As lots of companies revert back to office working again, many people are starting to go back to buying their lunch on the go, rather than making it while working from home. Supermarket meal deals have always been a popular option but with the cost of living crisis making money tight, shoppers want to know where is best to make their cash stretch.
To make the decision easier, we put four high street stores to the test to compare their meal deal options - Boots, Tesco, Sainsbury's and Co-op. All of their meal deals are priced at £4 or less for a lunch item, snack and a drink, but some delivered better choice and taste than others.
The first place I decided to try was my local Sainsbury’s convenience store. When walking in you notice that there is a wide variety of options you can choose from, including premade pots of salad if that’s to your liking, and you can even get a bakery item as your snack.
