Lidl poised to overtake struggling Morrisons as UK's fifth largest supermarket
Lidl looks set to overtake Morrisons as the UK's fifth- largest supermarket after its market share hit a record high this summer. More than half a million new customers flocked to the discount retailer's 960 stores amid concerns over higher grocery bills. Lidl is now hot on the heels of Morrisons after its slice of the market hit 8.3 per cent over the three months to July 13, according to industry research group Worldpanel. Lidl sales over the period were 11.1 per cent higher than a year earlier when its share of the market was 7.8 per cent. The surge saw it further narrow the gap with rival Morrisons, whose market share has fallen from 8.7 per cent to 8.4 per cent in the past year, the report showed. Morrisons has already lost its position as the fourth-biggest grocer in Britain to Aldi. Nearly two thirds of households told Worldpanel they are very concerned about the cost of their grocery shopping. Price increases on key goods including cocoa and beef have ramped up pressure on supermarket chains locked in a bitter battle to retain shoppers. Morrisons' slip comes as boss Rami Baitieh attempts to engineer a recovery at the private-equity owned group. Last month, he said it had 'bounced back' after its technology supplier Blue Yonder was hit by hackers in November, throwing its stock systems into disarray. Morrisons has lost sales and market share to cheaper rivals since its takeover by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) in a debt-fuelled £7billion deal in October 2021. After Labour piled on costs for retailers at the Budget last year, Morrisons cut more than 350 jobs across its cafes, convenience stores, florists and fresh food counters, in March. The figures also underscored the woes facing Britain's third-largest grocer, Asda. The firm, also owned by private equity, saw sales plunge 3 per cent from £4.4billion to £4.25billion over the past three months, while its market share fell to 11.8 per cent. The dire performance came after executive chairman Allan Leighton insisted the 'green shoots' of recovery are appearing as it slashes the price of thousands of products and improves stock levels. A spokesman for Lidl said the record market share was 'a clear signal that shoppers are voting with their feet. 'This milestone reflects our long-standing position as the fastest-growing bricks-and-mortar supermarket in the UK, as well as our commitment to offering high quality, affordable produce – which is why we've attracted more than half a million new customers.' Meanwhile, Tesco improved its share to 28.3 per cent as sales grew by 7.1 per cent, the fastest rate since December 2023. And Britain's number two supermarket Sainsbury's saw sales climb by 5.3 per cent, putting its market share at 15.1 per cent. Tesco boss Ken Murphy has warned that Tesco was ready to take a £400million hit to profits this year as the competition hots up.

B&M shoppers rush to buy trendy furniture set scanning at just £40 instead of £110 giving your living room a spruce
B&M shoppers are rushing to buy a trendy furniture set scanning for just £40 down from £110 ideal for giving your living room a spruce. The discounter is shifting the cut-price Chicago table, which comes with two benches, at a 63% discount. 1 One eagle-eyed customer spotted the bargain in their local B&M branch, posting a picture of it on the B&M Scanner and Other Bargains Facebook page. The post has notched up hundreds of likes and comments from shoppers amazed at the deal. One simply said: "Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!" Meanwhile, a third added: "I would love this." Shoppers who want to buy the table themselves will have to head to their nearest B&M to see if there are any in stock as the retailer doesn't offer a home delivery service. Just bear in mind you might not find it at the same discounted price. The shopper who posted the table on the B&M Scanner and Other Bargains Facebook page said they found it at a branch in Redruth, Cornwall, although it is not clear if there are any left at that price at that shop. The table isn't listed on the B&M website either, but the post suggests the table is 1.1metre wide, 0.7m deep and 0.75m tall. The table can carry a maximum load of 100kg while the benches can support up to 200kg - enough to fit the whole family. Top products to always buy at B&M How to bag a bargain at B&M B&M, founded in 1978, is already known for selling items at bargain prices - so much so the retailer is expanding across the UK. The discounter is opening 45 stores across the UK this year.

It can take time, but it sometimes shows up a price that's different to the one being advertised on the label. Shoppers have used the app previously to find products scanning for just 10p. The app also gives you a product description. Meanwhile, B&M super shopper Sam Penney recently revealed her six top tips for bagging a bargain at the discount chain. The mum-of-two advised customers to look out for red and white stickers on products. These are not used by B&M often, but are worth keeping an eye out for as they are placed on products which have been reduced in price. Sam, who founded the B&M Scanner and Other Bargains Facebook page, also said shoppers will get the best bargains on Wednesday mornings. This is when products are slashed in price by staff. The bargain hunter also said it's worth speaking to B&M workers who can scan items and let you know if something is cheaper than its advertised price label. In other B&M news, shoppers have been rushing to buy home furniture scanning for £15 down from £35. Plus, customers also recently found Croc dupes on sale for just 10p instead of £5 - a whopping 98% discount.

But Mondelēz International (Cadbury owners) previously revealed it is not always the company's decision as to when festive treats are released in supermarkets. It explained that retailers are free to choose when products appear on shelves, and "due to supply chain reasons, some products will be on shelves a little earlier" than the rest.
