A third who was in disbelief by the concept commented: ‘Is this a joke? I feel stupid if I try it but really want to.’

In the post, which has since racked up over 700 likes, Louise went on to explain her method to those eager to hear more.

‘Rub baking tray with the 2p and then wash in washing up liquid (as you would with daily dishes),’ she penned.

‘It works takes away the burnt marks left from baking/cooking. No more binning and replacing.’

However, it was too late for some, who admitted they had recently thrown out their old trays after struggling to remove the rust. 

‘Oh no I binned four yesterday!! Couldn’t get them clean enough,’ wrote one, while a second similarly penned: ‘I binned my tray last week because of this rust.’

A further explained: ‘Literally just bought new pans and threw my old ones. Will definitely give this a go.’  

Meanwhile, others expressed how excited they were to try the bargain trick out for themselves.

‘Running to get baking trays out,’ enthused one, while a second commented: ‘Love it, will be spending my day off tomorrow doing this.’ 

A delighted third added: ‘Omg!!!!! Louise I love you!!!!!!! I’m on it in the morning.’
