✅ Compare Supermarket Prices UK: Best Comparison Sites & Apps (2026)

What are good supermarket price comparison sites?

MySupermarket shut down back in March 2020, and honestly? Nothing has properly replaced it. I still get asked how to compare supermarket prices in the UK, so I’ve retested everything currently out there in 2026 – sites, apps, and Which?’s paid tool – to tell you what’s actually worth your time.

❓How to compare supermarket prices following MySupermarket closure?

The quick answer: there’s no single free UK site or app that builds a full basket and compares it instantly across Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Aldi and Morrisons with loyalty pricing correctly applied. That kind of full-basket comparison has got harder, not easier, since MySupermarket closed – more on why below. But there are several solid tools depending on what you actually need, and I use a mix of them myself.

Basketr – the newest one worth knowing about

Supermarkets Compared: Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Ocado, M&S, Waitrose, Iceland, Aldi, Lidl, Coop, Dunnes and Heron Foods.

Basketr is the closest thing I’ve found to a MySupermarket-style tool in 2026. It compares 100,000+ products across 13 supermarkets, and its receipt-scanning feature is super clever – photograph your last shop and it’ll show you where the same basket would have cost less. Worth knowing it’s aggregating publicly available pricing rather than pulling live feeds directly from retailers, so double-check anything time-sensitive on the retailer’s own site before you buy:

Which? – useful for the big picture, not your specific basket

If you’re already a Which? member, their monthly supermarket comparison is worth checking – it’s one of the few pieces of research still tracking prices at scale every month. It’s behind their paywall and only compares a fixed list of 95-225 items rather than your actual shopping list, so it tells you which supermarket tends to be cheapest overall rather than what you personally would save. Currently as of June 2026 the cheapest is ALDI (as shown on the table at the top of this page). I personally wouldn’t want to pay £9.99 per month (or £44.5 per year) – for this service alone. But I guess if there are any valid reasons to get Witch membership this is one more nice tool to have to use in the price of the actual membership:-)

PriceLens

Supermarkets Compared: Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Lidl, Waitrose, Ocado, B&M *& Poundland.

The website allows you compare grocery prices across 9 British supermarkets including B&M and Poundland. You can build a shopping list and find the cheapest supermarket for your whole basket. Prices are updated daily:

Allsupers – decent for a full basket total

Supermarkets Compared: Aldi, ASDA, Coop, Iceland, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s Tesco, Waitrose.

Allsupers lets you build a shopping list and see a total across eight supermarkets, refreshed daily and free with no account needed. It won’t catch loyalty-only pricing, but for comparing standard shelf prices across a full trolley, it’s one of the more usable free options going.

Trolley.co.uk – still my top pick for single items

Supermarkets Compared: ASDA, Morrisons, Coop, Boots, Superdrug, Waitrose, Amazon & eBay.

Trolley (formerly Supermarketwatch) has been the most consistent survivor of the MySupermarket era, and it’s held up well into 2026. It compares prices and shows historical trends across thousands of products, and it’s genuinely useful if you want to check whether “on offer” actually means cheaper than usual before you buy. Free, no sign-up required, and there’s a browser extension that flags cheaper alternatives while you shop online. It also includes Amazon, in fact it feels like this site works like CamelCamcelCamel just for mainstream supermarkets in the UK 🙂

⚡Latest Deals app – good for stock checks and unit pricing

Supermarkets Compared: Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Iceland and Waitrose.

This one’s been around since shortly after MySupermarket closed and it’s still ticking along. It’s ok as it’s free and easy to use. It covers most of the top supermarkets but it doesn’t calculate the total basket price. You can only compare 1 item price at a time. It groups matching products together and shows price-per-kg/ml so you’re comparing like for like, plus live online stock – handy if you’re trying to work out whether an item is even available before you commit to a shop. Downside: it doesn’t include Clubcard or Nectar pricing, and Lidl isn’t covered.

🦕Comparasaurus (LIDL & ALDI!) – patchy, use with caution

Supermarkets Compared: Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, LIDL, ALDI, Iceland and Waitrose.

I used to recommend Comparasaurus app alongside Latest Deals because it was one of the few tools including Aldi and Lidl. Reviews since have been mixed, with several users reporting it hasn’t been reliably updated. I’d try it, but don’t rely on it as your only tool.

Compare The Trolley

The site helps you plan your grocery shop before you go. You can easily compare the baskets totals across 5 supermarkets, check loyalty price and stay within your budget. It is the equivalent of MySupermarket really.

❓Why full-basket comparison got harder, not easier

If you remember MySupermarket, you’ll remember it let you search once and see your whole basket priced across 14+ supermarkets instantly. Nothing has fully replaced that, and there’s a real reason why: supermarket pricing itself has changed shape since 2020.

• Tesco and Sainsbury’s now gate most of their best prices behind loyalty cards. Clubcard Prices and Nectar Prices can be 20-40% cheaper than the shelf price, but a comparison tool that doesn’t factor in your card membership will show you an artificially high Tesco or Sainsbury’s price.
• Asda and Morrisons work differently again – rewards land in a digital “pot” rather than coming off at the till, which makes clean comparison even trickier.
• Lidl doesn’t provide a consistent live pricing feed to third-party tools, which is why it’s often missing or patchy on comparison sites.
• Regional and express-store pricing differences mean the price near you isn’t always the price a national comparison tool shows.

None of that means comparing prices is pointless – it just means no single free tool does all the work for you the way MySupermarket did. A combination (Trolley or Basketr for individual products, your loyalty apps for the discounted price, Which? for the monthly overview) gets you most of the way there.

❓ What is the best supermarket comparison site or tool?

