    My local Lidl puts the stuff nearing it's sell by date on the counter behind the tills and you can take what you want for FREE!! :T

    We've never had a car park sale though :(

    Yeah, same with my local store, and sometimes the stuff has weeks to go until it expires :confused::D:D:D
  • I've never seen this stuff behind the tills, I'll have a good look next time!!!

    Just to let you know that these sales do happen and are genuine. I found out about it through a friend and was told i needed to be there early. I got there at 7.30am and although there was a lot left the TVs and DVD players had gone at 6.30am. I had a trolley full of things ranging from waterproof jackets, leather footballs, ornaments and even lamps. They charged me £20 for the trolley. I then came home and put it all on e bay (41 items) and have made my money back from one item alone. I believe they are advertised in store on flyers so keep a look out. Don't get me wrong it was bedlum and felt like i was on supermarket sweep but it was well worth it. Just remember it's cash only.
    If anyne comes across one please post it, a definite money spinner!!

    I went to one in Ashton under Lyme sometime last year. Was very good - I got a breadmaker, blender, pressure cooker and lots of other bits and bobs.
