We tried cheap instant porridge from Asda, Sainsbury's, Tesco and Morrisons

When the weather turns cooler, a big bowl of porridge is a hearty way to warm up and this week we’ve been comparing budget instant oats.

Like most products in the supermarket, the price of porridge oats has been creeping up and some bags or boxes of oats will set you back around £2 or more. But you can find cheaper alternatives, thanks to supermarket own brand and value products.

Over the last few months, as we've seen the cost of living shooting up, we've been comparing low cost everyday items including tea and coffee, chocolate, cereal, baked beans and even toilet roll. This week, we've been testing out cheap instant porridge oats, with packets ranging from 45p to £1.
