It’s no secret that school uniforms can end up costing an arm and a leg. But one particular high street retailer has done something a little different with its school trousers to save you some cash – and mums have only just discovered it.

It turns out there’s an amazing feature on Marks and Spencer school trousers for when your little one grows out of them.The trousers have a secret 3cm hem, which can be extended after growth spurts – genius.

Simply unpick the stitching, remove the thread and iron down the extra 3cm – and voilà, your youngster’s trousers can now last them the full year.This life hack is all thanks to a savvy mum, who took to Facebook to reveal the secret on the Family Lockdown Tips & Ideas group.
