    :) Feel better now?

    The one thing I do like about Lidl and Aldi is they act like a buffer zone, and keep the scruffiest of scruffs out of Asda!

    Enjoy your 19p Wheaty Bix, your 12p bars of Crapolate, and the delicious fruit and veg they found in the local foodbank's bin!

    If you hate Aldi & Lidl so much - why are you interested ( in a different thread ) about when the vouchers are printed in the papers ? How can you find it possible to find £40 worth of stuff to buy ?

    Blimey, where do you live? 1992 by the sounds of it. Generally, Asda is these days considered to attract the "scruffiest of scruffs" (chavs) out of all of the supermarkets. You obviously haven't been to an Aldi or Lidl for a while, all the ones I go in are full of very clean looking working and middle-class types. I pop into Asda probably once a month and assume that's where Jeremy Kyle poaches most of his guests.

    Enjoy your £4 Weetabix and your £2 Hershey's chocolate - generally considered to be the world's worst chocolate.

    And food banks don't have ANY fresh fruit and veg as policy so, if you did read some article about it being chucked away, it could have been from Waitrose for all the difference it makes, it would have been chucked anyway.

    Well, dlusman, I don't mind using the £5 vouchers as I can stock up on Heinz beans, Nescaf!, cat litter, bread and stuff.
    And Scritti (you're a Troll's dream by there way), like I said, just keep kidding yourself petal. And I'm sure if you keep repeating, "It DOES taste really good. It DOES taste really good." Over and over in your head as you're eating, I'm sure it'll help.


    (And I'm just having a laugh. Don't take stuff too seriously) :)

    Ha ha! Well that killed a few hours on a dull and rainy day off - cheers!!

    Suppose I'd better go and do something useful around the house before the missus notices how lazy I'm being now.

    Bah.

    Have a great day everyone!!

    I tell my wife the baby's been a pain all day, crying and whinging, that's why nothing's been done! I then get loads of sympathy, a coffee made, and she makes me put my feet up! Silly cow ;)
