A woman has left shoppers baffled after showing off her most recent meal deal from Morrisons, which has people praising it as 'great value' after learning the price. The meal deal, costing just £3.75, included a DIY pasta salad from the supermarket's salad bar, a Gü zillionaire cheesecake, and a Jimmy's cookie butter iced coffee. The post on Reddit quickly garnered attention, with many users amazed by the value and the inclusion of the salad bar in the deal.
What the Meal Deal Included
The woman shared a photo of her haul, which featured a medium-sized container from the salad bar filled with creamy pasta salad and topped with bacon bits. She then added a Gü Zillionaire cheesecake, which typically costs £3.95 for a pack of two, and a bottled Jimmy's cookie butter iced coffee as her drink. The total came to £3.75, which is cheaper than Tesco's Clubcard meal deal at £3.85 or £4.25 without a card.
Shoppers React to the Value
Many Reddit users were shocked to learn that Morrisons' salad bar is part of the meal deal. One person commented, 'Today I learned that the DIY salads are part of a meal deal, this changes everything for me!' Another wrote, 'Morrisons salad is the ultimate meal deal hack.' The poster replied, 'Value is incredible. I couldn’t even finish it. Had to put half in the fridge for later.'
Comparison to Other Supermarket Meal Deals
While Tesco's meal deal is often considered one of the cheapest, Morrisons' offering at £3.75 undercuts it. The inclusion of the salad bar, which allows customers to create their own pasta or salad bowls, adds flexibility and perceived value. One user noted, 'Morrisons?! WOW! that's fabulous for the price.' However, another commented, 'Would have been better if you filled the tub. There's still room for another few scoops in there!'
