PRICE TRAP

Tesco Clubcard holders warned over shopping mistake that could mean you pay MORE

All of them sell cheese and tomato pizzas at this price, but if you're a meat eater, head to Asda and Aldi for pepperoni pizzas which cost the same.

The Sun's Lynsey Hope was a fan of Lidl's pizza when she put frozen pizzas to the test.

She said she could barely tell the difference between Lidl's pizza and the Goodfellas equivalent – which is £1.49 more expensive.

WINNER: Lidl

Fish fingers

Shoppers have been stunned by rising fish finger prices.

One Sainsbury's shopper said they nearly "fell to my knees" after seeing the price of a box of 30 fingers, for £7

Price of fish is going up partly because around 40% of our white fish comes from Russia – and it is now subject to a 35% tariff increase as a response to the war in Ukraine.

Head to Asda, where you can get a 250g pack of 10 for 69p under its Just Essentials range.

Morrisons is selling 250g boxes of 10 for 79p, and you'll be paying 80p for same weight boxes at Sainsbury's and Tesco.

WINNER: Asda

Chips

Recreate a Friday night supper from the chippy for less by buying some oven chips from the supermarket.

You can buy a 1kg bag of French Fries from Aldi for 89p – which was the cheapest bag we could find.

Tesco and Sainsbury's were both selling 1.5kg of chips for 99p, which means you technically get more in a bag for less money.

Splash out 1p more though and head to Waitrose for bags that cost £1 – Lynsey gave them top marks in her oven chips taste test.

WINNER: Tesco and Sainsbury's

Chicken nuggets

Chicken nuggets are a family favourite – but which shop sells them for less?

Asda is selling 320g bags of 20 nuggets for 85p – the cheapest we could find.

Next best value for money was Aldi's 450g packs of Rooster nuggets which works out at £1.39.

But Sun reporter Alice Grahns ranked Marks & Spencer's nuggets the best – but they come out much pricier at £3.50.

She said they were "tender" and "nice and crispy".

WINNER: Asda

Yorkshire puddings

A Sunday roast isn't complete without Yorkshire puddings.

If you're planning on whipping up a feast this weekend but you're on a budget, Sainsbury's is selling 15 in a 220g pack for 48p.

While Asda was selling 230g bags for 50p, it makes them the cheapest in terms of the amount you get in a packet.

Tesco were selling 230g bags for the same price too.

But Sun reporter Jess Clark thought Morrisons' packs for 85p were the best when she put supermarket own-brand puds to the test.

She thought they were "delicious".

WINNER: Asda and Tesco

Cornetto copycats

While the weather is still warm, you'll want some ice cream in the freezer.

Aldi is selling four chocolate and hazelnut cones for 95p – working out 22p per cone.

But when The Sun's Laura Stott put cones from supermarkets to the test, she loved Lidl's strawberry and vanilla Bon Gelati cones.

She said they were gooey and had "plenty of sauce".

You get six in a pack for £1.45 – working out at 24p a cone.

WINNER: Aldi

Burgers

There's still time to fire up the BBQ this summer.

No feast is complete without burgers, but who sells packs for less?

Aldi is selling packs of six for £1.79, working out at £5.23 per kilogram.

But you can get 10 in a 496g pack from Asda for £1.60 – working out less at £3.23 per kilogram.

Tesco is selling packs for the same price, which but you only get four – working out at £7.05 per kg.

WINNER: Asda

Sausages

Get yourself some bangers to put on the grill too.

You can get 20 sausages from Asda's Smart Price range for £1.21.

Tesco is also selling packs with the same quantity of sausages in for £1.25.

While Sainsbury's sells them for £1.50.

WINNER: Asda

Mixed Veg

Whacking a pack of mixed veg in the freezer is a good way of making sure you're getting your five a day.

Asda sells 1kg packs for 72p.

Sainsbury's, Aldi and Tesco sells the same quantity for 79p.

There's not much in mixed veg, so we would recommend going to Asda to save money.

WINNER: Asda

Ice cream tubs

You'll want to have a tub of vanilla ice cream in the freezer for a late night snack or for a quick post-BBQ dessert.

Head to Asda and Tesco for 2litre tubs that will set you back just £1.02.

While Sainsbury's is selling the same sized tubs for £1.19.

WINNER: Asda and Tesco
