Good and Bad Buys from Aldi & Lidl *Do NOT Expire Please*

My store had signs up everywhere stating all food dated 25th, 26th or 27th was half price. No Turkeys left though but this was 20 minutes before closing on Xmas Eve.

Some good reductions on Christmas chocolate/cakes /biscuits in Aldi at the moment ( on SELs so should be all stores )

Got some lovely chocolate covered Stollen bites - 79p for 300g . Best before March , so bought a few packets

A huge big UP to Lidl this morning :T :T :T

They have an open bag of coal on the packing shelf for customers to take a piece to use when 'first footing' supplied bags to put it in and tongs to lift it :T

Well Done Lidl (my local shop in Glenrothes anyway)

As a transgender Muslim lesbian gender neutral this blatant Christian tradition deeply offends me shame on you Lidl.

It's a Scottish and Northern English thing.

Cornucopia

We discussed a few pages back that Lidl had dropped Limescale Remover from it's small but effective cleaning range.

Well... it's back. Not the same product (different active ingredient), but it is a specific (and effective) product for limescale removal with a proper gel consistency and the expected blue colour.

It's in a traditional transparent blue bottle, and is cheaper than before (£1.49 for 500ml, compared to £1.78 IIRC).

All sorts of warnings on it, so label-reading recommended.

Cornucopia

Most of the remaining Christmas Cakes, Biscuits, etc. in my Aldi significantly reduced today:-

- Chocolate Truffles: 89p and 99p.
- Iced Luxury Christmas Cake Bar: 59p
- Pretzel Selection: 39p

Clowance

specially selected iced christmas cake £1.29, very nice

Bottom right of the section, a 340g tin at 89p
(at least that seems to be the location locally)

Still zero pineapple in my local Lidl I look every time.
