Has anyone used these cleaning cloths from Aldi.
They appear to be something similar to those wickedly expensive so called "E-Cloths".

If you search for microfibre cloths on the old style board,they come highly recommended-I usually get mine from homebargains.

Don't buy - Coffee Whitener from Aldi - poor quality takes time to dissolve - strange consistency of powder miniscule amounts "cloud" off into air when you spoon

Cloudrider there is a knack to jar opening.Gently but firmly bang the jar on the edge of the lid usually I do this on a worksurface.This releases the pressure and the lid just twists off.I struggled for years before having my eureka moment.

Having just struggled with all the strength I can muster, to open a Lidl El Tequito Hot Salsa Dip, I just wondered if anyone else has problems opening their Lidl jars?

I'm mid 40s, 6ft 1" about 16 stone (not all of it fat... ) and I can only just open them before the veins on my forehead pop. I visualise all those pensioners who flock to Lidl on Mondays and Thursdays, dying of malnutrition at home, surrounded by unopened jars; or is it just me, am I a wimp?

MMM just my type....whoops back to post, did you try banging it a few times on the worktop? seems to loosen lids for me

I use their regular stock microfibre cloths, and they're fine.

Aldi do an amazing fresh pesto sauce in their chillers, I highly reccomend it, so so so much nicer than the stuff in jars
