Is supermarket fashion the new high street?
DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in:
The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family.
Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street.
Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year.
So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful?
Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative.
A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year.
Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

Sainsbury's shoppers rush to pick up new ‘funky' version of beloved chocolate bar – fans say it's ‘absolutely brilliant'

SWEET-TOOTHED Brits are rushing to Sainsbury's to pick up a new version of a classic chocolate bar. The "funky" version recently hit shelves, enticing shoppers with an exciting new twist. 1 The New Funky KitKat Chunky is now available from Sainsbury's A rare version of a KitKat has sent chocolate fans into a frenzy as they rush to try the fun new flavour. The KitKat Chunky Funky is the latest limited edition treat from Nestle. And shoppers can pick up this sweet treat from Sainsbury's for just £1 a bar. The highly-anticipated new snack was shared on the Facebook group One shopper shared a picture of a four-pack containing snack size versions of the chocolate treat. New twist It adds a fun twist on the original KitKat Chunky, substituting in a cocoa wafer, which is coated in marbled milk and white chocolate. Shoppers shared their excitement over the new release in the comments section. "I already had them, absolutely brilliant," wrote one impressed customer. Most read in Fabulous "Oh I need to get to the shop," said another eager Facebook user. "To quote Andy Pipkin: 'I want that one'," joked a third commenter. We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon History of KitKats The classic KitKat Chunky first hit UK shelves in 1999, following the original two and four finger bars. It has solidified itself as a fan favourite, but is also known for its innovative limited edition flavours. Such as the Peanut Butter, White Chocolate, and Orange editions of the bar. Other limited edition versions inlcude the Hazelnut Cream, Coconut, and Brownie. Meanwhile, the original KitKat bar was first established in 1935, in York. How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger. More on new flavours And Nestle previously released two new KitKat flavours in recent weeks. Terry's Chocolate Orange has launched a new flavour but it is only available from one UK supermarket. Plus, two new Cadbury's chocolate bars that have hit UK shelves for first time. Read more on the Irish Sun And Quality Street has brought back an iconic discontinued chocolate bar after two years.
