CHRISTMAS DINNER IS CHEAPER THAN LAST TWO YEARS, REVEALS GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

Hosting Christmas dinner for your family this year? Well you can breathe a sigh of relief as Good Housekeeping has revealed your shopping basket will be cheaper than a comparative shop in 2018 and 2017. 

The brand has released its seasonal shopping data for the 11th year running and instead of the usual news that consumers can expect their food bill to have increased, it has decreased.

 
 

Christmas dinner for a family of eight people is 8 per cent lower in 2019, than last year with all items decreasing in price apart from carrots, which have increased by 5p, and Christmas cake, which stayed the same price. 

 
 

Good Housekeeping looked at the prices of 11 items including a whole turkey (at least 3.5kg), 880g potatoes (Maris Piper or King Edward), 880g sprouts, carrots and parsnips, 170g stuffing mix, a jar of cranberry sauce, a Christmas pudding, a Christmas cake, a jar of brandy butter and eight mince pies.

 

It found that if consumers are doing a one-stop shop, Aldi is the cheapest place to go, totalling £24.78 for the whole basket (£3.10 per head) followed by Iceland, which comes to £25.25 (£3.16 pp).
