Supermarkets have slashed the cost of milk this week in a competition to help keep costs low even as the cost of food increases.
Tesco started the price war on Wednesday, April 12 when the retailer cut the cost of its milk for the first time in three years. The price of a four pint bottle dropped from £1.65 to £1.55 whilst two pints went from £1.30 to £1.25 and one pint was reduced from 95p to 90p.

Some analysts have suggested this is a possible sign that grocery prices could finally start to come down.

Laith Khalaf, head of investment analysis at AJ Bell in Bristol, told the BBC yesterday the price cuts are "some light at the end of the inflationary tunnel for consumers".
"It also suggests that the UK's fiercely competitive supermarket sector isn't simply going to cash in on profits as wholesale costs fall, because there's always a competitor waiting in the wings to do some
