Supermarket veg price war's back

Including sprouts, carrots, parsnips & more

Are you in charge of this year's Christmas dinner? If so, keep calm and carrot on... the 2025 Christmas veg price war is kicking off.

So far, five supermarkets – Morrisons, Tesco, Aldi, Lidl, and Sainsbury's – have confirmed they're slashing prices this week, with Morrisons, Lidl and Aldi as low as 5p a packet. If past years are to go by, once a few supermarkets drop prices, the others will follow suit.

5p is the cheapest we've seen veg pre-Christmas since we started tracking them in 2015.

You don't need to keep your eyes peeled for when the cheap veg will be available, as we've listed when you can bag them below, so get ready to par-snip the price of your festive shop.

Will there be enough stock of cheap Christmas veg? Given the time of year, we can't be certain what stock will be available at supermarkets. It could be worth checking local greengrocers as well.

Will they be reduced even further? It's possible prices could drop even more just before supermarkets close for Christmas if they need to clear stock. Previously, we've seen 1kg of carrots for free after Christmas Day.

For more offers on groceries, see our Supermarket coupons guide.

Ongoing

Via Lidl Plus app, which also includes weekly coupons. Excluding Northern Ireland

Sign up to the Lidl Plus app to get a free doughnut from the bakery section (normally about 30p) on your birthday, with no minimum spend. You'll receive the coupon in your Lidl Plus app on your birthday and will have seven days from then to use it. See full T&Cs.

Ongoing

Slightly past its best, but still edible. In stores nationwide, excluding Northern Ireland

If you head into a Lidl store (find your nearest), you can pick up a 5kg 'Waste Not' box of fruit and vegetables for £2, while stock lasts. The boxes contain 'edible but not perfect' fruit and veg, which are slightly past its best, but still safe to eat. This is currently an ongoing offer with no end date, but we'll update here if that changes.

These are available in stores in England, Scotland, and Wales, and found near the checkout area. They're subject to availability, so if you want one you'll need to be quick as there are only a limited number of boxes available each day. Lidl says any unsold boxes will be donated to local good causes.

What you'll actually get is completely random, as the boxes are made up on the day with whatever fruit and veg is looking past its best in each store. Some could be damaged or discoloured, but you'll be able to see what you're getting before you buy.

A box we spotted in Aug 2023 in a London branch of Lidl

To give you a rough idea of how much of a saving you could make, when we picked up a box to check this deal out, we got:

  • One 250g punnet of raspberries – normally £2.99

  • Two bananas – normally 37p for two (£0.78/kg)

  • Five apples – normally 89p for a five-pack (17p each)

  • 13 satsumas – normally 95p for a 500g bag (£1.90/kg)

  • Two pears – normally 95p for a 550g bag (£1.72/kg)

  • One 500g pack of leeks – normally 69p for a 500g pack (£1.38/kg)

  • Two aubergines – normally 69p each

  • Three lettuce – normally 69p for a two-pack (34p for one)

  • 13 potatoes – normally 91p for a 2.5kg bag (36p/kg)

  • One punnet of black grapes – normally £1.09

Lidl_fruit_veg_box

Based on the price of each individual item in the box, we've calculated that it would cost over £10 to buy it all separately – so buying a box for £2 really does save a bunch.

Throughout the month

When you spend up to £250 in a calendar month

New and existing users of the Lidl Plus app (download via App Store or Google Play) in England, Wales and Scotland will receive a 10% off voucher when spending £250 in a calendar month – up to a maximum of £20. If you spend £100 in a month, Lidl told us you will qualify for a free own-brand item, and then again if you spend £150.

Lidl Plus is also available in Northern Ireland, but tends to have different offers.

As well as money-off coupons, you can claim a free in-store bakery item when you've spent at least £10 in a month. To track the amount spent, scan your virtual Lidl Plus card (within the app) each time you shop. Of course, this shouldn't be an excuse to overspend, but it could be a nice bonus when doing your normal shopping anyway.

Once you've reached the spend target, your coupons should appear automatically in the Coupons section of the app. You can't get change from the coupons, and you'll need to use them within seven days of issue at any Lidl store in the UK (find your nearest).

The qualifying spend excludes infant formula, and coupons can't be used on alcohol or infant formula.

What else you can get from the app – 20% off in-store bakery items and weekly coupons

Check the 'Coupons' section of the Lidl Plus app weekly for extra offers. You can get 20% off all in-store bakery items on Monday to Saturday (excluding bank holidays) from 7pm until closing time.

Every Thursday, you'll be offered a different selection of item-specific coupons valid for one week. When we checked, you could get 20% off cookies and 15% off salted nuts, bacon and stonebaked pizzas.

The Lidl Plus app for Northern Ireland customers

To use the app, select Northern Ireland when signing up. Each week, the app will have 10 coupons for selected products, usually up to 33% off. MoneySaver Glenda K told us she's previously seen 33% off organic honey, 30% off smoked bacon and 25% off ground coffee.

How to use the Lidl Plus app

Scan your virtual card at the till or self-service till each time you shop. Spend coupons by loading them onto your virtual card, then scanning your card before paying. You can use more than one coupon at the same time, but Lidl says there may be a limit of six promotional items per customer.

For more ways to save on the weekly shop, whichever supermarket you frequent, see our supermarket coupons.

Lidl Black Friday deals on electricals & homeware

Cheapest for many items including Vax and Ninja

Supermarket chain Lidl has Black Friday deals on selected items, mostly electricals and homeware, including brands such as Ninja, Daewoo, Silentnight and Emma mattresses.

The offers are in-store only (find your nearest) and there's no end to this sale, it's while stock lasts – deals began on Sunday 23 November. Last year, we noticed Lidl had removed the Black Friday banner from its website on Black Friday itself, suggesting a lot of stock had gone. With this in mind, it's best to go quick if you want something.

Below are some examples, but there isn't always an indication of what the prices were beforehand (Lidl only mentions Recommended Retail Price).

Important: Don’t allow yourself to be taken in by the hype around Black Friday and be sucked into buying something you don’t need or can’t afford. Always do your own price comparisons to ensure you are getting the best deal possible.

See our Black Friday 2025 guide for all our Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals analysis.

Lidl Black Friday prediction

Deals on electricals & homeware

🗓️ Predicted from Sunday 23 November, while stocks last

In 2024, Lidl's sale focused on electricals and homeware, featuring brands such as Silentnight, Salter, and Daewoo. Although there was no indication of what the prices were beforehand (Lidl only mentions Recommended Retail Price, or RRP), we did find Lidl was cheapest in all our checks. For example, it had a £60 Daewoo air fryer that was £70 elsewhere.

Free protection for all shopping!

There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
