Viktor Bohdan

Went to Asda in Spondon, Derby. Exchanged 200 pound for euros. No questions asked, nothing explained. When i got home I found out that the lady charge me for exchange fees. How can you charge someone without explanation? Will never use their service [...]

Read the full review

They are garbage , the app is abhorrent, I tried to check my balance , everything I entered my unique one time number it was rejected.

Appalling customer service. Cost more in fees and time. Had to use an alternative card which fortunately I had taken abroad with me. Will not use again

The euro rate at Asda Money right now is 1.1557. You'll need to buy or reserve your euros online to guarantee this rate; the euro rate offered in your local store may be lower if you don't order online beforehand.

Asda's exchange rates are typically average in terms of competitiveness, and their currency deals are comparable to Tesco and the Post Office .

I ordered money online, got a date to collect it but I can’t make it to that date. Can I collect it the next day?

Avatar

Thank you for your comment.

Yes, you can collect it the next day. Please note that as soon as the store receives your order, they will send you a text message or email to tell you that it’s available for collection. Your order will be held in store for 10 days, after this time it will be returned to their depot and you will be refunded.

Should you wish to have real-time answers to your questions, try our chat box on the lower right corner of our page.

When buying foreign currency from Asda, are there any commission charges? My credit card receipt showed a figure but my credit card statement showed a higher figure. I bought US and Canadian dollars.

Hello Royston,

Upon checking, Asda money will buy back most foreign currency notes you have at 0% commission, whether you bought the currency from them or not. In addition, you will not be charged a card processing fee by Asda if you choose to pay by debit or credit card. However, your card issuer may apply additional charges and they recommend that you check this with your card provider before you buy currencies.

How long have you got to collect an order

Thanks for reaching out to finder.

If you fail to collect your order from ASDA nominated locations within 4 working days of the collection time then your order will be marked as non-collected. Your order will then be cancelled and will be automatically refunded onto the payment card at the daily buy back rate minus an administration charge of £15.

I hope this helps.

Cheers, Charisse

Asda Travel Money: Rates and Stores

Travel money

As one of the UK’s largest supermarket chains, Asda offers everything you need for your regular weekly shop. Thanks to a partnership with travel money provider Travelex, you can also pick up your foreign currency at the same time you’re collecting your groceries.

No matter where in the world you’re headed, you’ll want to do some research on different travel money providers to find the one which offers you the best possible value. This guide covers all you need to know about Asda travel money - and also introduces an alternative, Wise , as a comparison.

With the Wise account (formerly TransferWise) you can buy foreign currency at the mid-market exchange rate with no markup, and spend easily when abroad, using your linked Wise Mastercard debit card . More on that coming up.

Asda travel money services

Asda provides customers with a range of travel money services , including:

  • In person foreign currency purchase at Asda travel money stores
  • Click and collect service to order currency online and pick up at a store
  • Home delivery of travel money
  • Asda travel money prepaid currency card

However, it is important to note that some services are disrupted due to restrictions in place to combat the global pandemic. This may include store closures, and delays to home delivery services for travel money. Restrictions change over time, so you’ll need to check out the latest details online before you decide how to arrange your travel money.

Asda travel money stores

There are specific travel money bureaux in some Asda stores around the country, offerings walk in currency exchange, click and collect travel money, and phone ordering of foreign currency . Over 50 different currencies are available, although for some currencies - or for large amounts - you’ll find you need to order in advance. You’ll be able to find the nearest Asda travel money service to you, using the Asda store locator tool .

At the time of writing all exchange bureaux have been closed due to the global pandemic response. Check out the latest details online before you head out to buy your travel money.

Home delivery

Another option to get your travel money is to buy online and have the cash delivered to you at home.

You’ll be able to place an order with a minimum value of £250, through to a maximum of £2,500. Home delivery is free for orders of £500 or more, with a £3.95 fee for delivery of smaller amounts of travel money. Home delivery is by Royal Mail, and will usually arrive the next working day if you order before 1:30pm. However, at the time of writing, this service is being disrupted due to the pandemic, and there may be delivery delays. Asda advise customers to leave adequate time before travelling to receive their travel money safely.

