Tesco has said it will match Aldi prices on hundreds of its own brand products, starting today.

From Thursday 5 March, own brand products from potatoes to butter and mince will have their prices linked to Aldi's, while branded goods such as Silver Spoon sugar and Warburton's bread will also be linked.

Tesco Chief Customer Officer Alessandra Bellini said: “Our customers tell us they want the most competitive prices on the things they buy regularly. 

"This campaign will help time-poor and budget savvy customers get Tesco products at Aldi prices on products that matter to them.”

Customers will be able to see in store which products are matched, thanks to a new symbol appearing on the shelves and online – a red bubble with a large tick.  These will be displayed at the shelf edge and will be called out online.
