    I've used Lidl vouchers in the past when they occasionally come with my newspaper. Then I'd stock up on favourite Lidl purchases like dishwasher stuff. cornichons etc. Unfortunately now, the stock levels are so poor locally, I'd be hard pressed to spend £25.

     I suppose I could by meat and fish for the freezer as they're not 25% more expensive than Aldi. 🤔 But no vouchers here as yet. ☹️

    Sorry but that's a contradiction.  "Chocolate orange" and the phrase "very nice".  Nope.  Never. 

    Chocolate - ok.  Orange - ok.  But never ever never together.

    On the plus side - it means I won't be eating your share.

    But if anyone spots and coffee chocolates anywhere - well they're mine.

  • Mmmmmm orange chocolate. Also, mmmmmmm coffee chocolate!
    Bring back the coffee cream!
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.
  • Where did I see coffee creams..... anyway I bought a box and wished I hadn't because they were vile. A small square box with not many in it. Maybe B+M/Boyes type place...?
    I had a hen who could count her own eggs - she was a mathemachicken.
  • I am only buying one box of fave chocolates for Christmas this year, just the two of us.  Better for health, pocket and figure!

    Which is ... a box of Lindor.  The cheapest was £6 from Tescos 337g or thereabouts.

    No doubt someone going to post they have found them cheaper elsewhere!
