The budget supermarket to put on your radar 🔎
Whether it's basics like bread and milk, or family favourites like fish fingers and beans, prices of most things are going up. With families struggling to make ends meet, many people are changing the way they shop - and for some that means changing where they shop.
Heron sells everything from frozen food and cupboard staples, to fridge essentials, fruit and veg, and a whole lot more. I visited the branch in Tyldesley, Wigan, to see what bargains I could pick up and I was surprised by just how cheap many of the products were. Not everything is cheaper mind. A Kingsmill 800g loaf was a pretty standard £1.15, while a two-litre bottle of semi-skimmed milk cost £1.55 - more than most supermarkets are now charging, with four-pint bottles for £1.35.
There were large packs of frozen food under Heron's XSELL brand, such as a 1.5kg bag of waffles for £1.75, but even the well-known brands were cheap - like the pack of 10 Young's fish fingers I picked up for £1, paying 25p less than the 'great value' price it had on the box. As for the fruit and veg, the variety wasn't huge and some didn't seem as fresh as you can buy from the bigger supermarkets, but there were still some good buys to be had - like a four-pack of Pink Lady apples for £1.89 and the 1kg bag of Royal Gala apples for an impressive £1.69.
