Which? compared prices for 47 grocery and household items to see who came out on top. Aldi’s basket came in at £74.23 - which is £16.91 cheaper than Morrisons and £12.54 cheaper than Tesco.

Julie Ashfield, managing director of Buying at Aldi, said: “We know that across the nation many families are finding things tough due to the cost of living crisis. At Aldi, we’re determined to help by keeping costs low and quality high for our customers. We’re thrilled to yet again be named the UK’s cheapest supermarket.”
