  • A savvy farm shop has discovered that his prices are in fact cheaper than the 'discount' supermarket chains

Despite many customers seeing slashed supermarket prices as cheaper than those found at independent stores, Foxbury Farm Shop in Oxford has found quite the opposite.

The latest prices revealed the store to be 16 pence cheaper than Tesco on large free-range eggs, and a whopping 44 pence cheaper than Waitrose.

By using a table to compare prices, the store has clearer beaten the big five including the Co-op on value for money.

As a result the store is convinced that farm shops not only save money, but also due to their locality; time and food miles.

The study was conducted on 18th October 2011 and included two categories; free-range large and medium eggs.
