Ocado is on average 7.2% cheaper than Iceland

Likely range: from Ocado 12.5% cheaper to 3.2% dearer.
ⓘIf we had drawn a different but equally fair set of basket products, the figure would fall inside this range 95 times out of 100. Products that share a shop product are drawn together, so a shared price never counts twice. The range runs from cheaper to dearer, so these two shops are too close to call.

Read the other way: Iceland is on average 7.8% dearer than Ocado (a percentage changes with the shop you start from).

Based on 229 products in the Price Monitor's basket that both shops sell, matched to 128 different pairs of shop products. Below are 75 of those pairs, spread across categories by household spending. For the full list, email research@allsupers.co.uk.

Ocado was dearer on 89, cheaper on 128 and the same price on 12 of these 229 products. These counts show direction only; the average above also weighs how large each difference is and each category's share of spending.

Each row starts from a product in our basket. At each shop we take the most similar own-label product, confirmed by our automated matching check. One shop product can be the closest match for several basket products, so it can appear in more than one row.

Iceland is shown but not ranked: its own-label range has no products similar enough to compare in fish, personal care, or sugar and sweets. Iceland's figures here cover the other categories.

How we compare prices

We compare the price per kilo, per litre or per item, so pack sizes do not distort the result. Items sold by the piece are only compared with a similar number of pieces. Own-label means each shop's own brands, whatever their name; premium ranges rarely pass our matching check, so these are mostly standard lines. Prices as of 31 August 2026; where a cheaper promotion was running, we use that price.

How the figure is worked out

For each spending category we average the price differences of the products both shops sell, then combine the categories by their share of household spending. The ranking on the Price Monitor page compares all shops at once, through every other shop as well, so it can differ from this two-shop figure; for these two shops the ranking gives Ocado 2.9% cheaper. Categories with fewer than 10 products both shops sell: bread and cereals: 2 products, 24% of the weight, non-alcoholic beverages: 4 products, 10% of the weight, oils and fats: 1 product, 3% of the weight. They count at their full share of household spending, like every category, so they can move the figure more than their few products suggest.
