Just bought a pack of 6 luxury crackers from Aldi for £9.99. They have really good gifts and are really nice - bargain!

Recent discovery in Netto - tins of Spag Bol. Really tasty meal, and ideal for work - especially with a bit of free Emmenthal cheese (if you've got any left!) sprinkled on top

My wife is usually very brand loyal on butter but I persuaded her to try the Lidl Lurpak lookalike spreadable butter (sold under the name Heuso).

She was raving about it tonight - showed me a near-empty carton!

I can't believe she can't believe it's not Lurpak Spreadable!!

Was in Lidl (Hall Green, Birmingham) today and noticed they already have several post-Xmas offers on sale.

67p Camembert is back. 12-year-old single malt Scotch at £11.99. 99p Lambrusco (4%). Champagne at £8.99, £11.99 or £13.99.

I've just skipped to the end of this thread, coz I realise I have a specific question. I'm addicted to Pepperoni Pizzas, the Co-op do 'Goodfellas' which are brill, but unless they are on promotion, (2 for £3.00) they are expensive. I have a Netto really close, which is organised chaos, and an Aldi about half a mile away.

Do either of these stores do a tasty, thin based crispy job with generous toppings?

Also, do Netto do Bratwurst, and if they do, are they any good.

Interesting thread this.

I'm sure I've seen Goodfellas pizza in Netto in the past. They tend to stock stuff like this then when it runs out they might not have it in for a while. Worth checking them out though.

Can't say that I've noticed Bratwurst in Netto (I may be wrong) ALDI or LIDL would be more likely to stock that I think.
