Fucking Lidl!!!!!

[Zepherial]

Okay so this is not a life or death Aibu but, my local Lidl have opened a bakery! They have shit loads of very cheap yummy bread and cakes.

How the hell am I supposed to walk past the pastries - Aibu to think they are bastards!!!!!!

Haha. Ours did the same and now we can't get past the first aisle without DS having a complete meltdown about wanting a pink donut! Bastards!

Just open today? Then I think you may live close to me!

I'm not tempted by the pastries but they have moved everything else & it took me ages to find stuff.

I haven't dared enter our local one for fear that I will never leave again.

I can't help myself when the Apple turnovers are still warm

Ours has opened one too. I hadn't been in there for almost a year. Went in lasts week and they had a small bakery. Iced donuts 25p (too sweet though ) maple pecan plaits 39p erc all really cheap less than half the price of Gregg's just round the corner.

Oh I have never met a fellow mumsnet.....I have a terrible weakness for cakes and bread, they have fucked up my life.

Compensation companies will be ringing to save my fat arse soon.

We have had ours for ages. I find it very easy to ignore, I just look at all the chocolates and biscuits that are placed opposite.

Yes it is a small bakery, so cheap and the pretzel things are lovely. I only went in for tomatoes!

I cannot ignore the bakery, it will scream at me every time I enter the store. Now I will have to shop elsewhere, bugger.

Mine has too, I bought and ate 3 freshly baked rolls yesterday morning. I'm a pig.

they are gorgeous, I love the pretzels and the fresh rolls. Not tried any of the sweet stuff.

I love the apple turnovers. And the seeded bread. And the pumpkin seed rolls. And the doughnuts at 5 for £1. They opened a krispy cream a while ago in our town, why would I want to pay £1.99 for a single fecking doughnut when I can go to Lidl and get 5 for £1?

I love the lidl bakery and teh dark chocolate mousse bars you have to walk past to get to the bakery.

Their shit free healthy checkouts are good though. SOmetimes I tell myself that I won't buy crap and as my resolve is crumbling I hit the checkout and there is not crap to buy! So that evening I have no crap to eat and I get grumpy and dh ends up making profiteroles instead.

I didn't see the pretzels - I will return!

Ours will be opening soon .

I bought some delicious Double Gloucester with chives in it there today.

The diamond shaped cheese scones are horrible not!

Our Lidl bakery is the reason dh has become much keener on shopping lately. Every shopping trip now must includes cheese twists (for the 5 min journey home apparently) and bloody jam donuts. Bastards

Drool at cheese twists, I think they were testing it out as there was not much in. God help me! Free coffee at Waitrose then off to the bakery for breakfast.

Try the pretzels and the apple turnovers - nicest things ever

After school run I got the following bakery delights, and except for the loaf it's all bloody gone.

3 pretzels
1 cookie
I loaf
1 chocolate cupcake
1 pain au chocolate
1 doughnut
I pumpkin roll
1 small French stick

All for testing purposes of course.

Is it bad that I actually want to go back there now and see if there are any more pretzels!

cheese twist for the journey home? Amateur

I snarf one in the car park and have another for home with a cuppa

Hazel I am thinking I could eat one whilst I walk to the car and then pretend that the one I am eating at work is my first.....

It's quite processed salty stuff, I think. I mean I still eat it, but it's not great quality.

YANBU!!!

The soft pretzels and cheese & onion rolls are lush but those cheese twists are something else aren't they? I'm sure there's crack in them. I absolutely can not resist them, especially if they're still warm.

I haven't risked trying any of the sweet stuff. I don't need another vice.
