Orange and apple juices are among the products that shoppers can save the most on as Lidl rolls out a price-cutting campaign through August.

Joining a growing trend as the squeeze of inflationary prices continues affecting customers, Lidl has announced an initiative to cut prices on select products in its U.S. stores. Beginning June 8 and running through August, the retailer will roll out its price-cutting campaign on more than 100 items ranging from meat and frozen prepared foods to household products.

The largest savings will be available on items including Black Angus top sirloin steak, dried cherries, orange juice, ground coffee, bratwurst, hot Italian sausage, apple juice and pound cake. According to the company, shopping for items included in the campaign can help customers save up to $50 per trip.

"As many families contend with rising prices due to inflation, we hope to ease their financial burden at the checkout counter by investing even more to lower our prices," said Lidl US President and CEO Michal Lagunionek. "This price-cutting drive is part of Lidl's ongoing commitment to offer the best value in every community we serve."
