    Has anyone found the lemon premium washing up liquid has been filled with the original green formula? Its been going on for weeks at the Aldi store i go to.

    Yes it is bright blue, but smells of lemon.

    New product: Lidl Skyr - Thick, zero-fat yogurt with fruit flavours. I had the Blueberry, which was a little light on fruit, but had an intensely purple colour. Very tasty - slightly reminiscent of zero fat Fromage Frais.

    But only the Lidl one, not the Arla Skyr.

    It's one of the inconvenient facts about Lidl & Aldi that their detractors overlook - many of their products are made by mainstream food manufacturers in the same factories in which they make branded products.

    The most obvious example is Warburtons Bread, but there are plenty of others.

    .... breakfast wheat biscuits....

    I like the L*dl ones - they have two boxes - Bixies are the nicer ones, Simply are smaller/hard. Eat Bixies, avoid Simply.

    Just tried Lidl's W5 washing up liquid for the first time (don't have a store nearby, so this was an irregular visit).

    Works really well, need to use about half as much as the previous branf I was using (from Home Bargains).

    Can't really figure out what it smells of, but it is very pleasant.

    New Product:-

    Aldi Wholemeal Wraps - 8 large wraps for 69p

    It's not clear whether these replace the "Best of Both" wraps, or are an addition to the range.

    Does anybody know if Aldi had got any Christmas stock out yet? They had their version of Ferrero Rocher last year and honestly I thought they tasted better than the Ferrero Rocher and half the price!

    I saw what I think was them in Aldi today (I think they're called 'nocciola'). A different looking pack to last year (silver coloured), and only containing 12 (I think last year it was 16), but the price is unchanged at £1.99.
