Generally just inside the front door!

Most shops seem to have moved the specials further in store, the crisps were mid way on the 3rd aisle in two shops we visited (not for crisps btw).

The 2 I visited had them in 1 upstairs, outside their front doors by security and in the other, just inside the door beside the Veg on offer.

None of ours have stairs!

People seriously queue to save a €3/4 on a tin of biscuits that they are probably only buying cause there cheap��then take in to account probably driving in for this specific item hardly money saved at all

Yeah, 1 of the stores I use is not in an industrial estate, it's in the middle of a street which has large footfall.
There's a lot of "New Irish" that often queue with friends and family members early to get in at 8am for these offers.
When we had the dirty water issue a while back, a member of staff told me 8.30am was the latest to come looking for stock, there were queue's from 7.30 for water.
They could also sell tomorrows stuff on for profit on a stall.
Myself and herself will drop in tomorrow at 8am as we are passing, and get 4 for presents.

FFS! I haven't seen Afternoon Tea on special anywhere this year, so i bought USA Assorted ("normally €9.99"- right) at €8 in Tesco, and 3 more today in ALDI for €5.99, and now the ones I really wanted turn up at €4.99! Sadly it's 30 minutes drive in any direction (literally - NSEW) to a LIDL so I'll stay in the scratcher tomorrow I think.

LIDL really making the running this year - Dunnes very quiet on offers, and TESCO and ALDI offers are pretty tame. Even the BOGOF Prosecco - I think it's the same one that's only £4.99 in UK anyway.

Saturday 21st is Prosecco case deal 6 bottles for the price of 4 €7.99, 1 case per transaction.

Have these offers been available? Like would you get them biscuits at 10am today?

"New Irish"? Is that code for something else? Can you only look for "bargains" if you're old Irish?!

All the biscuits were gone in the lidl beside me by 8.20 this morning.

Same.

People queuing outside apparently

I’ve been going in every day after I drop off the kids at 9.30. This morning was the first time one of the deals had sold out before I got there - the chocolate Kimberley tins. There were still about 20 tins of the biscuits left though.

I'd say my local would have been out of them all before 9am. I was there at 8:30 and everyone had two Kimberly's and many also had two afternoon tea, at least half the stand was gone by the time I got there. They were enforcing the 2 limit thought, a lady in front of me had four Kimberly and was told the other two would be full price if she wanted them. So she decided to hold up the entire queue to go to the back of the shop to get two afternoon tea.

I tried to get two of each but I was told on the till I could only have two total.
