Tesco has reduced the price of a key shopping essential, with other retailers following suit.
We reported earlier this week how the supermarket had dropped the cost of milk for the first time since the start of the pandemic.
It's reduced the price of all sizes, with a four pint bottle down from £1.65 to £1.55, two pints from £1.30 to £1.25 and a pint now 90p instead of 95p.

The new Tesco prices, described as 'market leading for the UK retail sector', have sparked somewhat of a price war on the product, with both Sainsbury's and Aldi dropping costs too.
But it doesn't affect its overall position in our weekly comparison, where, with a bill of £12.30, it's still coming out as second most expensive for the eight items we've been tracking since last March.
Only Asda is more expensive, £12.50, for the shop, which, as well as the two-pint bottle of milk, also includes a loaf of bread, a pack of chicken breasts, a pack of mince, tea bags, coffee, beans and butter.
Over the last year we've seen prices soar at all the stores, so much so that the shopping basket of goods now costs £12 or more at every store except for Lidl - and that's not too far behind at £11.88.
Aldi is second cheapest at £12.06, followed closely by Morrisons at £12.11 and Sainsbury's at £12.26.
Tesco says its milk price drop is part of its 'commitment to providing great value on family staples' at a time when many households are still feeling the impact of the cost of living crisis. It's also locking in prices on more than 1,000 everyday products until July 5.
