    Recommend in Aldi
    Fruit & Veg (best quailty & price, so much cheaper that Tesco)
    Easter eggs/ chocolate bunnies
    Wine Red & white
    olives & Feta Cheese in Jar (my fav)

    Don't like
    No baskets
    Rich Tea Biscutes (they are too sweet)
    Having to bring own bags (I always forget).

    :jMeant to mention earlier that Lidl's bread mixes are great. I use a Panasonic breadmaker recommended by my FAVOURITE store, Lakeland. Try out which you like best - all are good and v. cheap


    Can't remember who was talking earlier about eczema and conditioner. Personally I think anyone using more chemicals just for an artificial scent is daft and a dead cert for skin conditions. Remember all this stuff about bathing babies too much stems from hospitals and then mums at home using stuff in bath water - smells great but clean baby smell much better.
    I bathed mine twice a day with plain water (hair as well) until about 18 months. Only trouble with their skin was with 2nd one in hospital who was born with slightly dry skin. As I was unwell nurse gave first two baths and despite me saying no she put Infacare in the water - skin made much much worse!

    I have always used Persil Non biological - hope you all realise that companies suggest using too much product to boost sales. Please experiment by cutting down bit by bit with each wash. I live in a soft water area and use less than 1/4 scoop of powder for a full wash. This is why I would NEVER use tablets as I would be using way too much each time.
    In case you think I'm a drty *** there is a waiting list at the school thrift shop for my boys' out grown white school shirts which will have gone through 4 years wear.

    In addition, a boy in one of my classes really stank and no-one wanted to sit near him - his clothes were stiff from too much soap powder and the whiff of the stuff was overpowering; if you use too much you won't notice it yourself but others will!!! :eek:

    Please don't buy cappuvino at Lidl. It is a mix of coffee and red wine which is as revolting as it sounds. That's the last time he goes to Lidl on his own:eek::eek:

    I had to check the date of your post to make sure it wasn't an April fools.
    The room must have been full of blue sky thinkers when they came up with that product and name.

    Unfortunately it is all too real and available at a Lidl near you. It beggars belief, doesn't it? If you search for it on google images you can actually see a picture of it. So you know what not to buy when you go there next.
