UK's cheapest supermarket named and it could save you £66
Major UK supermarkets have been ranked from cheapest to most expensive
The cheapest supermarket to do your weekly shop has been named. Aldi has once again taken the title as Which? branded it the cheapest supermarket of the month.
It came out cheapest for a list of 95 times, when compared to other major UK supermarkets. Aldi's shop came to a total of £163.34, while competitor Lidl was just £1.58 more with a total of £164.92.
Lidl now has its own rewards app, Lidl Plus, which meant the gap shrank further once it had been applied.
When using Lidl Plus, the total came to £164.79, which is just £1.45 more than Aldi.
The consumer website found that Sainsbury's Nectar card deals meant it managed to come in cheaper than Tesco in the month of June.
Sainsbury's had 27 loyalty discounts, seeing it come to a total of £193.30.
Tesco's Clubcard pricing came in at £194.67. However, for customers shopping at Sainsbury's without a loyalty card, it became one of the most expensive shops at £203.83.
Asda managed to hold onto fourth place at £190.39, while Morrisons (£198.53) also proved cheaper than the standard, non-loyalty prices of both Tesco (£200.63) and Sainsbury's.
Waitrose was the most expensive supermarket, at £229.88, which comes in at 40.73 per cent more expensive than Aldi for the same items.
The list of 95 items included a mix of own-brand and branded goods, such as Birds Eye peas, Cathedral City cheddar and Kellogg's corn flakes.
Reena Sewraz, Which? Retail Editor, said: "While inflation remains stable for now, many households will be worried about prices going up in the coming months.
"The discounters remain the cheapest supermarkets for everyday essentials, while at the larger supermarkets the massive gap between member and non-member prices shows that retailers are increasingly locking their best value away behind a digital wall.
"When walking into one supermarket over another – or forgetting your loyalty card – can mean paying over 40 per cent more for basically the same everyday essentials, switching where you shop is still the fastest way to slash your weekly grocery bill."
