    Lidl & Aldi are great if you dont have a 9-5 job or suchlike. All the 'bargains' are well gone by the time we ever get down there in an evening or at weekends.

    Still always manage to pick up a few other bits though.

    You have to be queueing at the door at 07.55 for the real bargains :D

    I love a good supermarket fight as much as the next person (working Christmas Eve in M&S was a highlight) but I'd pay triple the price rather than queue in Lidl or Aldi for a special offer!

    I'd say more like 7.30 if it's a popular item! They have tellies in Lidls this Friday for Black Friday & we were talking about trying to get one but I said to Mr. CL "you'll have to be standing outside at 7.30 at the latest" so I think he decided against it now.

    You're probably right for the tellys! My bus stop is near a Lidl and I just remember last year for their 12 days of Christmas deals or whatever they were calling them, there were queues before they opened every morning for the deals - we're mostly talking boxes of Tayto or biscuits or something though.

    Us Irish people love what we perceive as a great deal. Feels like we are 'getting one over' other people!!!

    Is it that crazy? Oh my goodness.

    When I was newly in my house, I often had occasion to find myself in Lidl at 8am on the way to work if there was something I really wanted. It's amazing to see the mix of people in there - people on their way to work much like myself, trades-type people in for their power tools/diy bits and the people in trying to do the family shop.

    Aldi is a bit of a pain though as they only open at 9, so it's not so easy to get there when working!!

    It’s just the original Baileys.

    Well the bottles are originally on the picture.
    I think the hot chocolate is only a serving suggestion.

    However in previous years Tesco had the 5 for €5.( I don't know will it happen this year).

    Some nice sets of balls in Penneys for €5 down from €10.

    Anyone looking for stocking fillers. Lidl have boxes of their own version of Lego reduced to €3.49 a box. Identical to the real thing,I was going to buy a couple when they were reduced to a fiver so was pleasantly surprised to see they reduced them again. The boxes with the same amount of blocks are €29.99 in Argos.Lidl have a load of sets reduced too.
