I don't go to Lidl, but from Aldi, we buy: * milk * bread (normal loaf) * flat stotties - probably 'barm cakes' to you * broiche - chocolate and vanilla both yummy * sweet waffles * tinned tomatoes * bags of pasta/rice * coleslaw * bagged salad * cucumber * baby plum tomatoes * bananas * dish washer tablets * washing tablets * most household cleaning products * nappies and wipes * juice cartons for lunch boxes * cereal - especially bran flakes * not from concentrate orange juice * little beers * pretend Pimms and Baileys
cookies - cheap pnes and more chunky ones pretends oreos and a biscuit called #madonnas' little pots of fruit for packed lunches flapjack for lunches yoghurt parmesan and mozzarella pretend philedelphia cheese
lidl. we buy everything bar fresh meat (chicken, joints etc..farm shop for those) particulalry yummy are parmesan, chunky oven chips, yoghurts, salmon, cooked meats salami, ham cheese coleslaw is to die for. the wines are great too..
You can get some amazing bargains, I often stock up for little stocking fillers, also Lidl had a cycling event recently and I bought loads of stuff for the bike
Aldi rocks! There's a Lidl being built on my route to work, so I shall be able to check it out soon.
I try to alternate shopping trips between Aldi (Cheap, and DH loves their Maple Pecan crunchy cereal)and Asda for the things Aldi doesn't stock (vege sausages).
Pain au chocolat, dishwasher tablets (much better than leading brands and all the glasses come out looking like glass instead of pebbledash), feta in olive oil and herbs, apples, olive oil. Loads of stuff. Aldi that is. Lidl is a bit further off.
Aldi do a gorgeous fromage frais with a fruit bottom. It used to be 19p. I went in yesterday and it was 27p.
I don't live near to an Aldi so I tend to use it occasionally (if passing by) for non-perishables but a friend says their fruit and veg has great shelf-life.
meatballs (mini frikkedellens, i think!) frozen duck and pancakes all the fruit, veg and salad frozen chocolate cheesecake treacle tart jams and peanut butter
they have a yummy brioche (spelling???) thing thats in a round foil tin. raspberry jam. caramel shortbread. i also quite like the packets of dried pasta in sauce, especially the mushroom one.
Lidl - chocolate! I find their chocolate is much better quality than even Waitrose which is where we tend to shop for food. Also their frankfurter sausages, dried pasta, rice, noodles, pizzas, cheese and fruit. Dishwasher tablets. Stocking fillers and any treats or sweeties for kiddies!
Love the chirotzo (sp) sausage - so cheap compared to anywhere else ! Fruit & veg is normally really good quality. Hubby like the tins of chilli (I'd rather eat snot - but well )
I get the weekly newsletter via email so I can the weekly specials - you just sign up on the Aldi web page
You can register online at Aldi and they e-mail you in advance to let you know what their bi-weekly specials are. Yes, I know I'm a saddo.
The moisturisers are ace, the day one is less than £2. Dishwasher tablets are cheap but great Deli stuff great, especially the stuffed feta olives and the extremely cheap Brie. Even the baked beans are delicious.
I heart Aldi. They even pay their staff way over the standard hourly rate which I thorougly approve of.
I haven't read this thread - I will in a minute - but I just have to barge in and say how much I bloody love Aldi. I'm a fully paid up food ponce - I shop in two shops - Aldi and Waitrose and I shop in Aldi for quality more than price. you have to pick your products but some things I wouldn't buy anywhere else. Their rocket tastes like the rocket you grow in your garden, not soap. I bought a pack of about 40 frozen langoustines - scottish sensibly sourced ones - for 8 quid in there the other day - God only knows what that would have cost elsewhere.
If you dont read anything else I've written buy their mozzerlla - it beats everthing but artisan buffalo stuff (including cheap buffalo stuff) hands down.
100% apple juice, pear juice and grape juice tins tuna basic bread (to keep in freezer for when we run out) fruit loaf tinned tomatoes cartons passata pasta rice couscous organic bananas tomatoes organic mushrooms butternut squash various other fruit and veg milk sultanas frozen prawns bags frozen fish to make fish pie nappies wipes wine free range eggs smoked salmon yoghurts cheese chocolate
Got ds a digital camera from Aldi, £39.99 and it's brilliant, has a better memory on it than ours which cost £150 and is tough therefore ideal for ds! They do a version of cheerios which ds says taste the same but cost £1.19!!
Snacks - cashews, crisps Jive are definitely Twix we can't tell the difference Face Cream Fruit and veg for just 59p - have registered for their newsletter www.aldi.co.uk and had a go at www.saveamillionwithaldi.co.uk Tissues - cube boxes are so cheap pizza - especially pepperoni croissant salami
) and very big. Brilliant.
