Tesco trials new 'avocado scanner
Tesco with a Clubcard has overtaken Asda to become the UK's cheapest supermarket for a 'big shop' in January, according to new analysis by Which?.
For a larger basket of 228 items, Tesco Clubcard prices averaged £588.96, narrowly beating Asda's £590.41, which had held the top spot for over a year.
Aldi maintained its position as the cheapest supermarket for a shorter list of 89 grocery items, with an average price of £164.74 in January, followed closely by Lidl.
Waitrose consistently remained the most expensive supermarket across both comparisons, with prices significantly higher than the cheapest options.
Which? highlighted the significant impact of loyalty schemes on grocery costs, noting that Tesco's Clubcard offers substantial savings but raises concerns about accessibility for all shoppers.
