Aldi has promised to 'keep prices as low as possible'
The country is currently in the midst of cost of living crisis which is seeing many households unable to keep up with the rising costs of essential items. Inflation is seeing food prices soar as well, making the weekly shop more expensive than ever before, but is it possible to do a weekly shop for £5.
The consumer group compared a basket of 47 items from different shops and found Tesco, Asda, Morrisons and Sainsbury's to be 18% more expensive than the basket from Aldi. CEO of Aldi UK and Ireland, Giles Hurley, said he would do "whatever it takes" to maintain this discount and to "keep prices as low as possible."One shopper shared their weekly haul at Aldi on Tik Tok, which came to just £4.97.
A reporter at MyLondon decided to see if she could do a £5 weekly shop with different items, and ended up adding enough for seven dinners for one person to her basket. The meal plan started with baked beans on baked potatoes with crispy leaf salad . They then planned to eat the chicken goujons with garden peas and home-made carrot chips on Saturday and a 66p pepperoni pizza on Sunday. This left them enough to pay for a 36p loaf of bread.
