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.
