    I agree the half fat cheddar is very good, must half fat cheese is so mild that its tastless but the Aldi one is really tasty

    I like the Lidl 4 Luxury Caramel Shortcakes at 59p but I've eaten so many I'll have to diet.
    Not keen on the Penguin biscuits.


    I also like the no loud rap music or special promotion offers every five minutes blaring out of the PA and no "have you got a loyalty card" for the millionth time at the checkout.
    Making you use your own bags.

    Lidl are ace. (don't have a Netto or Aldi).

    I really don't like the major supermarkets at all.

    Have to agree with you there although I seem to have been stockpiling them as I found 3 packets in my cupboard this weekend! :eek: :D

    Buy the tiramisu's (individuals) - they are great
    Also get their Museli.
    Their fresh and frozen Pizzas are also great as if their Chicken kievs.


    Don't get their veg - if you are planning on keeping it a few days - only really good for instant use

    I bought some chestnut mushrooms a couple of days before christmas, still good nearly 3 weeks later! (it was around 19-20 days when i finished the mushrooms up).