It’s useful to know that you’ll need to be home to accept delivery of your travel money, for security reasons. You’ll also want to check out the exchange rate used for your order, as a markup or margin may be added which can push up costs. More on that later.

Asda money travel insurance

If you’re looking for insurance to cover your trip abroad, you can also get that through Asda money . Asda partners with InsureandGo to provide a full range of insurance types, including single trip, multi-trip and winter sports cover.

Asda travel money rates

No matter where you are buying your travel money from, you’ll need to know the exchange rate that’s being used to switch your pounds to euros, dollars, zloty or any other currency. Exchange rates change all the time, but you can easily find the live mid-market exchange rate for your currency using a simple Google search or a reputable online currency converter.

It’s useful to know that many travel money services add a markup or margin to the exchange rate they offer customers, instead of passing on the mid-market exchange rate. Markups are extremely common where providers claim to offer commission free currency exchange. Instead of a transparent exchange fee or commission charge, a markup on the exchange rate is used to protect the provider’s profits. This is an extra fee, and makes it hard to see the true cost of your currency conversion.

Compare the rate you’re given by Asda travel money against the mid-market exchange rate. If there’s a difference that’s probably because a markup has been added. If this is the case, you may be better off with an alternative like Wise.

An alternative: The Wise account

Not all currency services add a markup to the mid-market exchange rate. Instead, Wise passes the mid-market exchange rate on to customers, and uses a low transparent fee for conversion, so you can see exactly what you’re paying for your travel money, every time.

To make travel money easy, consider getting a free online Wise account . You’ll be able to top up your account in pounds and switch to any of dozens of different currencies within the account, using the mid-market exchange rate. You can then spend or withdraw your foreign currency using your linked Wise Mastercard debit card. Simple.

You’ll only ever pay a small charge for currency conversion, and ATM withdrawals are free up to the value of £200 a month. All in all, that can work out up to 7x cheaper than using a bank or a competitor service.

Asda buy back service

If you come back from your trip with unused travel money you may be able to sell it back to Asda travel money through the buy back service.

Typically only foreign currency notes can be returned - and the exchange rate which will be used will be different to the rate that was applied when you switched your money in the first place. That’s because currency services often use different exchange rates when buying and selling foreign currency. Make sure you understand the rate which will be used before you proceed, to avoid any surprises.

Switching your currency back after your trip will usually mean you pay more in fees and exchange rate markups. Instead, use a service like the Wise account to manage your money more flexibly and top up and exchange currency as you go. That way you’ll be able to convert only what you need, when you need it.

Doing some research into the different options available is the best way to get a good deal on your travel money. Compare the fees and rates available from Asda travel money with a specialist provider like Wise , and you might find you can save .

How to compare currency buyback exchange rates

Enter your currency and amount.

Tell us how much travel money you have to sell and which currency you need to exchange .

Compare your options

Use our comparison tables to compare different firms and check their fees and charges to find the best currency buy back deal.

Choose delivery mode

If you send the money by post, you may have to pay for recorded delivery, so take the extra cost into account when making your choice.

Getting the best high street currency buy back rates

If you have euros, dollars or other currencies left over from a trip abroad, you can sell them to a currency buy-back service that will convert them into pounds. 

When you sell foreign currency, you get a buy-back rate from your chosen provider, which tells you how many pounds you can get for your unwanted travel money. 

For example, if the best euro buy-back rate available is 0.85, you will get 85p for every euro you sell.

But to find the right deal, you need to look beyond the best currency buy back rates.

Delivery costs, fees, and commissions also affect how much you receive, so work out what you'll get back in pounds after any expenses when you sell travel money.

Currency buy-back FAQs

Where can you find the best travel money buy-back rate.

You can look for the best currency buy-back rates on the high street, but you could miss out if you ignore what’s available online. Use this comparison to check currency buy back rates including the best euro buy back rate from our selection of online providers. 

Rates may differ due to the fluctuating nature of currency exchange, so for the latest rate, please check with the provider.

