Tesco Meal Deal Price Rise Stuns Shoppers Nationwide
Inflation Hits Tesco Meal Deals
Recent changes implemented by Tesco have supermarket shoppers in an uproar. The popular Tesco meal deal, which traditionally featured a main, a snack, and a drink for a set price, is now subject to price hikes.
Details of the Price Increase
- Standard meal deal rises from £3.40 to £3.60 for Clubcard members.
- Non-Clubcard holders now pay £4, up from £3.90.
These changes mark the first price increase since October 2022. Customers took to social media to express their outrage, with some calling for the return of the £3 meal deal.
Reactions from Shoppers
- Olivia Devereux-Evans expressed her frustration on X, stating she was 'fuming' about the new prices.
- Others echoed her sentiments, lamenting that they feel forced to accept the changes.
Competing Supermarkets Adjust Pricing
In addition to Tesco's adjustments, Sainsbury’s recently increased their meal deal prices, indicating a broader market trend amidst rising inflation.
Despite the backlash, Tesco maintains that the quality of their meal deals has improved alongside price changes, with promises of better ingredients and more meal options this summer.
