Sorry, bit confused! Are you talking about Aldi or Lidl porridge?

The OP is actually talking about Lidl's porridge oats. May need to update title. To do this click Edit, click Edit again, and then update title.

That's a good price for oats by the way. Are they any good?

I buy Mornflake Superfast Oats which normally cost £2.18/£2.19 though Tesco are currently selling this for £1.50 until 14/02/2012 and works out as 7.5p/100g. Lidl's on the other hand is half a pence cheaper per 100g.

It's 39p per 500g in my local Lidl. Have bought them for years then they disappeared.
Will stock up. Tesco porridge not a patch on Lidl.

Just back from Lidl & it's 39p per 500 gms.Sorry! But they do taste pretty good, bit nutty if you like that. Still better value than Mr t's value rubbish.

I might try and get the offer Tesco are doing on Mornflake oats first though if I can't actually find any in store I may give Lidl's porridge oats a go.

I was actually thinking of checking to see which are the current cheapest, doesn't look like there's any cheaper than this at the moment though.

Incidentally, I believe Lidl's oats went up around about last August from 28p to 39p. Still very cheap though in comparison to others.

Thanks Dave

I have several benchmark items in Lidl, porridge is one of them, free range eggs 89p for 6 (Sains barn 79for6) cooked chicken (only buy with 30% sticker.) ditto Frickadilan burgers.Low fat Yogurt reduced to 49p 500g.
Kievs are now too dear. Fresh chickens good at £2.14kg. Given up on frozne fish and normal cheese. Baileys type drink good value. Plus weekend bargains.
On balance a whole lot better shopping experience at Lidl.
My local Tesco is way too big, dodgy pricing can do shopping in 20 minutes then a long wait for the bus.
Sains a fraction too dear but staff good. Co-op prices just out of the window, only shop there for clearance and bargains.

I bought porridge oats in Aldi on Wednesday, and i'm sure they were 75p for 1kg?

diamond_dave

Yes, 75p /kg in Aldi and 78/kg in Lidl.