I’d say the answer to this question is subjective. If we look at the total number of supermarkets covered, Basketr is clearly the best because it scans grocery prices across 13 major supermarkets. If you want fresh data, though, PriceLens says it refreshes its feed daily, and it also checks Poundland and B&M. If you live close to just one or two supermarkets, you may prefer sites that compare fewer supermarkets anyway. Luckily, we now have a few sites that are similar to what MySupermarket used to do — namely, compare whole baskets which helps to make the decsion where to go for any specific grocery needs.

❓ Which supermarket is actually cheapest in the UK in 2026?

In 2026 ALDI was named the cheapest supermarket as per Which? latest report. In fact, ALDI has been crowned the cheapest all the time since I have been tracking the chepaest supermarket reports so since 2022 at least….

Based on data from the Government and Which the cheapest UK’s supermarkets have been named. The winner changes depending on how the results are calculated but as per Which analysis (June 2026) the cheapest supermarkets have been continuously – at least since 2022 at least:

• Aldi
• Lidl
• ASDA

Based on Which?’s ongoing monthly tracking (200 branded items & own-brand items prices compared daily at 8 mainstream supermarkets in the UK: Aldi, Asda, Lidl, Morrisons, Ocado, Sainsbury’s, Tesco and Waitrose)Aldi has held the cheapest spot for a typical smaller everyday shop for most of the past year, with Lidl close behind – the gap between the two discounters is usually only a few pounds. The site is trying to work out the cost per item and inform you about the average prices.

Results fluctuate all the time depend on the produce, its quantity, and report methodology.

One would say that LIDL or ALDI are probably the cheapest but I don’t think it’s the case as they have limited amounts of produce in their shops compared to the bigger players so that comparison is not a fair one.

For a wider branded shopping list that includes things Aldi and Lidl don’t stock, the picture shifts: Tesco with Clubcard has recently overtaken Asda for the first time in over a year, while Waitrose remains consistently the most expensive.

Having said that a basket of fruit and vegetables from LIDL or ALDI may be actually cheaper than their equivalent from the bigger chains. It’s best to check our desires to buy products and then work out where to shop. I personally love Ocado but my husband loves to shop at Morrisons…

Lately, I can see some great deals on Amazon and I always bring supplements and nuts from Poland (well when baggage space allows) as usual, that’s the cheapest over there when compared to the UK.

The honest takeaway from years of doing this myself: which supermarket is cheapest for you depends entirely on whether you buy own-brand basics or specific branded products, and whether you’re actually using your loyalty card every time. Chasing the “official cheapest supermarket” headline matters less than checking your own regular basket.

❓How to save on food shop spending?

• Use your loyalty cards, every time. Clubcard and Nectar prices genuinely move the needle – it’s the single biggest change in UK grocery pricing since MySupermarket closed.
• Split your shop. Discounters for the weekly staples, your usual supermarket for specific brands or things Aldi/Lidl don’t stock.
• Check the World Food aisle, e.g. I buy Polish kefir there because it’s the same quality as the British version for less, comparing unit price rather than headline price.
• Sign up for a shop & scan panel like Shop & Scan or Nielsen – each shop earns points you can exchange for reward vouchers. I’ve written about how that works here. I usually ‘earn’ £60 per year that way:-) 
• Use surplus food apps like Too Good To Go or OLIO for genuinely steep discounts on food that would otherwise go to waste. Always compare unit price, not pack price – a bigger pack isn’t automatically better value, especially with promotional pricing on smaller sizes.
• Supermarket swapping from time to time may give you an idea of how the same item is priced elsewhere.
• Do not forget about SAVERS & Pound Shops:-)–> that is admittedly more suited to cosmetics shopping though.
• Finally, use Facebook groups related to saving money in various supermarkets

Where do I shop?

Lately I am a fan of Ocado even though it is one of the most expensive one as per the table at the top of this page – but I noticed that when I go for offers and discounted items I am not missing out on a quality and my shop is the same or slightly more expensive compared to shopping for the same items nearby. So, I wouldn’t say Ocado is the most expensive – at leats for not for my representative basket content. I also like ot get organic eggs and vuggiest at LIDL and shop for fish and meat at Morrisons if not visiting my local butcher (for my husbands meals as I eat very littel meat). As I have M&S in the building where I work I sometimes pop tehre as I do love a few products from that shp and tentiomes I can get some yellow labels produce too.

FAQs

Is there a website like MySupermarket in 2026?

No, not exactly. Nothing currently offers instant full-basket comparison with loyalty pricing built in. Trolley.co.uk and Basketr are the closest options for individual product comparison, and Allsupers is the best free option for a full basket total on standard prices.

What is the cheapest supermarket in the UK right now?

Aldi has generally been cheapest for everyday shops through 2025-2026, with Lidl close behind. For branded goods and larger shops, Tesco with Clubcard and Asda tend to come out ahead.

Do supermarket comparison sites include Clubcard or Nectar prices?

Mostly no. Most free comparison tools show standard shelf prices, not loyalty-card prices, because those discounts are personalised and gated behind an account. Always check the price in-app with your card activated before assuming a comparison tool’s total is final.

Can I compare my exact shopping basket across supermarkets for free?

Allsupers and Basketr both let you build a list and see a basket total across several major supermarkets for free, though neither currently factors in loyalty pricing.

Is a Which? membership worth it just for supermarket comparison?

Only if you’ll use the wider membership too. Which?’s monthly comparison is useful for the big-picture “which supermarket is cheapest” question, but it tracks a fixed list of products rather than your actual shopping list.

As the petrol prices have been rising there are also petrol price comparison sites worth checking 🙂
