By switching to household staples from Lidl’s own-brand ranges over big-brand competitors, shoppers can cut their weekly staples shop by more than half– reducing costs from £48.22 to £23.65. With 18 weeks until Christmas, these 16 swaps can save customers £442.
Shoppers can snap up Lidl’s Good Housekeeping Approved Cien Pro Vitamin Shampoo, 300ml and Conditioner, 300ml for just £1.49 each. Compared with branded competitor Pantene at £2.70 (shampoo) and £3.85 (conditioner) per 300ml, Lidl customers can save £3.50 with every purchase of the duo.
Lidl’s Good Housekeeping Approved Maribel Premium Strawberry Extra Jam Conserve 450g, £1.79, comes in at almost half the price of big-brand Bonne Maman Strawberry Conserve 370g at £3.30 per jar – meaning shoppers can save a juicy £1.50 each time they make the swap.
Lidl’s Vemondo Barista Oat Milk 1L, £1.39 has been awarded a silver medal in The Grocer’s Own-Label awards – and can save shoppers over 80p when opting for this over Oatly’s Original Barista, 1L, £2.20.
The supermarket’s Deluxe Honey and Mustard Sausages, £2.49 have also gained a stellar spread of awards. From winning GHI best-budget sausages to BBC Good Food’s summer taste, these come in at a bargain 23% cheaper than Sainsbury’s Cumberland British Pork Chipolata sausages at £3.25.
Savvy shoppers could spend half the price on butter by opting for Lidl own brand Danpak Spreadable Butter 500g at a mere £2.19 per tub – compared with a whopping £4.69 for the equivalent weight of Lurpak spreadable.
In total, these swaps can save over £20 per week, and almost £450 by Christmas.
