Good afternoon. Someone on HUKD has helpfully summarised all the free birthday gifts from various apps:

When a new Lidl opens they always do a card which entitles you to a free product if you spend over fifteen quid. We had a new one opened last week, offer was free box of chocs followed by week of free olive oil, then washing powder, then bum fodder, coffee and kitchen roll.

Wish ours had done this, it opened ages ago and do not recall anything like it. Even when another one opened only a few years ago, very small one, they did nothing like it.

In my little A they have to buzz for a supervisor for even a £1+ voucher!
So my 3 wine pags will have to be saved until I visit a large store later in the week.

My back is really sore today after clearing the drive of snow, I knew wellies would have been more comfortable than kitten heels for shovelling, but hey ho! one has to keep up one's appearances

Thank you op for the wine :A and Savvy :A for the kitchen towels :T

Kitchen towels are good to go (mine have already gone) vs M:
1x ASDA Shades Kitchen Towels (2roll) £2.00 £1.00
1x ASDA Shades Decorated Kitchen Towels (2roll) £2.00 £1.00

A's "Average 100 sheets per roll" vs M's "Average 50 sheets per roll". M mix and match mbuy. It's possible to buy just one but any comp. should be £2.00vs £1.24 M. I thought, before I entered my receipt, "The APG never works does it - I bet this isn't going to work" but it does!

Curly Wurly still good vs M:
4x Cadbury Curly Wurly Bar (26g) £1.40 £1.00

Vs S
4x Cadbury Curly Wurly Bar (26g) £1.40 £1.00

I now have details of all the wines that my A instore is showing as being part of the 3 for 2 offer. Other than Martini Asti, I do not have any details from M instore but will work through them to see what online says for M. This is probably the right way to go: it's no good trying to get details of wines from instore M first, that may not be good in themselves at M price, but instead to limit to the 3 for 2 items in A (there are so many of them though - just how many wines does A have?:eek:) and then find which of them are in M.

Thanks Elaine, this is one to be on watch for, so easy to see what we want when they send these promotions and what we are used to getting

I hope they have zero uptake on this. It looks like an experiment to me, they've probably sent Elaine's version to so many eBayers to see how many people actually do it, as obviously eBay could be better off due to the volume of private sellers' items not actually selling.

Thanks for the heads up. My offer is the 'usual' one but I'll be very mindful in future.

We've just been to a newly opened lidl near us. It's three times the size of the one we usually go to, there is space to move around in there, self service check outs that take card and cash and it was generally a nice place to be

This coming from someone who pre-elite days was an aldi/lidl snob

I've just been to Lidl, two carrier bags full, spent £13, which I thought was very good. Fridge looks a bit happier now, I've been running it down in recent weeks.

Next time I go I will browse the freezers more - today I got Chicago 4 cheese deep pan pizzas on offer 'while stocks last' at 1.25. I also noticed they have cod fish fingers at 1.29 - which is a good price if it's their normal price.

I've got one but its when you spend £20 or more. I spent £15. I wasn't spending an extra fiver for the sake of a box of chocs I don't like :rotfl:

I went for beef Wellington at £7.99 also seems like it's the only shop in the area with milk, bread, pizza and eggs :rotfl: I like Greek week in lidl and always stock up on a specific olive oil but this one seems to be doing it permanently
