    Tried the 6 packs and the 30 packs. There just is no consistency to the flavour and taste anymore. I used to love the Prawn Cocktail crisps but now they are just bland

    Now that is so weird! One of the "essentials" I dropped by for on Saturday evening was crisps - the crisp monster in my life was dropping by in the evening - so I selected Prawn Cocktail. I thought they were very highly flavoured, almost like a strong S&V!

    I stand corrected rr - had a pack from another batch yesterday and they were bland.

    SO happy to see the 'Creamy Dark' Choceur 200g bars back in my local Aldi. They used to be called 'Classic Dark'.... then they seemed to disappear? It hasn't changed at all, still the best dark chocolate I've ever had.

    Are the Lidl apricots any good? They look a bit anaemic on the weekly flyer.

    No, they have a larger range of less lucrative offers available all week.

    Lidl shampoo& conditioner down to 35p a bottle. Coconut ,tea tree etc. If you give to the food banks it's great.

    I do use it myself and my daughters like the coconut & lychee. Though I do take a few extra things monthly for donating.

    I finally got around to trying Aldi's Quark for a cheesecake > disappointing. It has only marginally more flavour than T's plain Fromage Frais but the texture is way to watery for "real" Quark. Back to the cheaper one it is for me.

    Lidl "Gelatelli" Premium Ice Cream cones (Pistachio) - currently on offer at 6 for £1.19.

    Delicious with a crisp chocolate topping and nutty, almond-flavour ice cream.
