Tesco drops price of key shopping staple for first time since start of pandemic, making it cheaper than Aldi and Lidl

Tesco has dropped the price of a key shopping item for the first time since the pandemic began.

Its reduction in the cost of milk is the first time the price has dropped since May 2020, just weeks after Covid took hold.

It means a four pint bottle has reduced from £1.65 to £1.55, two pints from £1.30 to £1.25 and a pint now 90p instead of 95p. Both Aldi and Lidl are still selling them at the higher price.
