I'm a regular shopper at Aldi, and am rarely disappointed. I'm a very fussy person when it comes to quality, and without being big-headed, I know quality when I see/taste it. I especially like their smoked salmon, cold meats and cheeses.
Also, every season, Aldi will have a world-food promotion. The nationalities covered are Italian, Greek, German, Spanish, French, Asian. This is what I look forward to more than anything as they bring in delicacies from that nation. In October for example, the German theme starts ready for Oktoberfest, and they sell a multitude of beers, sausages, preserves. And they are very good.0 -

Lidl have been selling milk at 99p for 4pints for weeks now. I don't know if this is a "special" or just local - it's not in the leaflets.
If you have any spare 1pint bottles you can freeze smaller quantities without any problems - only tried this with semi-skimmed.
Bananas at 38p per kilo are another bargain. I buy green ones so they last.if i had known then what i know now0 -
This week these caught my eye - 29p for brocolli; brussel sprouts 39p; baking potatoes 50p and butternut squash 59p.
I am newly converted to this store and being a new pensioner, hop on the free bus with my own bags, buy up the specials and hop back home again so I am not overburdened with heavy shopping. A word of caution, put on your specs to make sure your fresh stuff is as fresh as you'd like it as can't see 'best by' dates on their produce. :T0 -
I was a bit disappointed by their butternut squashes. They seemed a little on the small side to me.0

Haven't tried Aldi lasagne yet, but can highly recommend Lidls. Also, Lidls chocolate is definitely comparable to Cadburys. I would say I like both of them equally.
I agree the Lidl Lasagne is the best i have tasted if you want a ready made oneA bargin is only a bargin if its needed not wanted :money:0 -

I am not impressed with the 99p milk, I opened some, went away for 48 hours and when I came home it was cheese. the date on it was Thursday as well. If I buy milk from Sainsburys its still ok the day after the use by date. Was parched as well from a long motorway drive. Luckily I had bought some Lidl UHT in for such emergencies :rotfl:0
