Supermarket Price Review: Why is the weekly shop so expensive?

In recent months the weekly food shop has become less of a chore and more of a mission to try and get the best deals possible, whilst making sure you can still afford the essentials. As food prices have skyrocketed in recent months, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for many people to effectively budget as their food bill grows and wages stagnate.

The Office for Budget Responsibility predicted inflation to drop to 2.9% by the end of the year, but in the meantime, food prices have remained astronomically high. It is predicted that average shoppers could be spending an extra £811 on their groceries annually and has forced many on the breadline to resort to food banks or skipping meals.

We have taken a look at which basic food items have taken the biggest hit due to inflation, and how you can save money on your weekly shop.

What impact has inflation had on an average weekly shop?

Between March 2022 and March 2023 an average basket of shopping from Tesco increased by 25.5%, and 18.8% with a Clubcard.

According to the Consumer Price Index, inflation reached 10.4% in February, with milk (42.2% increase), olive oil (40.7% increase), and sugar (38.4% increase) seeing the biggest price hikes.

In addition to this, the price saving benefits of a Tesco Clubcard may not be as appealing as they once were, as in March 2023 you would only save a measly 20p on this basic basket of shopping. This is a Clubcard saving of just 0.9% which is far less that the 10.1% you could save with a Clubcard in September 2022.
