Shoppers surprised as price of teabags soars to £8.25

Shoppers have been left surprised by the price of teabags in a supermarket. Morrisons is currently selling a pack of Yorkshire Tea 240 teabags for £8.25. A photo of the packs was shared in a Facebook group alongside the comment "Is this a joke spotted in Morrisons yesterday box of 240 tea bags!"

The price is confirmed on the Morrisons website, where the pack of 240 is listed for £8.25, reports MEN. The smaller 160 pack is usually £5.99, but is currently on offer for £4, while the pack of 80 is £3.29 and the smallest 40-pack £1.99.

That means that buying two 160-bag packs, at a total of £8 for 320 bags, works out cheaper than buying one 240-bag box. And Morrisons has a 480 bag pouch of Yorkshire Tea teabags for £11 - the same price as Tesco and Iceland and similar to Amazon.
