    When my missis goes to Lidl she’s got a screen shot of my QR code and scans that it works ok.
    how did she get the QR code?  Granted it sounds a bit techy for my OH.

    Ah the dark alchemy of "wave that photo at the machine!" - all fine So Long As It Works. Grumphs & grouches for Weeks when it doesn't (from Son, supposed to be surfing the wave of all this hip new tech).

    I've had a couple of Aldi "premium" sandwiches recently.   

    Two in particular - Deli Meat and Mozzarella (with basil leaves & pesto) served on herb bread; and Brie and Bacon with Chilli Jam.   These are both excellent, and the Brie and Bacon was better than a previous one I'd had from Sainsburys.   £2.19 each.

    Does anyone know if two people can have the same Lidl account app on their separate mobiles?

    Yes, I have two mobiles and same account on each, there is no difference between either of them. All I did was download the app and log in.
    Also if a person has a Galaxy phone (don't know about others) you can have two Lidl accounts on same phone if using secure folder.

    Nope.  No need and no space for gadgets.  I'd have to get rid of my microwave or toaster or coffee maker.  All essentials to me!

    I went to Aldi yesterday to buy their pack of bar soaps, none on the shelf. Asked a store assistant who said that as there was no SEL that usually indicates they are no longer stocking the item !
    Went to Lidl and bought some there......but for how long !!!

    I am fascinated to understand the characteristics of who might buy such a thing (as opposed to those who would actually use it regularly) - because it is instant cash in the bank for Lidl and will be a magnet for dust in 90% of households.

    Slightly off topic but I donated a well-used (but still fit for purpose) microwave via Olio thinking it would go to someone in actual need. I got feedback from the "grateful" recipient listing its "faults" - including non-existent dents -  which told me he was looking to sell it rather than use it. So hang onto your stuff whilst its still works. I have another microwave bought c2001 that still works perfectly, although is not the most modern looking article. I have put this out of sight in the utility room and it still gets used several times a day.
