Sainsbury’s shoppers left stunned as box of fish fingers now costs £7

Shoppers have spoken of their shock after finding out that a box of fish fingers cost £7 in Sainsbury’s.

One shopper took to Twitter to reveal their revelation about the price of the much-loved freezer staple.

The tweet said:  “Nearly fell to my knees in de people food establishment.”

The packet of Birds Eye 30 Cod Fish Fingers (totally 840g) were being sold for £7 at the popular supermarket, and other social media users rushed into the comments to share their disbelief too.

The shock of the fish finger price increase comes as the cost of living crisis has pushed up costs of food, transport and petrol like never before.

Most people now find that when they do their weekly food shop, their usual buys have been increased by several pennies.

What have people said about the price?

One user simply wrote on Twitter: “ £7? Jesus soon reach.”

While other comments included: “I remember when this was £3.50. Wow.”

Another person said: “Sainsbury’s absolutely bugging.”

Some even shared their shock at what other products were costing them, with someone explaining: “I paid £3.80 for @Warburtons gluten free wraps yesterday - it would be cheaper to live off mc ds at this rate. There’s 5 wraps in there. Sickening.”
