    If you have Lidl Plus and app was updated, please delete app and resign in before you go to the tills. As a customer in front of me had to do this.

    I checked for the L+ coupons before leaving and had to delete app and resign in as app kept on closing 
    The app has changed today with a new 'spin to win' thing added, I have not looked at all the t&c's yet but it seems to have replaced the scratchcard.

    Anyone used the "spin to win" yet?

    I wonder if the app is getting a bit too busy?   I got a £2 voucher last month, and hadn't even noticed.
  • Tried the LIDL fantastic fish ice cream last night for the first time.  OH MY WORD.
    Lidl might be good for my purse, but my waistline, not so much....lol

    Just used it. I got a 30% off washing liquid. I preferred the money-off vouchers but there it is.

    Good news about the availability of porridge in Aldi, hope it's true  of my store when I go there tomorrow. Personally I preferred the old  paper packaging but I can live with the plastic if I have to.  Interestingly about packaging in general, apparently all the online shopping since lockdown has created a shortage of cardboard.

    I blame Amazon! 🤣

    Finally managed to get some pomegranate & ginger luxury handwash from Aldi at 99p.
    I got the orange and bergamot before Christmas.
    Was recommended up thread as a copy of Molton Brown.
    So thanks to whoever that was. :)

    Oh - and am trying the gel facial wash for the first time.

    Is that in the same range with the numbers (e.g. No. 1) as the lime, basil and mandarin? I love the candles. I'd say they were Jo Malone copies.

    No, different range. The diffusers and candles (and EDT and hand/body lotion) are Jo Malone copies.
    This is the kosher hand wash, Aldi is in a same shape plastic bottle with plastic top, Aldi 99p, Molton Brown £20.00:
    I've just bought my sister a blackberry and bay diffuser (No 2), I usually get the LBM for her but my friend says this smells lovely.

    I've found the reference, it wasn't on this thread.
    It was on a thread called "F & F Fragrance".
    Discussed from the 4th post down.
    So - thanks to Katiehound for the recommendation.
