More than 70 per cent of meal deals are purchased by customers with a Clubcard membership.
The increase comes days after official data from the Office for National Statistics showed that food and drink inflation jumped to 14.5% last month – the highest since 1980.
The cost of food production has jumped in the face of the war in Ukraine, which has sparked higher grain, oil and energy prices, as well as weakness in the pound.
