The supermarket chain is slashing prices across dozens of products
GETTY
Tesco has announced it is slashing the price of more than 150 of its most popular everyday items.
The supermarket is cutting the cost of many products by an average of 12.5 per cent which may well help families with their weekly shop.
This latest wave of price reductions come following the news Tesco is offering Clubcard customers double points until February 25.
Instead of customers earning one Clubcard point for every £1 they spend, they will instead receive two points which can go towards reducing the cost of their shopping basket or to rewards.
