Aldi crowned cheapest supermarket 11th month in a row

Aldi has been named the cheapest supermarket in the UK for the 11th month in a row by Which.  

The findings come from the consumer group’s monthly Cheapest Supermarket price comparison, which examines the cost of a basket of items, including groceries and household essentials.   

Its latest research found that in April, Aldi was £17.34 cheaper than the most expensive supermarket, Waitrose, for an equivalent basket of items.  

Which also revealed Aldi was £8.10 cheaper than Tesco and £11.47 cheaper than Morrisons per basket.  

Julie Ashfield, managing director of Buying at Aldi, said: “At Aldi we believe access to great quality food and drink is a right not a privilege. 

“Shoppers want to know they are getting great quality produce at the best possible prices. So, to have Which? name us the UK’s cheapest supermarket for the eleventh month in a row is reassuring for our shoppers.”
