    Mini (200g) Marzipan/Butter Stollens still there in ALDI today -- now reduced to 9p! Yes, please!
    Seems like the Christmas stuff just isn't quite going away yet :)

    I have not been in Aldi for over a week, your post has now got me wanting to go there tomorrow just for the stollen 😛
  • Good buy: the Lidl mandarins on offer atm - clemenvilla variety  :)
    Not so good buy: Aldi Lacura Provive (Pantene-a-like) shampoo - has given me a flyaway barnet  :#
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.

    I asked about the stollen bites in Aldi this morning and the manager had not heard about selling them for 9p, they had none left anyway.

    This was not the bites, it was the 200g solid singles (!) (71752 Mini Stollen 9p, down from 49p) -- must've been the last few still hanging on.

    Totally OT, but has anyone else had bookmarks taking you back to the last page viewed rather than the last post? It just seems to have happened in the last couple of days. Just curious?🤔

    Tried the Aldi click and collect service last week and was really impressed.     The 4 slice pack of ham was out of stock so they substituted the 14 pack instead for the same price.

    The only downside is the £4.50 charge.   I know someone has to pick the order, but others shops don’t charge and even deliver.  
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D
  • Other shops have higher prices so can offer free click and collect. I doubt Aldi would make any profit if they didn’t charge £4.50.