What does it cost to sell currency online?

The costs you incur when you sell travel money can vary widely. So, you need to factor in:

The exchange rate:  choosing the highest foreign currency buy back rate available should help to ensure you get the best possible deal

Any delivery costs:  you will usually have to pay to send your cash to the buy-back provider

Some providers do not guarantee currency buy-back rates before you send your money to them, which could affect the amount you get back.

You can use any of the providers in this comparison to sell euros or other foreign currencies and exchange them back into pounds.

Here is more information on dealing with leftover currency

Can I sell any foreign currency?

No. You can sell euros, dollars, and other common currencies, but buy back services are not available for all currencies. Check with providers to make sure you can exchange your money, then compare rates and charges to find the best deal.

Can I swap my foreign currency into another?

Yes, if the travel money provider you choose allows it, you can exchange one currency for another; you could, for example, switch euros to US dollars.

Am I guaranteed to get the rate I see online?

Not always. Check the terms and conditions when comparing rates online – some currency buy back providers only agree a rate once they receive your money, which could make a big difference to how much you receive.

Can I send coins to be exchanged?

No, only notes are accepted, and some providers only take specific denominations, so it’s also worth checking this when choosing where to exchange any unused currency.

Can I exchange multiple currencies at once?

Yes. Provided the currency exchange you've chosen accepts all of them, you can swap more than one currency at a time. 

How long do I have until my foreign currency goes out of date?

This depends on the currency. 

US dollars never go out of date, while other countries periodically 'expire' older bank notes.

In many cases, they will still be accepted anyway. For example, new  euro notes  were introduced between 2013 and 2019, but the old versions have retained their value and can be exchanged. 

Turkish lira  from before 2005, however, is no longer accepted by businesses including foreign currency buy back services.

In recent months the world has shown more signs that it is returning to normal. Restaurants and fine dining establishments are buzzing, stadiums for sporting events are back to full capacity, tickets to music festivals are selling out like hot cakes and perhaps the most clear indication that normal service has resumed, Londoners have caught the travelling bug again.

However, those who travel will tell you that being abroad is probably the only fun part of the travelling experience. Securing a flight ticket that is good value for money is difficult enough, but an even tougher task is finding the bets place to exchange your money before flying out. Thankfully, Compare The Market have a helpful online tool to find out which is the best place to exchange your pound sterling for euros.

MyLondon took a look at four of the most popular currency exchange providers on the high street (The Post Office, Thomas Cook Payment, Asda and Tesco) and found out how many euros you would get if you exchanged £750.

The Post Office

The Post Office is one of the most popular places for travellers to get their money exchanged.

In fourth place, is the tried and trusted Post Office. If you are looking to exchange £750 today you will receive €852.90. The Post Office offer relatively competitive rates, 0% commission, and next-day delivery on holiday money exchange.

Thomas Cook Payments

Thomas Cook airline collapsed in 2019

In third place is Thomas Cook Payments. Whilst Thomas Cook has had a very rocky last few years, their currency exchange service is still a reliable option for securing euros. If you are looking to exchange £750 today you will receive €854.40. The well-established brand in the travel industry Thomas Cook Travel Money offers a wide range of currencies but are less competitive on price than many other providers.

Asda is one of the UK's most popular supermarkets

Asda comes in a respectable second place out of the popular high street locations that you can get your money exchange. If you are looking to exchange £750 today you will receive €857.62. Asda Travel Money is a currency provider offered by the U.K. supermarket chain. The travel money service does not live up to the low-cost reputation of the Asda brand as they are less competitive on price than many other providers.

Tesco is one of the best places to exchange money

Top of the list is none other than the UK's largest supermarket chain, Tesco . If you are looking to exchange £750 today you will receive €859.80. Tesco Travel Money Bureau has a range of foreign currencies, including Euros and US Dollars, instantly available for purchase online.

Aldi has undercut Tesco on some of its rival's claimed price matches, according to The Grocer . 

As a result of Aldi dropping its prices, Tesco has pulled certain products from its campaign, according to the digital magazine, and in some cases it is rendering the supermarket's price match claims incorrect.

According to The Grocer, two variants of Aldi's Lunex Ultra sanitary towels (Night and Long) were "price matched" at 45p by Tesco this week, while Aldi had reduced them to 42p in its weekly permanent price drops.

In a similar vein, the magazine said Aldi's Bon Appetit Pains Au Chocolat eight-pack was price matched by Tesco at £1.35 on 6 June - before being cut to £1.29 at Aldi.

Tesco's equivalent had disappeared from Tesco's campaign by 13 June. 

"Our customers know that only one supermarket offers Aldi prices on every product and that's Aldi," an Aldi spokesman told The Grocer. 

"Other supermarkets just can't match us on that." 

Tesco said prices were checked twice-weekly and the most recent check on the Lunex sanitary towels found them to be 45p in more than half of Aldi stores surveyed. 

A spokesman told The Grocer products included may vary by week, with some removed and others added. 

An English rosé has been celebrated as one of the 50 best wines in the world.

Chapel Down's Rosé Brut won one of the 50 best in show medals at the Decanter World Wine Awards - the first time a UK sparkling rosé has done so. 

The rosé, made in Kent, is a blend of chardonnay, pinot noir, pinot meunier, pinot blanc and early pinot noir. 

Josh Donaghay-Spire, head winemaker at Chapel Down, said: "We are over the moon. 

"It is recognition of the attention to detail and quality that we put into every bottle." 

He put the success down to the cooler maritime climate and chalk soils of Kent, which offered the wine the "freshness and crisp character that can't be made anywhere else". 

You can get a bottle for around £37.

More than 30% of UK shoppers have seen a theft take place in a shop in the past year, data from Retail Insight suggests.

A poll of more than 1,000 consumers also found the average shopper had witnessed four instances of theft in stores in London.

According to the Association of Convenience Stores, there was a 409% increase in shoplifting last year, to 5.6 million incidents.

"There's little doubt that shoplifting poses a challenging and costly issue for retailers, many of whom are already giving away margin to keep the cost of everyday foods as low as possible for customers amidst cost of living pressures," Paul Boyle, chief executive of Retail Insight, said.

A ballot is under way that could see Amazon recognise a trade union in the UK for the first time.

Workers will eventually vote on whether they want the union, GMB, to represent them.

GMB needs 40% of them to vote in its favour for Amazon to recognise it.

If the union succeeds, it would mean Amazon would negotiate with GMB leadership over on terms, pay and conditions for workers. 

Ballot papers will be sent out on 3 July, with workplace voting starting on 8 July, lasting for six days.

The result of the ballot is expected on 15 July.

Almost one in five workers have had no change in their pay since the start of the cost of living crisis, new research claims. 

Jobs site Indeed said its survey of 2,000 people also found that two in five revealed they were struggling to make ends meet.

One in five said their salary had not changed since 2021, while almost one in seven said their pay had fallen since then.

Jack Kennedy, senior economist at Indeed, said: "After grappling with the cost of living crisis for over two years, it's no surprise that wages are front of mind for voters.

"There's a clear call from the British people for the elected government to further ease financial pressures, and we'd expect this to remain front of mind for the public long after the winning party is decided."

By Daniel Binns, business reporter

Taylor Swift's shows in London will boost the economy by £300m, officials have claimed.

The US star will perform three gigs at London's Wembley Stadium this Friday, Saturday and Sunday - before returning to the venue in August for a further five dates.

The sold-out shows will be attended by a total of nearly 640,000 people.

The Greater London Authority estimates fans will spend an average of £471 a show, with many travelling from around the world or other parts of the country to watch.

The capital's mayor Sadiq Khan said he was "delighted" the 34-year-old was playing more shows in the city than anywhere else in the world during her Eras Tour.

The Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee was never going to cut interest rates today. Not two weeks before a general election.

Cutting the cost of borrowing would have been perceived as highly political, potentially offering support to the government, even though some Conservative politicians, such as the former business secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg, sought to argue ahead of today's decision that not cutting Bank rate could equally be perceived as "a political decision against the government".

So it was no surprise to see the MPC maintain Bank rate at 5.25% or, indeed, for the composition of the vote, at 7-2, to remain unchanged from last time around, with uber-dove Swati Dhingra and Sir Dave Ramsden, again, outnumbered in voting for Bank rate to be cut to 5%.

The MPC also went out of its way to show how it is finely attuned to criticisms of bias one way or the other.

The minutes note: "The committee noted that the timing of the general election on 4 July was not relevant to its decision at this meeting, which would as usual be made on the basis of what was judged necessary to achieve the 2% inflation target sustainably in the medium term."

Why did the MPC vote to hold?

Leaving aside the politics, there were very good reasons why most of the MPC voted for no change today.

Chief among these was the fact that, although the headline rate of Consumer Prices Inflation in May returned to the Bank's target rate of 2% for the first time since July 2021, services inflation remains uncomfortably high at 5.7%. 

That will have raised alarm bells on the MPC about the risk of so-called "second round effects", whereby firms and workers respond to higher prices by themselves seeking to raise their prices or their wages and not least because services make up four-fifths of the UK economy.

The MPC minutes noted today that services inflation was "somewhat higher than projected" when the Bank published its most recent inflation report only last month.

The minutes added: "This strength in part reflected prices that are index-linked or regulated, which are typically changed only annually, and volatile components."

Inflation likely to rise again

The MPC is also very wary of the possibility that inflation is likely to begin creeping higher again later in the year. 

That is due to so-called "base effects" - the year-on-year comparison - and the fact that, in the second half of last year, the price of some goods in the inflation basket were falling or, at least, not rising as rapidly as they are expected to in the second half of last year. 

A good example of that, which stood out in the inflation figures published on Wednesday, is unleaded petrol - a litre of which cost 144.4p in May last year but which cost 148.8p in May this year.

More broadly, the economy is growing more strongly than the Bank has been expecting, as are several indicators of economic activity, among them spending by households on repair and maintenance of their homes and consumer confidence.

Wage inflation

The other major concern for the MPC is that wage inflation, at 5.9% during the three months to the end of April, remains too high for its liking.

The latest report from the Bank's network of regional agents - whose briefings are closely studied by the MPC's members - suggest that recruitment difficulties are "near to their pre-COVID levels" which represents "a historically high level".

Other survey data has also persuaded the MPC to conclude the labour market remains "a little tighter than official data" suggests.

The minutes highlight concerns that near-term pay growth may moderate by less than the Bank was expecting in its May report.

Consumer-facing businesses, which are most exposed to the National Living Wage, in particular are having to pay more to employees.

That said, a reduction in Bank rate is coming, with the MPC noting: "The restrictive stance of monetary policy is weighing on activity in the real economy, is leading to a looser labour market and is bearing down on inflationary pressures. 

"Key indicators of inflation persistence have continued to moderate, although they remain elevated."

When will interest rates be cut? 

The timing of that reduction is now going to be more fiercely debated than ever. Yesterday's inflation data, with that unexpectedly strong reading for services inflation, pushed market expectations for the timing of that first cut out from August to September.

Today's minutes, though, have persuaded some market participants to conclude that an August reduction in Bank rate may be back on.

The key line in the minutes that have raised that prospect was that, among some MPC members who voted for no change this month, "the policy decision at this meeting was finely balanced".

So the big takeaway from today's meeting is that the door remains open to an August reduction in Bank rate. 

The market was putting the probability of an August rate cut at 30% before the meeting. It is now placing a 60% probability on that.

But an August rate cut is not nailed on - and politics may yet rear its head - and the MPC will be watching closely to how markets react to the election result.

As Julian Howard, chief multi-asset investment strategist at GAM Investments, put it: "A potential Labour landslide could unsettle markets, in particular the currency.

"Sir Keir Starmer has come under pressure in recent days on the issue of tax and spending. Sterling will appreciate neither unfunded spending, nor a heavier tax burden."

Some more reaction to bring you now, with experts at Capital Economics suggesting the "pieces of the puzzle are almost in place" for a rate cut. 

It said "several developments implied a rate cut is getting closer", citing the two members who voted to cut rates by 25 percentage points to 5.00% and, interestingly, a lack of "hawkish" rhetoric in the minutes released alongside the decision.

"Despite the recent run of stronger inflation and activity data, the language in today's minutes was not much more hawkish than in May," Capital said.

"The minutes continued to suggest 'indicators of inflation persistence had continued to moderate' and that a range of indicators suggest pay growth had continued to ease.

"As a result, we still think there is a good chance of a rate cut in August and that rates will fall to 3.00% in 2025, rather than to 4.00% as investors expect."

We've been reading over the minutes from today's Monetary Policy Committee meeting - and here's what the governor had to say on the decision...

"It's good news that inflation has returned to our 2% target," Andrew Bailey said, referring to the data released yesterday.

"We need to be sure that inflation will stay low and that's why we've decided to hold rates at 5.25% for now."

Some reaction to bring you now to the Bank of England's decision to hold the interest rate at 5.25%.

Jonathan Bone, lead mortgage adviser at  Better.co.uk , criticises the decision: "Borrowers have waited three long years for inflation to return to the 2% target. 

"Now that it's finally happened, the excitement has dampened as underlying price pressures in the economy have not slowed as quickly as expected, and the ongoing election likely hasn't helped either. 

He says the Bank of England is "obstinate" and "unwilling to take action despite widespread criticism", adding: "Those with mortgages are desperate for relief."

Meanwhile, Tobias Gruber, chief executive  of  My Community Finance , says the decision means savers have more time to review their options.

He offers some advice to those looking around for savings options: "There are still excellent opportunities available for fixed-rate savings, with some providers offering interest rates of over 5%. 

"If you don't need immediate access to your money, locking in a competitive fixed rate now can protect you from future base rate cuts." 

The Bank of England's nine-person Monetary Policy Committee again voted 7-2 in favour of holding interest rates at 5.25%. 

That's the same split as when the committee last met. 

Reacting to the news, our economics and data editor Ed Conway says: "Everyone now is in a kind of holding pattern until August, when the next meeting takes place.

"That is the moment where people think there could be a cut.

"We're going to potentially be waiting until August and maybe even [as far away as] November -  it really depends on what happens with the data."

As expected, the Bank of England has held interest rates at 5.25% for the seventh time in a row.

The Monetary Policy Committee's vote in favour of maintaining the 16-year high in rates had been widely expected by economists and financial markets.

What does the decision mean?

This will come as a blow to borrowers, who will continue to pay a high rate on any loans they take out - like mortgages.

It's not bad news for all, however, as higher interest rates increase the return on savings.

Mark Hicks, head of Active Savings at investment platform Hargreaves Lansdown, said: "Right now, you can still earn more than 5% on everything from easy access accounts to those fixed for up to two years.

"Unfortunately, most people won't be making anything like this, because high street easy access branch rates are far less generous, and in most cases, they pay less than inflation (currently 2%). 

"At times like this it's key to check out the rates from online banks and savings platforms, which tend to pay more than the high street giants."

The average first-time buyer needs a household income of more than £60,000 to get on to the property ladder, according to Zoopla. 

It estimated that the typical first-time buyer needs £14,900 more than five years ago and £2,400 more than a year ago - a total of £60,600.

The analysis was based on average asking prices of first-time buyer homes for sale on Zoopla of around £250,000.

Those earning figures are based on having a 20% deposit to hand - it would likely need to be much higher if a first-time buyer did not have so much cash to put down up front. 

Startlingly, in London, Zoopla found first-time buyers would need a household income of at least £103,000.

In Wales, they would need £38,800 and in Scotland £31,500, according to the calculations.

Izabella Lubowiecka, senior property researcher at Zoopla, said: "The challenges facing first-time buyers are not the same across the UK.

"Access to homeownership requires lower incomes in much of Wales, northern England and Scotland. 

"The greatest challenges are in southern England, especially London where first-time buyers are already buying cheaper homes than the average in an effort to try and improve affordability."

Echoing the praise from January, customers described it as ‘the best £35 [they’ve] spent on [their] house so far,’ ‘so beautiful,’ and ‘Whaaaaaat! That price is incredible.’

Supermarkets hope for Euro 2024 boost as Asda and Co-op lose ground

Asda and the Co-op are the only major supermarket brands in the UK to have lost market share over recent weeks, according to new figures.

According to the latest data from Kantar, Asda’s market share dropped by four per cent in the 12 weeks to June 9, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, as its sales went from £4.5bn to £4.3bn.

The Co-op’s share also decreased by 2.3 per cent over the same period with its sales falling from £1.9bn to £1.8bn.

By contrast, Ocado’s market share jumped by 10.7 per cent, with its sales going from £549m to £608m, while Lidl’s also rose by 8.1 per cent as its sales increased from £2.5bn to £2.7bn.

Wet spring dampens supermarket sales

Katar’s data also shows that take-home grocery sales rose by just one per cent over the four weeks to June 9, 2024, marking the slowest increase since June 2022 as poor weather and falling inflation impacted the sector.

The growth in footfall has also stalled, according to the figures, with the average shopper visiting a supermarket 16.3 times this month – down from 16.4 in June last year.

Fraser McKevitt, head of retail and consumer insight at Kantar, said: “The sixth wettest spring on record hasn’t just dampened our spirits leading into summer, it’s made a mark on the grocery sector too as it seems Britons are being put off from popping to the shops. 

“We’re not yet reaching for those typical summertime products and are making some purchases you wouldn’t expect in June.

“Consumers bought nearly 25 per cent fewer suncare items this month compared with last year, while prepared salads dipped by 11 per cent.  On the other hand, warming fresh soup sales jumped by almost 24 per cent.”

‘Cost-of-living crisis is far from over’

McKevitt added: “The cost-of-living crisis isn’t over – far from it.  22 per cent of households say they’re struggling, meaning that they aren’t able to cover their expenses or are just making ends meet. 

“However, there are positive signs that many of us no longer feel the need to restrict our spending quite so much, with lower inflation helping to ease the pressure on people’s pockets.

“In May, we recorded the largest jump in the number of comfortable households since January 2023, rising by two percentage points on February 2024’s figure.

“Costs are falling in nearly one third of the grocery categories we track, including toilet tissues, butter and milk.  That’s a big increase from last year, when just one per cent of markets were declining.”

Supermarkets hoping for a Euro 2024 boost

Kantar added that supermarkets will be waiting to see if positive performances by England and Scotland can deliver a win at the tills, too.

McKevitt said: “The grocers are looking to entice in consumers enjoying this year’s tournament, with the proportion of beer and lager sales on promotion leaping up to over 40% in the latest four weeks.

“Retailers will be competing with fans heading out of the house to watch the football as well as with each other.

“Pubs especially could benefit from a boost – whether or not football comes home. 

“Throughout the last tournament held in 2021, sales of food and non-alcoholic drinks in pubs soared by 60 per cent compared with the average month that year.”

How did Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose, Iceland and Aldi perform?

Aldi, the fourth largest retailer by consumer spend, boosted sales by 0.8 per cent and now has a share of 10 per cent.

Tesco achieved its highest market share since February 2022, growing 0.6 percentage points to 27.7 per cent and pushing up sales by 4.6 per cent.

Sainsbury’s saw its sales rise by 4.9 per cent to account for 15.2 per cent of the market, up from 14.9 per cent last year. 

Morrisons’ sales rose by 1.1 cent and its share now stands at 8.7 per cent.

Iceland boosted sales by 4.4 per cent and holds 2.4 per cent of the market, up from 2.3 per cent a year ago.

This marks the first annual market share increase for the frozen-food specialist since March last year. 

Waitrose welcomed 188,000 new shoppers through its doors over the latest 12 weeks, a greater increase than any other grocer. 

With its sales growing by 3.5 per cent, the retailer has a 4.5 per cent share.
