Aldi was the cheapest, with the total shop coming to £74.81 – beating their rival bargain supermarket Lidl by £2.69. The most expensive supermarket in the monthly price comparison was Waitrose. At £96.59, the same shop was £21.78 more expensive at Waitrose than at Aldi.
Supermarket and average basket totals are:
- Aldi – £74.81
- Lidl – £77.50
- Sainsbury’s – £85.25
- Tesco – £85.32
- Asda – £85.81
- Morrisons – £89.01

Julie Ashfield, managing director of buying at Aldi, says, “As the cost of living crisis continues, we remain committed to keeping prices low and quality high. The latest findings from Which? show that once again customers can save money by choosing to shop with us. We’re thrilled to have been consistently named cheapest supermarket for the last nine months.”

I normally see what supermarkets are doing on offers before I go shopping. Sainsburys with Smartshop is a good way to reduce spending on certains goods and the last 3 weeks I’ve had coupons of ” Spend £40 and recieve £8 worth of nectar points “. Tesco’s clubcard has been really lacking lately. I may try Aldi at some point.
