- Consumer champion Which? has named Aldi the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket for February
- Shoppers can save over £24 weekly by switching from Tesco to Aldi
New research from consumer group Which? has revealed that Aldi was the UK’s cheapest supermarket in February, based on a basket of 89 popular grocery items.
