McDonald’s lovers have been airing their shock and disappointment at the soaring prices of their golden arch favourites1 – with prices of popular items rising up to 112% amid the cost of living crisis. Luckily, Aldi’s range of McDonald’s-inspired treats are sure to keep cravings satisfied and costs low.
McDonald’s hash browns have risen to an eye-watering £1.89 when ordered via Just Eat – for just one portion! Aldi shoppers, however, can buy a box of its 10 Breakfast Hash Browns for the same price.
One customer on social media said: “How did a hash brown get so expensive, it used to be 99p” Whilst another said: “wait, this can’t be real.”
Over 5,000 Fakeaway items flew from Aldi shelves for every hour that stores were open last week. And it’s no surprise why with these savings:
