Cheapest Brown Bread?

Roxy07

I'm asking because I eat a lot of sandwiches and bread, so wondered where is cheapest to buy in bulk to freeze? :money:

I don't mind value stuff.

I'm thinking it might be Aldi but I don't have an Aldi near me?

Asda smart price? Found it perfectly acceptable.

I take you mean just a bog standard sliced loaf?

I always find plenty of the generic brown bread RTC for 34p at my local Sainsburys. Keep your eyes peeled for YS after 6pm, it freezes just the same.

I'm a firm believer in freezing bread myself.

If you prefer brown bread because it's healthier you need to be looking for wholemeal rather than just brown. I buy a small loaf and Allinson's wholemeal 400g is 2 loaves for 50p in Farmfoods. It's worth checking there for larger loaves too if you have a store near you. Otherwise try Iceland as they often do good value branded bread such as 2 for £1.50 large Kingsmill wholemeal.

Agreed - Cannot remember last time I spent the full asking price for bread.
Lately I have been buying loaves and bags of rolls for 9p from Morrisons ( but every shop is different - even within the same chain )

Aldi and Lidl both do a wholemeal standard size/shape 'soft loaf' for only 45p.

Better than the cheap basic stuff and other supermarkets standard loaf.

Waitrose thinly sliced brown bread is 45p for 800g loaf

Lidl Rowan Hill bread is dire.

You really have not eaten Sainsbury's 45p loaf after 3 or 4 days then.

I agree, Aldi's bread is cheap but really fresh and tasty

Most bread here is binned after 2 days at most,good bread seems to be the hardest thing to find now I really miss the local bakers that everyone had near by but are long gone now.
