Would you buy Douwe if it were £1.60 per 100 grams ?

I sure as hell would. I usually wait until the Pure Gold is on offers do then buy a few, it can go as low as £4 for 190g but atm the cheapest is Poundstretcher for £4.99.

Are you going to tell us a Lidl brand is the same stuff?

I was reccomended Aldi's instant fair trade Colombian. It's really good. I normally buy Carte Noir, or Lor as it's now called, but it has become stupidly expensive when not on offer!

It's a 100 g jar and has a black and orange label with the fair trade symbol on it.

I was dubious, as I had tried Aldi instant coffee before and didn't like it, but this one is lovely. Think it's around 1.89 a jar.

On a related note, anyone know if Aldi do any Nespresso compatable capsules.

Both Aldi and Lidl do Nespresso pods.

My preference too ! Sadly it's the Continental Rich Roast

Do you, a family member, a friend, a work colleague

COSTCO ?

Until June 3rd

750g for £11.99

With the Rich Roast I usually use a tiny bit less of the coffee and add a little extra milk (Full fat @ 4%) and it's not bad
The Gold is good even with semi-skimmed

Has anyone tried Aldi's anti-perspirant and roll-on? I'm currently using Mitchum, which is great but still £2 - even in cheap places like Wilkos etc - and the Aldi stuff is 79p. I didn't get on with their Lacura too much but notice they now have an "Activ" range.

I get on fine with it and Lidl's too (Cien?) which is a similar price. Has to be worth a try for you.

I must be honest, I don't get on with Lidl's roll on (womens). Did nothing at all, sadly went to the bin. I'm going to try again with the spray though as if it works it'll be a bargain.

McAllister's oatcake bites from Lidl are just too good for words, I got them at the weekend at a reduced price offer to try and now wish I had not tried them as I will be forced to pay full price when I fancy a nibble again

(may not be available outside Scotland)

Aldi have got some brilliant women’s disposable razors that are new. They’re £3.39 and as good as any Venus 5 blade razor I’ve tried. You get 3 in a pack.

Dulano Mini Bockwurst from Lidl make ideal hotdogs and although it doesnt say it on the packet, I found that about 30 seconds in the microwave heats one sausage just right (peirce the skin).
