One supermarket beat all other rivals to be crowned the cheapest place to buy a basket of shopping in March.
Lidl trumped Asda, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Morrisons and Waitrose with the relatively low cost for a basket of 33 common items earlier this month. Many shoppers will be on the hunt for a bargain as food prices soar to record highs amid a spiralling cost-of-living crisis.
A basket of 33 common items, including PG Tips, semi-skimmed milk and baby potatoes, cost £53.06 in Lidl, while a basket of the same 33 goods cost £85.40 in Waitrose, more than 60% more than in the cheapest store. The same basket of shopping would cost £63.26 at Sainsbury's, £64.55 at Tesco, £72.73 at Morrisons, according to The Grocer.
