Supermarket giant Sainsbury's has left shoppers horrified after they discovered how much some packs of fish fingers now cost. One shopper was so appalled, they say they nearly 'fell to their knees' upon witnessing the price.
It's no secret that food prices have been vastly increasing in all supermarkets over the past few months. Lurpak butter has been a particular point of conversation, with prices for a single packet reaching as much as £7 a pop.
But now fish fingers have taken the forefront. They took to Twitter to share the revelation, writing: “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. Other social media users rushed into the comments to share their disbelief, says MyLondon.
One user simply wrote: “ £7? Jesus soon reach.”
A third commented: “I remember when this was £3.50. Wow.” A fourth replied: “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.”
One person worked out each finger would come to a total of 23 pence, asking: “23p each is bad???”
Sainsbury's has been approached for comment.
