Sainsburys Local Stores Matching Many Aldi Prices

I thought this was pretty major consumer news but its not featured on the news section here. Instead we get loads of non-news about Aldi for some reason which just seems like advertising.

Anyway its a first for a convenience store to match Aldi for a lot of pricing making the local convenience store far more competitive. There are a lot of additional costs in running a convenience store so this is not without cost but for those who have a Sainsbury's Local it could be good news. My local convenience store is a Coop but it still saves me money as I can walk there so no petrol cost and they have good short life reductions if you go at the right time plus they have a lot of great special offers however still Sainsbury's Local are providing a wide range of much more competitively priced products.

My nearest is in Dorchester so not that many around here.
