A supermarket which has been most expensive for basics over the last month has slashed prices for Easter . We reported last week how, despite Tesco having seven out of eight products in our shopping comparison matched to Aldi, was still working out dearest of the six main supermarkets . It retains that position this week, but there's some good news for shoppers as it's among a number of stores to slash the price of vegetables for the bank holiday weekend. Among the deals at Tesco are 2kg bags of potatoes, 800g bags of carrots and a kg of onions, all for just 15p each. You can also pick up a swede or white cabbage for the same price.

Despite the reductions, Tesco remains most expensive in this week's comparison, which has tracked the prices of the same eight products at the six main supermarkets for the last two years. It's the cost of its chicken breasts - at £2.60 for a 300g pack compared with £2.35 at Aldi - that hikes its bill for the items to £12.47. Other products in the basket are tea bags, milk, bread, butter, coffee, beans and mince.

Tesco was the first to match Aldi, before Sainsbury's jumped on board. Now Asda and Morrisons have launched their own schemes - matching both Aldi and Lidl. The shops we did at both stores showed the number of products they do actually match is limited and it had little impact on the overall bills. Lidl remains cheapest in our weekly price check, with a bill of £12.02, closely followed by Aldi's £12.04. Sainsbury's is third cheapest at £12.23, followed by Asda at £12.33 and Morrisons at £12.37. Aldi disputes the findings of our comparison, saying we do not compare like-for-like products or take into account 'the higher quality' of its products, such as Aldi beans being 20g heavier than Sainsbury's or Aldi teabags being 'better quality than the comparative products used'. Asda also disagrees with our comparison and says that our small sample of products does not represent the fuller picture of prices and do not account for its deals. The supermarket says that, across the board, its Just Essentials range is the largest and cheapest available, alongside Aldi's. Aldi says that price match schemes 'apply to a tiny proportion' of what the bigger supermarkets sell, and while they try to match its prices or its quality, the 'efficiency' of its business model means they 'can never match us on both'. An Aldi spokesperson said: “Customers know the only place you get Aldi prices is at Aldi, which is why millions of shoppers have switched from the traditional full-price supermarkets to us. “We’re proud to have now been named the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket by Which? for three years running and our promise to our customers is that they will always make significant savings every time they shop with Aldi.” The full list is as follows: Lidl Loaf of white bread 800g - 45p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee 200g - £1.99 Teabags 240 - £2.65 / equates to £1.77 for 160 Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 420g tin - 28p Chicken 300g - £2.35 Mince 500g 25% fat - £2.29 Total £12.02 Aldi Loaf of white bread 800g - 45p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee 200g - £1.99 Teabags 160 - £1.79 Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 420g tin - 28p Chicken 300g - £2.35 Mince 500g 25% fat - £2.29 Total £12.04 Aldi is second cheapest in our shopping comparison (Image: Manchester Family/MEN) Sainsbu ry's Loaf of white bread 800g - 45p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee 200g - £1.99 Teabags 160 - £1.79 Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 400g tin - 27p Chicken 300g - £2.35 Mince 500g 20% fat - £2.49 Total £12.23 Asda Loaf of white bread 800g (Just Essentials) - 45p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee 200g (2 x 100g Just Essentials) - £1.98 Teabags 160 (4 x 40-pack Just Essentials) - £1.60 Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 410g tin (Just Essentials) - 27p Chicken 300g - £2.65 Mince 500g 20% fat -£2.49 Total £12.33 Asda is third most expensive (Image: Manchester Family/MEN) Morrisons Loaf of white bread 800g - 75p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee (2 x 100g) - £1.98 Teabags 160 (2 x 80-pack Savers) - £1.58 Savers Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 410g tin - 27p Chicken 300g - £2.65 for 330g, equates to £2.41 for 300g Mince 500g 20% fat - £2.49 Total £12.37 Tesco Loaf of white bread 800g - 45p Milk 2 pints - £1.20 Coffee 200g (2 x 100g) - £1.98 Teabags 160 (2 x 80-pack) - £1.78 Salted butter 250g - £1.69 Beans 420g tin - 28p Chicken 300g - £2.60 Mince 500g 20% fat - £2.49 Total £12.47
