    German Lager - Lidl Perlenbacher Premium pils, Aldi Steinhauser

    German Weissbier - Aldi Schofferhofer

    All top spec and excellent value in this country of hyperinflated beer prices
  • each to their own Crisp, but I wouldn't use them again.To be fair, during the day they weren't too bad, although I thought they didn't absorb the pee too well and my soon didn't seem to comfortable in them.Also, they were probably better than the Tesco cheapo brand too.
    I will have to check out the frozen lobster, it sounds a steal...

    went in yesterday and got a whole cooked frozen lobster for 4.99
    i got some of these last year when they had them and they were really nice and quite meaty

    I've just bought lobster x 2 & a 800g box of cooked head & shell on individually frozen big fat prawns for £4.49

    Lidl Cloudy Lemonade is nice too.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!
    (OK my English isn't great, the sciences, maths & IT are my strong points!)

  • Last year I saw the Lobsters, advertised in Lidl's own posh nosh type booklet.
    I kept umming and ahing about them (lets face it, when was the last time you saw a lobster to buy for £4.99?).

    By the time I went to get one, some local enterprising resterauter bought the sodding lot up (nigh on 300 Lobster) and proceeded to sell them throughout the year for £22 a pop.
    Nice.

    Anyway, I see Lidl havn't advertised them on their weekly flyer this year, so thankyou for letting me know!

    I went out and bought 4. Yesterday we had Lobster and Mash. How decadent! And honestly - a fiver for a whole Lobster? Go and get them now!!!
