    Aldi.....

    Cheese Puffs (wotsits) are very nice and of course a fraction if the price...99p for about 15 in a pack.

    Snack'n Play (Choc Dip) were lovely. The chocolate tastes like nutella and when my dd finished the pot we realised there was a toy inside.

    On the advice of a poster I purchased the 4 pack of frozen kievs, instead of the yukky fridge ones. The frozen are much tastier.

    Actually there are 10 packs - I can't tell much difference from the real thing - yummy and a huge bargain compared to buying "proper" Wotsits.

    Sensitive Baby wipes - I prefer Lidl's to Aldi's, there are 80 in the pack (not 72) and they are really fragrance free, Aldi's aren't, I can still smell them....

    Tried the Aldi Picpoul de pinet on saturday, i had read that aldi was going to start stocking this wine and so it was a nice surprise on spotting it on the shelve and i have to say it tasted very nice.
    Also tried the cotes de provence rose wine and this was also very nice.

    Both wines priced at £5.99. The picpoul looks the same bottle as tesco finest which is usually priced at £7.99.

    With the muscadet and the Albarino also at £5.99 these are the summer drinks to stock up with.

    Just wished they would do a 25% off six bottles.:rotfl:
    Keep right on :T :beer:

    Was in Aldi the other day and picked up one of their 'living' lettuce. A woman asked what it tastes like. Seriously ? It's lettuce :rotfl:

    Just back from Aldi and they are selling 12 x 440ml cans Carlsberg for £6.00 which is a pretty awesome deal. Not one of their own products I know but it is just such a saving over what I was paying in Tesco a year ago. Usual price had been £7.49.

    £5 voucher tomorrows Daily Mirror, unfortunately £45 spend nowadays, but as I feed my dog a chicken thigh a day buy 6 packs = 30 thighs and that`s £12 spent.
    Do I need it or just want it.
