It did seem to rocket up in price a while back. But the discount superstores (like Aldi) and the supermarket own brands have brought the price back down a smidge.


A 340g tin of Princes corned beef now is around the £2.50 mark.

The same in the sainsburys own brand is around £2 and in their 'Basics' range, £1.50.

The price for fresh minced beef at Sainsburys is £3 for 500 grams standard mince , and £1.46 for 400 grams of the 'Basics' minced beef.

So, yeah. You can get fresh minced beef for less than the cost of corned beef.

But, that's based on Sainsburys and there are cheaper places to shop!
