Aldi or lidl?

[Flopisfatteningbingforchristmas]

I’m moving back to budget food shopping. I just to ho to Aldi but a Lidl has opened up. Which do you prefer?

Lidl but there are certain things I prefer in Aldi. I like the Lidl special weeks, especially the Greek week. Lidl bakery is better.

I've never shopped at Aldi but I've recently swapped out Tesco for Lidl as you can't go wrong with their £1.50 fruit and veg boxes.

Lidl because their app gets you £12 off a month if you spend £200

I think they can all be hit and miss, we have one Aldi near us everyone avoids its always a mess and only ever seems to have very nearly out of date fruit and veg. We have another Aldi that is brilliant. Our small Lidl you would struggle to get a weekly shop done there, the big Lidl is great. I would just try both and see which one of your local shops you prefer.

Aldi for suncream and face cream. Lidl for everything else.

The only one particularly near to us is an Aldi, so I mostly go there. I buy non-perishable stuff there mostly because I find their "fresh" fruit and vegetables very hit or miss. I love the Moser Roth chocolate. I also buy soap, shampoo, laundry detergent etc

Lidl is about 10 miles away. If we are out in that direction I like to call in there. It has an in-store bakery which I like. Aldi doesn't have those.

Lidl. Free bakery item when the app.

The Greek leek and cheese swirls.

I have an Aldi closer than a Lidl so use it more, but go to Lidl now and then. In ours I find the Aldi vegetables of better quality than Lidl, but the veg in Lidl where we have use of my mother's cottage are generally great.

Lidl if I had to choose one, but both are great.

I like Aldi.

I never have a problem with their fruit and veg going off, tbh. I’ve just finished some strawberries that I bought 2 weeks ago and they were absolutely fine still.

I dont have a lidl near me but I like aldi. I find it much cheaper than asda tesco etc.

Shop at both, but tend to do, 'big shop,' at Lidl.

Plus they do Padron Peppers which is great during BBQ season.

Just switched to Lidl as although our Aldi started click and collect which was great - the Lidl app saves £12 a month as pp said.

Lidl also does the BEST luxury coleslaw, hash browns and fancy steak cut chips.

I get fruit and veg fron Lidl as it lasts longer but I hate the actual shop our local one is a total mess and filthy, they building a new one so hope it improves as I would like to shop there more.

Aldi for most other things.

Our Aldi is less than a year old and clean, spacious and well stocked generally. There’s a Lidl that’s a couple of years old, but doesn’t feel all that clean. So Aldi is where we go.

Lidl for their bakery especially the low GI cob which is delicious.

But I find Aldi has better choice (although Lidl has more brands)

Like someone else has said, Lidl's stores are manky, Aldi's really clean and less cluttered.

I like both, Lidl is closer so we tend to go there but I do prefer Aldi, especially the bigger ones. Lidl has stock shortages and empty shelves at the moment whilst Aldi has a lot more choice. I haven't shopped at the big 4 for about 10 years other than the odd speciality item needed.

Neither for me. They both feel like shopping in a jumble sale.

Aldi , at least all their baked goods are wrapped
I shall just leave that there …

I prefer aldi but Lidl by me is less busy and wider aisles so a bit more relaxing walking round.

How does this work, please?

I have just downloaded the app but I don't see this anywhere.

I spent £90 in Lidl yesterday and have the receipt, am I able to retrospectively add this somehow?

Lidl bakery is good, and the app is great with the rewards, but overall I prefer Aldi.

Aldi for me - just prefer the selection there, & like knowing what's coming up on the Special Buys.

i only like briache rolls and Briache slice loaf (French bread) in Aldi
