Lidl sugar free faux bull (red bull)

I was in Lidl yesterday and their sugar free fauxbull is 64p for a pack of six!!!! I went to tesco later on and real sugar free red bull in there is about £4.50 for six cans!

    But having tasted some of these cheap copy red bulls i have to say you often get what you pay for. The Morrisons own version is nigh on undrinkable
  • I find the Lidl one fine, and it doesn't have the sickly smell that actual red bull has

    Agree. the lidl one is absolutely fine.

    Sugar free however is apparently a farce and won't offer anywhere near the same 'buzz' as the real deal sugaryness!
  • yeah i spotted that last week. I haven't tried to one yet, but based on the fact most of the supermarket ones are at best £1.50 for a pack of 6, this is a great price.
