Absolutely no head ratings on those tents, I'd avoid them like the plague unless you plan to get soaked!

Has anyone noticed the trend at Lidl to stock branded goods? For instance, the pharmaceuticals are now mostly from the big suppliers, their own, much cheaper, items are no longer stocked. For instance, Lemsip is often referred to as a typical rip off but it has now replaced their own much cheaper and equally effective brand.

In the tools section, the name Stanley is common but the tools are inferior but more are expensive then their own items. Similarly they offer Finish dish washer tablets at many times the price of their own brand; at the moment they are both available.

I have been a fan of Lidl for many years but I am starting to have doubts. Thank heavens we still have Aldi!

Lidl's Dieter Schwarz isn't far behind.

Aldi have invisible stores
If you put in SN9 on their store locator up comes a place called Masborough and a map of Marlborough Wilts evidently with an Aldi store onthe village green.
No way on their site to tell them tho.
Hope the navigation round the aisles is better

Netto also offer e-mail updates twice a week which are getting better and better each week. See www.netto.co.uk for details and to sign up.

They save me a fortune weekly if you can put up with the mess, poor pricing visibility and the queues.:beer:

Bit of a random question... but can anyone tell me if you can get cashback at Aldi (I'm not talking about commission... I mean actual cash back when you pay for your goods). As I need cash and Aldi is just close to my house... otherwise the nearest cashpoint is a £1.80 bus journey away!

Hiya,

My local Aldi does cashback, so I'm guessing other Aldis would aswell.

I can confirm they do offer cashback,
