Tesco announces major change to prices in some of its shops

Tesco has announced price cuts to more than 200 own-brand and branded products in its Express convenience stores. Milk, bread, pasta and coffee are among 222 household essentials which have been reduced in price by an average of more than 10% in Tesco Express stores, ensuring that customers across the UK will benefit from even better value at Tesco.

They come in the wake of more than 2,800 price cuts Tesco has made across its stores in recent months. Customers will pay £1.45 for a four-pint bottle of milk at their local Tesco Express store (down from £1.55) and a Tesco Toastie White Thick White Loaf is also 10p cheaper at just 75p. There are even bigger savings on Tesco Chicken Breast Portions (300g), which have dropped in price by 25p to just £2.25 and a 200g jar of Tesco Gold Instant Coffee now also costs 25p less at just £2.25.

Among the branded products with price cuts are Warburtons White Sliced Sandwich Rolls, with the price of a six-pack cut by 10p to just £1.20 and Domestos Original Bleach 750ml, which is now just £1.19 in Express stores after an 11p price cut.

Tesco CEO Ken Murphy said: “Today’s round of price cuts on more than 200 lines in our Express stores underlines our commitment to offering great value to Tesco customers. Whether you are picking up coffee and milk for the office or a loaf of bread and a tin of soup on the way home, our Express stores offer both convenience and great value.”
