    WOW! Never seen one of these in Sunny Bridgwater's Lidl's.
    Not in Wells or the new one in Street either

    There hasn't been one of these in Worcester for YEARS! When I got there by accident there wasn't much left but I got loads of kids clothes for £1.

    Just a caution, i bought an electical item that didnt work so took it back, had a hard time getting my money back and the manager said all items were sold as seen with no warranty as it was a "car park sale" even tho there were no notices up anywhere and no receipts were given.

    I eventually got my money back with a fight, it may be just that manager that was being a nob.

    I can totally understand where the manager was coming from BUT there SHOULD have been notices up.;)
    You may walk and you may run
    You leave your footprints all around the sun
    And every time the storm and the soul wars come
    You just keep on walking

    I would love to go to one of these, they sound great, any near Gloucester or Bristol then please post.
    I get the Lidl newsletter each week and usually don't pay much attention but will read it all in future just incase one is mentioned.

    The one I went to in Wells was great. They had Gazebos up and there were great big boxes full of stuff for 50p upwards. Then a lorry arrived and unloaded more and as they were unloading the boxes on pallets people were practically fighting to get into them.
    If you hear of one these are the things to do:-
    Take plenty of cash
    Wear gloves
    Take someone to look after your trolley so you can fill more than one
    Try to have a bag to go over your shoulder to keep our hands free
    Make sure you dont have to go anywhere as you may have to stay a while
    Now all we need is another sale!!
