Tesco is adding more products to its discount range despite fears that the groceries are eating into its profits.
A spokesman confirmed that the new items will be phased in over the coming weeks rather than being made available immediately.
Cupcakes and mouthwash will be added to Tesco’s range soon, while dog food and cinema popcorn are hitting the shelves this week.
The discount goods were first introduced at Tesco in October, after rivals Aldi and Lidl began to perform well as the credit crunch hit shoppers’ budgets.
