LIDL plus app

no melon chunks to be found…

Couldn't find the pears so have yet another bottle of honey in the press 🤣 will all be used though

for me the poor offers on lidl plus and also the poor scratch cards have pushed me over to aldi most of the time now

Same as above. I don't do a "big shop" but would be in at least three times a week. Since they stopped doing fire stuff I never really go over the tenner excluding alcohol.

I have found Aldi to offer the best pricing of all the supermarkets, and often a little cheaper than Lidl. I suspect it's just that Lidl have been slow to drop their prices back down again, e.g. canned sweetcorn, sultanas, peanuts...

My local has stopped doing the 0.40, 1.10, 2.20 stickered food. Now 50% off sticker on date of expiry

Last 2 scratch cards have been 30% off some frozen food stuff. My partner was looking forward to his free pastry! Do they go through a week where treat is a certain thing or is there any pattern to it.

Used to have 5 or 6 that they went through sequentially for the month, since the min spend I think they been more random. Not as if they were ever worth especially going there for anyway

I got the free chocolate scratch card last week. This week I got the 30% off chef select. I thought with the 10 euro minimum spend they would either stick to free items under a euro or continue with the one euro off your next shop. Lidl plus peaked when you got an item each time you scanned

I got a free bar of chocolate tbe other day followed by a free pastry yesterday, loads of food reduced to half price so the deep freezer got a top ip

let me buy them before they go out of stock😝😝

Yes, I first noticed that in my local one on St Patrick's Day. I actually thought that the lack of 'Waste Not €1.10' etc stickers must have been due to them being short-staffed that morning. Then a day or so later I realised that they'd swapped the Waste Nots for the 50% orange stickers, and I was very disappointed!

I'd been buying almost all of my meat and poultry via 'Waste Not' - freezing quite a lot of it. I got some Waste Not fish that was okay, but one pack of cod was definitely not good, so I avoided the fish from then on.

'Waste Not' was also great for things like the packs of Chicken Tikka etc, getting them for a third of the real price. And a chicken for €1.10 was brilliant - we'd get a nice dinner that day, and the cat would get a chicken supper for 5 days - actually cheaper than the basic pet food he gets.

I was kind of hoping that Lidl might revert to the old Waste Not system.
