Notes on comparison prices

It is important to note that we have included the lowest priced item that we could find in store. This is often based on the supermarkets own brand and saver range of products. It is important to note that Waitrose potato prices are slightly higher in support of our local farming industry.​

 

Please note that there are slight variants in weights of items at each store as all tend to offer different pack sizes, e.g. bags of potatoes range from 1.6kg - 2kg. Coffee prices are all based on 100g jars except for Alliance where the cheapest jar of coffee is a 200g jar.

​

Notes on Cheese prices!

Each store sells cheddar cheese in varying quantities so to ensure we're comparing like for like, we have calculated the price based on 500g although you may not necessarily find a 500g pack in all stores. For instance, 750g of cheese costs £5.50 at Waitrose, so we have divided £5.50 by 750 to calculate the cost per gram, then multiplied by 500 to calculate the cost per 500g.
