    Yes, our Lidl do this regularly, they reduce the price and then if it doesn't sell they will sit a big box at the checkout and tell you to help yourself! I like to pick up their brown rolls as they make a really nice light breadcrumb :).

    I've never seen any reduced food in Lidl - I'm in Surrey. Do they reduce food in all their Lidl's and if so, is it usually on a Monday morning or is it other times as well?Appreciate any replies.

    Lidl in our area reduce items by 30%, used to be 50%. I have seen the reduced items everyday, just depends when they are going out of date. Usually first thing in the morning is a good time to check.
