Sainsbury's follows Tesco in cutting price of supermarket staple

Sainsbury's has announced it will cut down the price of a supermarket staple, supposedly following in Tesco's footsteps.

The supermarket giant announced that it will cut the price of milk by 5p a pint. It comes after Tesco announced it would cut the price of milk in its store by 10p.

The change was announced as Britain experiences its highest level of food inflation since 1978, with the latest figures revealing that food prices increased 18.2 per cent from last year. During this period, milk prices have risen by 43 per cent alongside many other household staples.
