I’m guessing this is new because I always get my brown sugar for coffee from Lidl today at the side of it was a big bottle of egg whites never seen it in there before.2

On doing a small shop in Lidl I spotted the Gelatelli sorbets and decided to try a couple. Not keen on the Raspberry but I do like the Mango version.
Did 'Spin the Wheel' and got a £10 off voucher!Fashion on the Ration 2025 58/663 -
Thanks - you reminded me to Spin the Wheel following a visit to Lidl today.
I won a £10 voucher.

@Cornucopia yay! It was a lovely surprise.
I won't be close to a Lidl until Monday, but I shall sit down on Sunday and plan out what fruit & veg I need for the coming week plus I need to top up on granulated sugar / yeast. Might sneak in one of the dark chocolate bars...Fashion on the Ration 2025 58/661 -
Next week is French Week at Lidl. Lots of cheeses and walnuts from Grenoble1

I had a failed Lidl voucher for Proviact Bio Yogurt. I'm pretty sure I've had problems with the product before that a member of staff sorted out manually.1

To continue the theme, Lidl's Polish Cold Meat slices (various weights, several varieties) are very good value - high meat content, and currently on offer in some stores at £1.25.

Agreed @Cornucopia. There's quite a few meats in that range and ime they're all pretty good.Honi swanky malyponze. Or something.1

Has anyone else's Aldi moved spirits to the front of the store opposite the tills? Our range has somewhat shrunk and it's on the end that used to be promotional goods. Maybe it is due to shop lifting?1
-
Rob do you mean all the spirits or just a few?
My Aldis have a few christmas bottles on an end facing the tills, but that's so people maybe pick up a bottle while they're queueing (I think). The bulk of it is still at the back. I'll see when I go shopping later.Honi swanky malyponze. Or something.2
