Tesco makes major price move in Express stores to match Aldi

The supermarket has expanded its Aldi Price Match scheme into more than 2,000 Tesco Express stores, meaning customers can now pick up key items at prices matched to Aldi without heading to a larger supermarket.

It marks the biggest expansion of the scheme since it launched in 2020, and is aimed at helping households manage rising costs while keeping the convenience of local shopping.

More than 200 products will be included, with items clearly marked in-store so shoppers can easily spot the deals.

Examples of price-matched products include:

• Tesco Penne Pasta Quills 500g – £0.69
• Tesco British Semi-Skimmed Milk (2 pints) – £1.20
• Tesco Iceberg Lettuce – £0.89
• Tesco Cauliflower – £1.19
• Tesco Broccoli 375g – £0.82
• Tesco Tuna Chunks in Spring Water 145g – £0.65
• Tesco Basmati Rice 1kg – £1.79
• Tesco Loose Red Peppers – £0.70
• Tesco Red Kidney Beans 400g – £0.39

The exact range will vary depending on store size and location, but all included items will feature the Aldi Price Match label on shelves.

Tesco UK chief executive Ashwin Prasad said the move is designed to give shoppers confidence they are getting good value, even in smaller convenience stores.

He said: “We know that household budgets are again under pressure, but we are committed to keeping the cost of the weekly food shop affordable for Tesco customers.

“By extending our Aldi Price Match scheme to Express stores we can now give customers the confidence that they can get great prices on a range of everyday products at Tesco, whether that’s in our large stores, online or in more than 2,000 of our local convenience stores.”
