For the fifteenth month in a row, Aldi has been officially named the cheapest supermarket in the UK.
As families face the added expense of getting children ready to go back to school or university, all whilst trying to keep household costs down, Aldi shoppers can be confident they’re getting the highest quality products at the best possible prices – month in, month out.
Consumer group, Which? conducted its monthly Cheapest Supermarket price comparison, looking at the cost of a basket of items, including groceries and household essentials.
The latest research shows that Aldi was a huge £14.30 cheaper than the most expensive supermarket, Waitrose, for an equivalent basket of items in August.
Which? also revealed Aldi to be £8.79 cheaper than Tesco and £10.16 cheaper than Morrisons per basket.
Julie Ashfield, Managing Director of Buying at Aldi, said that as summer draws close and families begin preparing to return to school or university, August and September can represent financially challenging months for many. However, with fifteen consecutive months as the UK’s cheapest supermarket, families can rest assured that they can rely on us for great quality products at the lowest possible prices and that Aldi is committed to supporting its customers in these testing times.
The news comes as students up and down the country prepare to fly the nest. As the cost of kitting out new digs can quickly add up, Aldi has launched a must-have range of student essentials featuring everything from bedding and décor to pots, pans, and air fryers, with prices starting from as little as £1.99. Available in stores now.
