With Christmas just around the corner, Britons need more help than ever with their grocery shopping as food prices continue to soar. Supermarkets, such as Lidl, know that this is one of the most expensive periods of the year for most families.

With just over two weeks to go until Christmas, Lidl has announced it is cutting the prices of its vegetables to just 19p.

This means that a family of six can enjoy a full Christmas dinner for less than £16.50.

The retailer has reduced the price of multiple products, including its British Carrots, British Parsnips, British Mini Roasts, British Swede, and British Brussels Sprouts – all to 19p.

Additionally, savvy shoppers can pick up a great value turkey, Yorkshire puddings, stuffing, and gravy granules to complete their Christmas dinner.

In essence, Lidl has everything households need now to cook a fantastic Christmas dinner.

Ryan McDonnell, Chief Executive Officer at Lidl GB, commented on the price reductions.

He said: “This year, like always, we want to help shoppers enjoy the highest quality products for the best value.

“We know everyone wants to enjoy a special Christmas meal together, which is why we’re offering Christmas roast dinner for less than £2.75 per head. As we look ahead to next year, we remain committed to offering the best value to customers up and down the country.”
