Which? investigated every day throughout July, checking the prices of 20 food, drink and household items at every major UK supermarket.

Its price comparison basket consisted of a combination of own-label and branded products, including groceries and household essentials, with Aldi coming the cheapest at £23.59.

The same shopping cost 7% more at Sainsbury’s and 15% more at Tesco. The independent consumer group’s research also found Aldi to be £7.82 cheaper than the most expensive supermarket for an equivalent basket of items.

Julie Ashfield, managing director of Buying at Aldi, said:“We’re proud to be recognised for our consistent commitment to delivering our customers the best possible prices.

“Being named the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket yet again, marks our eighth win since July 2020 and we’re delighted that throughout a difficult time we’ve been able to make life a little easier for our customers.”
