    That icecream looks interesting Rosa, report back after tasting? :)
    Don't throw sodium chloride at people. That's a salt.

    Christmas choc tubs in Tesco and Morries. I’ve forgotten the price but they were the same as each other 🙄

    First part should go to a picture dunno what happened with the codes.
  • I bought the grass fed lean diced beef from Lidl and made a steak and stilton pie.  

    Quite a few of the pieces were fatty, even though they looked lean with no fat.  I can't stand chewing fatty bits of meat so i gave my chewed bits to the dogs!  

    I suppose I will have to buy steak next time.

    DH has just opened a new box of Aldi's Harvest Morn Bran Flakes, which he's been buying for years.

    They're in a bigger box, and don't say New Recipe or anything, but he says they are horrible!!

    On checking the label, they've reduced the sugar (what little there was) and they now resemble 'chewy cardboard' (his words).   

    Which is the best email to contact Aldi about this sort of thing.   We're not bothered about a refund
    Ask him to try them with hot milk? It might make them easier to masticate and more palatable.
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.

    there's this: Customer Services Team on customer.service@aldi.co.uk
    and there's this: Contact Form Online (aldi.co.uk)
    I think your not being fussed about a refund will shock them even more than negative feedback.

    In your feedback tell them that you are considering switching to Lidl's Deluxe Nut Muesli.  It's very nice.  (warning.... contains nuts.  thought you ought to know!)

    Thats why I still shop in Lidl, because of the quality for price and my shopping basket is still cheaper there then Tesco even with some really noticeable price hikes  

    Tesco is only cheaper for some products if you sign up for a Clubcard otherwise you are most likely to pay the RRP for the items.
    Someone please tell me what money is
