Aldi is selling Xmas dinner veggies from just 19p a bag
The budget supermarket has entered the festive price war by making its festive trimmings the cheapest on the market
ALDI has slashed the price of its Christmas veggies - with some bags on sale for just 19p.
The budget supermarket has become the latest retailer to chop it prices on festive trimmings as the battle for Christmas shoppers hots-up.
Last week Tesco and Lidl revealed they would be cutting their prices down to 29p a bag.
And from today, Asda will be selling it veggies at just 20p.
Now Aldi has entered the price war - undercutting its rivals by flogging its award-winning Brussels sprouts, parsnips, carrots and broccoli for just 19p - and making it the cheapest place to pick up your veg this Christmas.
The promotion which kicks-off today and will be available in stores across the country.

More on money
Last Christmas, Aldi, Lidl, and Asda all cut the price of their veggies to 19p - so there's plenty of time for the other supermarkets to slash their prices even more.
Julie Ashfield, of Aldi, said: “Here at Aldi, we’re committed to ensuring our customers get everything they need for their Christmas dinner, at unbeatable prices.
"What’s more, we’ve been named Fresh Produce Supermarket of the Year at the FPC Awards for the third year running, so customers can rest assured that their festive feast will be of the highest quality."
Here's how to cut the cost of your grocery shop
WE spoke to Hannah Maundrell, editor of Money.co.uk, about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:
- Write yourself a list - Only buy items that you need. If it isn't on your list, don't put it in the trolley
- Create a budget - Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
- Never shop hungry - you are far more likely to buy more food if your tummy is rumbling
- Don't buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit - The extra they'll charge for chopping can be eye watering
- Use social media - follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
- Be disloyal - You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
- Check the small print - It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
- Use your loyalty cards - Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently - work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards
