Lidl advertising potatoes / carrots / shallots / swede / green beans & spring onions at 19p from 26 March.  No doubt all will be doing similar.

    Broccoli 15p at ASDA.
  • Got carrots, all rounder potatoes & a swede for 15p each from tesco today. I might go back tomorrow to stock up on the swede & freeze it because it’s a favourite veg in my house.

    It's not a discount, it's "new lower prices" - i.e. the price has been changed and will remain lower for at least 3 months.
