Speaking of juice. The vitafit orange juice is just €1.45 for 1.25 litres. Its not from concentrate and is lovely.

Anyone tried them?

Someone please explain that mad-looking repeated Spanish-looking smilie at the end of this post. I have looked at it a few ways now, and am still flummoxed...

Do I have to learn a load of new Alt-codes or what?

No cooking oil again,they never seem to get the big bottles of it in

The chicken wings were a little bit rubbery for my liking, akin to the Big Als variants. The nuggets were OK and suit kids, but maybe not adults.

I have found the fish products to be very good, and I find their beer products excellent.

Thats because some people were abusing it (buying all the stock) as it makes a great substitute for diesel in older cars

Down our way it's local restauranteurs who were clearing the shelves of these items.

Cunning Stunt · 19-08-2014 03:59PM

sure what difference would it make to Lidl if people were buying bulk loads of it? Surely that's the same to them?

19-08-2014 04:02PM

It's still a good offer but Lidl have pushed up the price of Perlenbacher a lot over the last 2-3 years.

jeffk · 19-08-2014 04:19PM

Madness,I got a 4 or 5 of them the last time as they are hardly in and flew out.

Surely as someone says once they sell who cares who buys them for what purpose,not like people are doing anything illegal with them

True ... went from €6.49 to €6.99 to €7.29 in about a 9mth period.

In Germany the same 6 pack is €2.29

Alcohol duty and VAT (which most stuff Lidl sells doesn't have, but booze does) have been pushed up. Adds quite a bit.

Wasn't that because of the guy in Dublin who used to fill his fuel tank up on Thurs morning and leave all the empty containers in the car park

I'd guess these are loss leaders (or have very little profit). They get people in who buy another couple of items which make them a profit.

Easy to counter though. They could say only one or two bottles per customer. They might not want the hassle though.

This is available as part of the XXL range - it's not by the normal Oils.

However they are charging us Irish €7.99 for the product that's Stg4.99 (a rate of exchange of 0.624 !!)

PLUS

It's cheaper to buy 5 x single litres of the same oil -

€1.59 x 5 = €7.95 !!!!

So why pay €7.99 and the exact same item is €7.95

Cop on Lidl ! Bad enough you robbing us in Ireland with your rate of exchange but then charging us more aswell !!

Got four this morning,strange they are not advertised

If you ever changed a deep fat fryer you'll gladly pay 5C for the big bottles the oil come in
Sure all the shops rip us off in one way or another,sterling is just a clear exaample.
