Is Aldi or Lidl cheaper? Lots of families will be wanting to know the answer given how high food prices have been since the cost of living crisis hit. 

When it comes to how to save money on food, shopping at one of the budget retailers like Aldi and Lidl is a great shout. Ed Fleming, managing director at money-saving website Savoo, says: "While you might not be able to find your favourite name brands, discount supermarkets produce their own versions of popular products, allowing them to offer a lower retail price. The warehouse-style supermarket approach in which produce is displayed on its original pallet might not appear as enticing, but this reduces shelf stacking time and allows it to offset staff costs and keep food prices down.”
