I Found the Cheapest Pumpkins at Tesco, Asda, Morrisons Aldi and Lidl
Aldi offers pumpkins from 42p, undercutting competitors, while experts share tips to reuse seeds and reduce the 18,000 tonnes of pumpkin waste nationwide.
- This year, supermarket pumpkins start at 42p, with Aldi offering Munchkin pumpkins at that price alongside larger sizes across the United Kingdom.
- Price comparisons show gaps between Aldi and other supermarkets, as Aldi’s Large pumpkins at £1.59 are 55% cheaper than Waitrose and Extra Large pumpkins cost £2.39.
- An estimated 24 million pumpkins will be sold across the nation with potential 18,000 tonnes of waste, but Mark Sage recommends simple reuse hacks to reduce costs next year.
- Mark Sage, B&Q Horticulture expert, recommends storing the largest, healthiest pumpkin seeds in an envelope or airtight container in the fridge to keep them viable for up to a year, with tools starting at £4.
- Sow pumpkin seeds indoors from April to early May, then transplant outdoors by late May or June to harvest after around 90 to 120 days; if not planting, offer raw, unsalted seeds in bird feeders from late autumn through winter.
