    Sorry everyone, I have tried looking back through this thread but my phone is being a proper bell.

    Don't know how many of you know about click snap?

    https://www.quidco.com/clicksnap/offers/all/

    15p back on cucumbers
    20p back on iceberg lettuce
    30p on strawberries
    20p back on red onions

    offers at Aldi/lidl this week

    You just take a photo of the receipt and the refund lands in your quidco account.

    Makes a cucumber just 24p this week at Aldi as its in super 6!
    Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

    Rampant Recycler
    Aldi have UK-made beef jerky, 50g for £1.79 as a Specialbuy. Utterly delicious, much nicer than US imported stuff. Same brand is £2.49 on the company's (Laverstoke Park Farm) own website.

    I tried the Carlos frozen Diavolo pizza last night from Aldi,
    very thin base which I really liked and very similar to Pizza Express Diavolo
    but tastes better in my opinion. Lots of toppings BUT I was shocked by how many Jalopenos were on it...nearly took my gob off :)
    but I like spicy food..will deffo buy again

    A thought I just occurred to me.

    I remember at school, in the late 80s when we brought in our packed lunches, we got teased for having Tesco or Sainsburys own label crisps and chocolate bars.

    Do kids today get teased for having Aldi/Lidl brands?

    Are they as good as the ones from the 99p shop?

    Was in Lidl early this morning and heard the middle classes boasting to each other about their savings vs Tesco whilst queuing :o
