Tesco has increased the price of its ready meal deals, causing frustration among customers. The supermarket chain raised the cost of its Finest ready meals and its cheaper ready-made dinners, citing improved ingredients and new menu options. Customers have expressed their disappointment on social media platforms.

TESCO has increased the price of its ready meal deal, causing frustration among customers who rely on quick dinners. The supermarket previously offered two Finest ready meals for £7.50, but this has risen to £8 with a Clubcard in recent months. Additionally, its cheaper ready-made dinners, including Macaroni Cheese, Chicken & Bacon Pasta Bake, and Bangers & Mash, have gone from three for £7.50 to three for £8. The price per meal has also increased from £3.25 to £3.30.

Some products have undergone packaging redesigns, switching from round to rectangular shapes. Customers have expressed their discontent on social media platforms like X, noting the 50p price increase and the removal of certain items from the 3 for £7.50 deal. One user lamented the reduced amount of meat in the meals and the disappointment of the price hike. Despite the price increase, some customers, particularly those with dietary restrictions, remain loyal to Tesco's ready meals. This price adjustment follows Tesco's earlier increase in the cost of its lunchtime meal deal in August, which rose from £3.40 with a Clubcard to £3.60. Tesco claims these changes reflect recent improvements in ingredients and the introduction of over 20 new mains to cater to diverse preferences. The company reported robust first-half sales (excluding fuel) and increased profits in October. Despite the price increases, consumers can find ways to save money at supermarkets, such as looking for reduced items with yellow or red stickers, creating shopping lists to avoid impulse purchases, and opting for own or value-type products instead of premium brands
