Seven ways to reduce the cost of a cup of tea even further as the price of tea and milk falls
Saving money has become even easier following the recent fall in the price of tea and milk.
Cheaper cuppas will definitely give the country a boost.
And here are some tips to reduce costs even further.
COMMUNI TEA: Fancy a free drink and a chat? Hungry Horse pubs host Communi-tea Cuppas events at least once a month and every guest receives two free cups of Yorkshire Tea.
It's part of our commitment to combat loneliness by 2024 and is a great way to meet people.
GO GREEN: Instead of tea bags, invest in a reusable tea infuser, like the Ikea Idealisk version for £1. Fill it with loose tea, steep and enjoy.

GO BIG: Buying tea in bulk is a smart way to save money in the long run.
Look for retailers or online stores that offer discounts when purchasing larger quantities.
By stocking up on your favorite varieties, you'll not only enjoy per-cup savings, but you'll also ensure you never run out when cravings strike.
TEA-RRIFIC IDEA: Sign up to become a free MyWaitrose member at waitrose.com, then take your reusable cup to the supermarket, scan your membership card and receive your free cup of tea.
BOILING POINT: Only boil the water you need for your brew.
Or a thermal bottle can keep leftover water warm for future cups, saving energy by not having to turn the kettle on again.
BUY A BARGAIN: Don't let leftover tea leaves go to waste. Instead, consider saving your used bag for a second infusion.
Many types, especially loose teas, can be steeped several times without becoming bland.
Let your second cup of coffee steep a little longer to extract any remaining flavor.
BREWING FLAVOR: Instead of splurging on different flavored mixtures, use ingredients you already have at home.
Add a squeeze of lemon juice, a dash of honey or even a pinch of cinnamon to black tea for a fresh take on your usual cup of tea.
