Literally penny pinching - need prices from Lidl

apologies in advance if you have read this post lol
I tried to get to Lidl today but the bus decided not to run. 😏And the arseholes are going on strike too I believe. Wonderful.

I pay for a Tesco delivery subscription as I don't drive but I'm actually down to pennies these days.
Can anyone tell me the price of the following three items from Lidl (I don't have Aldi near so I don't need those prices).
Iceberg lettuce
Cucumber
Stewing beef (lean diced beef) - I've 600g in basket (£10.50/kilo)

I used to know the price of everything but my memory is shot and now everything is jumping extortionately and I know that the next thing to go will be my will to live lol.
The tesco delivery is tomorrow so I only have 2 hours to decide before it's locked in and when it's pennies for heating for the winter or a penny here or there to a company, I no longer have the luxury.
Jesus Christ, but this is awful.

You really really can give up! It seems like they're everything at the moment but there are so many other lovely things that they could be replaced with. You must give up - it's making your life unaffordable and you will likely hugely suffer in the future.

When will people realise that smoking is an addiction, and such a hard thing to give up! I gave up about 10 years ago and it's the hardest thing I've ever done! It took me so many failed attempts to finally get there. When I was a smoker I would rather have starved than run out of fags!

Exactly. Came on here to say the same. I'm a non-smoker myself but I've seen my mum struggle with a smoking addiction for years. It isn't the same as deciding not to have a bar of chocolate.

Try and make better choices

To answer your op, I checked my Lidl receipts:
lean diced steak 700g 4.99 May
cucumber 59p August
iceberg lettuce 55p August

WRT tobacco, have you ever considered vaping? It's a damn sight cheaper, healthier and it really does get people off the cigs.
