    That’s some sense of entitlement you have, it wasn’t that long ago that you were registering fake accounts on here to try and scam circle k codes of other generous users.


    Anyways I’d say the Lidl staff are having a right laugh at changing codes and watching you get your knickers in a twist as they are shared.

    PARKRUN930

    Don't bother try to redeem today, it will say invalid as code is only activated from tomorrow, seems like they changed it around

    Code can be activated from tomorrow in the app and last day to redeem is Wednesday

    This was in the email too asking people not to share the codes outside of parkrun

    Very strange changes to the parkrun redemption terms... Maybe Lidl didn't anticipate the level of interest and are trying to reduce the number of freebies given out by letting stocks run out for a few days...

    Exactly, when Lidl and Parkrun originally negotiated the deal, they would have had a rough idea of costs based on the number of Parkrun members. Now that they're probably giving away a lot more than that estimate, costs are probably way up and based on their last email I'd say it'll probably eventually get pulled.

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles to avoid the DRS fee.

    last code…doubt it will happen next week based on changes and abuse



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,086 ✭✭✭mikeecho


    I noticed that on their latest email, they are asking for the code not to be shared.

    I presume they will change things soon enough, so that only actual participants are given the code at the run.

    It's been great getting free stuff, but it is too good to be true.



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,200 ✭✭✭PopTarts


    A unique code to those signed up would reduce some numbers or to have it as a qr code for those who attend the runs.



  • Registered Users Posts: 19,619 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    only predicted this afternoon that the Parkrun codes getting shared on that Facebook group could be the end of it and its looking like thats what will happen now if they are telling people not to share it. With 200,000 in the Facebook group it must be obvious in Lidl HQ that its being used much wider than the actual Parkrunners

    It'll be a shame if it happens as the Parkrun treats were always much better than the ones on the scratchcards, like where else would you get things like organic blueberriers and caesar salads for free

    That's just a fb page.. how many of those ppl are then giving the codes to friends and family + the number of ppl who are actually registered for park run, and I presume they also share with friend and family.

    No wonder stuff is often missing from the shelf.

    ... But having said that .. it's a lot of extra people going into lidl that otherwise wouldn't.


    Time will tell.. three weeks will tell a lot.

    Code working now. €5 of €30 and free apples, other that that offers are as usual weak and can’t see myself making spending ages scanning aisles to save €0.20 on something I don’t want or need and is probably out of stock anyway

    Are you denying the fact you got banned from the circle k thread for breaking the rules and then reregistered as a new poster and started asking for codes?


    in the prison forum you were found out and then you claimed someone in your house registered the new account before you cried like a baby and admitted it was you and asked for forgiveness



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,200 ✭✭✭PopTarts


    Snacking Tray or Hazlenut Chocolate on first scratch card

    This is crazy, some woman even offering parkrun codes on adverts

    https://www.adverts.ie/28103189



  • Registered Users Posts: 842 ✭✭✭GAAcailin


    Nuts, I see she is offering H & M clothes vouchers too.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,589 ✭✭✭amber2


    Next week



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭JabbaTheHut


    Well, someone just scuppered her by posting the code in her own thread. Now it's marked as sold.



  • Registered Users Posts: 842 ✭✭✭GAAcailin


    Say she is just trying to get her ratings up. Nuts…



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,669 ✭✭✭Red Silurian


    We can blame the Facebook page all we want but we are doing the exact same thing here and are open to anybody with a web browser, not just those with a facebook account. And personally I see no issue with it

    Don’t think people on here have an issue otherwise no one would post a bargain, just posting as a word of warning to get in there fast as the more that the code is being used the more likely it will be flagged to HO and the likely hood of it being pulled

    ha ha does anyone remember the circle k bandit 🤣 they’d take all the links. Fecking they must be dead now from a heart attack. Loved that circle k game, my car was spotless! Not so much now.



  • Registered Users Posts: 658 ✭✭✭MIRMIR82


    Those are very poor ''savings'' in my opinion...They have gotten poorer as the weeks have gone on.



  • Registered Users Posts: 43 GipsyMoth


    I have to agree and I’ve noticed they charge more on items than is advertised on the shelf it’s only 5-10c sometimes 50c but I’ve been stung many times now. I know prices fluctuate but they rarely update it

    ive been going to Dunnes more often now the lure of the free junk food item is starting to wear off now



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,803 ✭✭✭Patsy167


    I've noticed in my local Lidl that the app is a massive hit with the kids coming in from school and might explain the shortages on the treats in recent weeks for some stores.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,683 ✭✭✭uli84


    As for Parkrun i’d love to join but nothing in my vicinity, typical :(



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Buffman


    I wonder will they look at just using the Parkrun barcode? (For those not in Parkrun, you're given a wrist band with your unique barcode on it that you scan at each event so your times can be tracked)

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

  • Registered Users Posts: 601 ✭✭✭Escapees


    Too much hassle I'd say as the database of unique runner barcodes would have to be managed etc. They'll just decide to stop the promotion probably. Which is fair enough really...
