The Easter Bank holiday weekend is not too far away now, and major supermarket chains have started to announce huge discounts on traditional Sunday roast vegetables
Major supermarket chains are slashing the price of Easter Sunday essentials to just 15p to draw in shoppers ahead of the Bank holiday weekend.
Over Easter – similarly to Christmas – it is tradition in the UK to sit down for a Sunday Roast and every year supermarkets cut the cost of traditional roast dinner veg. The first to announce the price cut was Lidl, which will be cutting vegetable prices from April 15 as part of its “Pick of the Week” deals. The offer includes carrots, white Potatoes, green beans, swede, parsnips, and spring onions. Shortly after Lidl’s announcement, Aldi also joined in, offering its “Super Six” veggies for between 34% and 89% off.
Aldi’s deal runs from April 15 and covers white potatoes, carrots, broccoli, spring onions, and loose garlic. It also covers cucumber however, this is not priced at 15p but at 89p instead.
Sainsbury’s is now the latest contender in this bargain price battle, confirming it will be offering Easter dinner essentials for 15p from April 16 as well as 50% off selected Easter mains available now.
Shoppers can pick up the deal from April 16 right up until April 20 and just like Lidl’s offer, Sainsbury’s price cuts cover white potatoes, parsnips, swedes and carrots. However, there is one catch with Sinasbury’s. To get the discounts you will need to be a Nectar Card member. If you are not a Nectar Card member, you can register for free by downloading the Nectar App on your smartphone.

It’s important to note that you do not need to be part of a loyalty scheme to get discounts at both Aldi and Lidl.
Like with all offers, they will only be available while stocks last so you may want to get down earlier rather than later to make sure you bag the bargains. Its also worth noting that as we approach the Easter Bank Holiday weekend, other major supermarket chains will likely announce deals similar to these. Supermarkets which have yet to announce Easter deals include Asda, Morrisons, and Tesco.
