We compared the same £5 shop from Tesco and Aldi
With the cost of living crisis many supermarket chains have launched budget ranges and many have been promoting offers and discounts. With that in mind, we decided to take £5 to Tesco to see how much we could get to stock our cupboards. Laycie Beck reports.
, as although the Clubcard is fantastic at reducing the prices of top brands, most of Tesco's own brand products already cost less than the reduced prices. I also decided to stay away from the yellow sticker section as although you can find bargains there, it is not guaranteed. This brought my total to £4.77 and although I could have got another tin I decided to stay on the side of caution in case something had been mispriced and went up at checkout or in case I needed the change later on. All in all I was pleasantly surprised at how much I could get for under £5, however I had avoided the meat and dairy products as although they add to many meals a block of cheese would have taken up most of my budget.
I was able to get the exact same products as I did at Tesco, except for the curry sauce. The closest products I could find at Aldi were a Korma, Tikka Masala or sweet and sour sauce which were all 85p, so I added one of the jars to my basket.
