    Well I ended up going and getting my shopping. I went to aldi and tesco. Does anyone think lidl is better than aldi? I'm gonna try there next time. It's my first time for using aldi and it was ok but there's no way I could do all my shopping there.

    Yippee! I've had a NSD :):) They're usually as rare as hen's teeth for me, so the fact that I've had one is a big boost to my plan to have 5 this month.
