Yeh at least we know why the app wasn’t working properly last week, they were “updating” 🙈 surprised they made such move just before Christmas, maybe they have too many customers 😆

Parkrun code not working at all for me for some reason.

fletch · 01-12-2022 09:20AM

Same for me on 2 phones

~~"Sorry this code doesn't seem to be active, please review the dates it is available."~~

~~^Getting this message when I enter Parkrun code this morning. I wonder have they also started fiddling with this aspect of the app?~~

Edit. Parkrun code working since 9 am.

The treats in the plus app are getting less appealing by the week too. Mostly featuring items that are a bit niche, or so close to/dearer than "big name" similar items that you wouldn't try the unknown. Unlikely to travel across town for 32% off a single grapefruit.

Anyone here win a winter winners voucher, with a bit of luck someone here will get one, nice bump before Christmas if they do.

in 2 weeks Lidl will have enough data to confirm that a chunk of customers will travel to the shop more than once a week only if there's something for free at the end of the line - doesn't matter if it's chocolate or happy bears !

unfortunately even discounters are starting to charge fruits per piece instead of per Kg or punnet/pack ( this is an old trick of Du**es and Supervaluable to get their prices in cents, under €1 )

Only if we actually change our behaviour. Lidl also are going from 30% to 20% off in the "salmonella corner" as some people affectionately call it.

Change your behaviour, or we'll be stuck with bad deals.

Yes, I noticed that earlier, I took an item with a blank orange sticker to see if I'd get the 30% but cashier marked it as 20%.

I'll probably still shop in Lidl for convenience but won't use my app as no point now. No interest in Chocolate Santas that will be less than half price anyway come December 27th anyway.

I'd say Parkrun codes also on way out. The current code has 39 in it so maybe it might get to 52 and then they'll call it quits.

Father Frisky · 01-12-2022 04:24PM

Parkrun code nit showing in my treats, this happen anyone else

Father Frisky · 01-12-2022 04:25PM

Code works but treat doesn't appear

OmegaGene · 01-12-2022 04:47PM

code for parkrun would only work after 9am and i got my easy peelers worth €1.85 and they are huge too so happy days

Well for me it states i already used the code 🙈

Cookiee · 01-12-2022 05:15PM

I put my parkrun code in around 1pm and it worked fine, however my partner put it in around 8am, and there's nothing on his vouchers list, and if he tried redeem again says he already has it when he didn't, no where on the list on vouchers even when scrolling down. I wonder will it end up appearing..

Nollog · 01-12-2022 05:37PM

Lidl WhatsApp must be flat out, I contacted them around 12 today and they said they're aware of the parkrun issue and would give me a euro off for the trouble, after 2 hours of very sporadic replies...

They also said the park run qpon would appear at some later date.

Buffman · 01-12-2022 06:03PM

Interesting timing with all the increases from Lidl, you'd have thought they'd be trying to hold onto customers for Christmas rather than squeezing them for more and pushing them to competitors. The loss of the freebies means I won't be going out of my way to them, Aldi and Tesco will probably be getting our Christmas business.

All the app has done lately is point out to me even more how much and quickly prices are going up, as I started to notice a lot of the time the actual price displayed on the 'discounted' item had gone up compared to the price on the app voucher which was only released a very short time beforehand.

The move from 30% to 20% reduction on short dated items is pretty stingy, on stuff that's 1 day away from having to be binned by them anyway.

Thanks for the bargains and freebies Lidl, it was nice while it lasted.

the short dated products do get reduced further up to 80% off, the first sticker is only the first stage of the reduction

i got salmon and cod for 90cent a pack last week

Ye, be interesting to see if they also raise the true "salmonella corner" prices.🤣😂 Never seemed to be much in it in any of my stores, but might be more now that it's gone to 20% on the orange.

thesandeman · 01-12-2022 06:59PM

The 20% thing is strange. Especially as Aldi have gone the opposite way offering 50% off.

It’s all about timing, 8pm in my local Lidl is the big price reduction and 7:30 for Tesco, people are hovering around in Tesco from 6:30 normally waiting for the person with the stickers and then the pushing and shoving starts
