According to data from consumer watchdog Which?, the discount grocer was found to be the least expensive for the seventh month in a row, closely followed by Lidl at £83.24.
For a basket of groceries which included products such as Heinz baked beans, milk and tea bags, Tesco came in third cheapest ahead of Asda, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons who all sat between £90 and £100.
At the top end was Ocado at £102.87 and Waitrose at £112.62.
However when comparing the cost of a larger trolley of 149 items, excluding Aldi and Lidl, Asda was found to be the least expensive for £355.62.

Waitrose was again the most expensive of the supermarket giants, the only one to cross the £400 barrier at £6.95 over.
Across all 12 months last year, Aldi was found to be the cheapest for seven, more than any other grocery retailer.
