Pay less loose fruit and vegetables since they come in their own natural wrapping

As the government announces plans to cut down on plastic waste, Money Saving Expert found that buying wrapped-up fruit and veg is CHEAPER than buying them loose.
Consumers are being charged extra for going plastic-free.
A three-pack of mixed peppers from Lidl costs 95p but £1.44 loose. They also sell a pack of five oranges for 95p but the same ones loose cost £1.50. Same for Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco
Waitrose was the only supermarket where it is cheaper to buy your groceries loose, apart from mushrooms where they were found to cost the same.
