Aldi’s latest price drop on household staples will include cereal, fruit and snacks. 

A nature's pack of seven midi bananas is now 88p down from 92p while Four Seasons Blueberries are now 10p cheaper at £2.19 instead of £2.29. 

Snack fans will be pleased to learn that Specially Selected Belgian Chocolate Cookies are no longer £1.49 but almost 25p cheaper at £1.25.

The discount supermarket has recently announced a price drop of more than 150 items, one of its biggest round of price cuts.

It was top of the monthly ranking in September, August and July.

It was also named the cheapest supermarket of the year in 2021 and 2022.

However, the supermarket has come up against stiff competition from popular stores. 

Last month Morrisons announced plans to cut prices of over 170 items to help customers cope with the rising cost of living. 

Asda has slashed the prices of a whopping 425 items including branded and own-label products. 

Even M&S are locking the prices of 140 popular food favourites keeping them low until after Christmas.
