Major supermarkets have cut costs of ingredients such as bread following a meeting in the Dail.
Representatives from leading supermarkets were invited to the Dail yesterday as concern grows over inflation. Politicians such as Sinn Fein TD Louise O'Reilly previously estimated that shopping bills could increase by as much as €1,200 per year, if current prices remain unaltered for consumers.
Tesco has already slashed its bread prices by 10 percent, alongside Aldi. The price change in Aldi will apply to all its own brand bread products.
