UK Cost of Living: Grocery Prices

Cost of Groceries at Popular UK Grocery Stores


The cost of groceries in the UK can vary depending on the supermarket you shop at, the type of products you buy, and where you live. However, in general, the following table provides a comparison of the cost of groceries at some of the most popular UK grocery stores:



As you can see, Aldi is the cheapest, followed by Tesco, while Waitrose is the most expensive supermarket.


Another factor that can affect the cost of your groceries is where you live. Groceries tend to be more expensive in urban areas than in rural areas. This is because the cost of rent and other overhead costs are higher in urban areas, which is passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices.


If you are an international job seeker considering a move to the UK, it is a good idea to do some research on the cost of groceries in the area where you will be living. This will help you to budget for your living expenses and make sure that you can afford to buy the food you need.
