Morrisons meal deal: is it good value?

You could save a lot of money with the meal deal – if you go for the most expensive options, you’ll save £10.50 compared to buying everything separately.

Also, you get more bang for your buck compared to Marks & Spencer’s Dine In for Two deal (priced at £12) as you get an extra main and side, although some would argue M&S meals are of a higher quality.

And while you get more food with Morrisons meal deal, M&S offers pricier options, including steaks and salmon, as well as a wider range of desserts.

If you’re not interested in what Morrisons or M&S has to offer, it’s worth checking out the cheaper £10 Tesco meal deal, Co-op’s £5 frozen offer or even Jack’s £7 meal deal.
