AS CHRISTMAS approaches British households are looking for ways to start spreading the cost.

The cost of living crisis has hit everyone financially over the past couple of years and has forced a lot of people into giving up luxuries, especially at Christmas.

This year, however, Asda customers can stock up on frozen Christmas dinner essentials in advance, packing the freezer to feed a family of six for just £4.17 per head.

Available to purchase in-store and online, the same products would have cost a total of £27.29 last Christmas in 2022, meaning this year, Asda customers can pick up a Christmas dinner for even cheaper, saving £2.29.

Plus, customers don’t have to buy all of the products to get the best value, as every product has reduced in price since Christmas 2022.

  • Asda Frozen Medium British Turkey Crown (2.2kg) – now £16, was £16.50 in 2022  
  • Asda Frozen Maple Pigs in Blankets (232g) – now £2.25, was £2.50 in 2022

Asda said: "This announcement follows Asda’s latest round of price cuts on 232 branded and own-label products, as part of its continued support for families impacted by the cost-of-living crisis.

"Insight from Asda’s latest income tracker also reveals that despite improvements in inflation figures, disposable income continues to fall for 60% of UK households, compared to the same time last year – with the lowest earning households having a deficit of £72 in disposable income per week.

"According to research commissioned by the British Frozen Food Federation (BFFF), 38% of people are buying more frozen food than last year, further showing the impact that these levels of inflation are having on consumer spending behaviour.
