Full list of Asda food items reduced in price to ease cost of living

Asda has promised to lower prices on more than 100 food items to help ease the cost of living crisis. The reduced price items include Asda’s own products and brand names like John West Blue Dragon and Pataks, with items including fruit, vegetables, cereal, rice and cheese. The supermarket has vowed to keep the lower prices on the selected items permanent until the end of the year. Shoppers will be able to spot the discounted items in store and online by a "dropped and locked" logo. What are Asda’s new prices on selected items? Asda’s new prices includes diced chicken breast, 500g, reduced from £3.87 to £3.65, as well as Asda’s own-brand 750ml bleach, reduced from 80p to 75p. The supermarket’s easy cook 500g rice will fall from £1 to 75p, while Asda’s Cheerios (300g) and Shreddies (390g) will both drop from £2.15 to £2. However, it is important to note that this doesn’t necessarily mean it is the cheapest price available among the other supermarket chains. The Sun Online reports that the same size chicken breast is available at Tesco for £3.20 and Morrisons own brand thick bleach is just 49p - both cheaper than Asda. Althogugh the newspaper found Asda’s easy to cook rice was the cheapest at 75p for that size, but Aldi offers a larger 1kg bag for £1 which works out cheaper overall. What items will be reduced?

Shoppers can get up to 75% off products in some cases, so it’s worth hunting for these deals if you’re on a budget. The food is still perfect to eat but make sure you have enough time to eat it before it goes off. Use loyalty schemes Many supermarkets have schemes in place providing vouchers for money off your groceries. For example, Sainsbury’s runs its Nectar card reward scheme, where customers receive points every time they shop in stores. The scheme now offers personalised discounts based on customers’ shopping habits and claims you can save £200 a year on groceries. Morrisons’ has recently revamped its loyalty scheme too with customers offered instant rewards when they spend money in stores, while Teso shoppers can get cheaper prices with a Clubcard. Plan your meals Planning your meals in advance means that you can stick to a list of food you know you need and will save you money in the long run, according to Charlotte Jessop, who owns the money saving blog Looking After Your Pennies. She said: "One of the best ways to save money on food is to meal plan. This means that you only buy what you need and therefore stops you from throwing away as much. "If you combine this with checking your cupboards before you start your plan, you’ll find that you can save loads of money by only buying exactly what you need." Check price per quantity Ms Jessop also said it is worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision - a bigger box or packaging doesn’t always mean you will get more. She said: "Rather than looking at the total cost, I look at how much it costs per 100g say. This means that I can compare products more easily to check I am getting the best deal." Use food waste apps There are plenty of apps you can use that cut food waste and reduce your shopping bill for example Kitche. The app keeps track of the food you bought at the supermarket and lets you know when items are getting close to their sell by date - promising to save you £630 a year. The Too Good To Go app is also handy as it helps you buy food from shops including Morrisons, Greggs and Pret at a big discount. How much have food prices risen? Recent official data from the Office for National Statistics shows the cost of some food products like margarine and other vegetable fats have increased by 37.2% in the past year, while inflation has hit 7%. Pasta and couscous have gone up by 14.9%, and jam, marmalade and honey by 13.6%, while eggs are 8% more expensive than this time last year.
