    The chicken breast fillets treat offer - 500g at €4.69 are actually on offer for €3.50 and still got €2 off them

    My local SuperValu seem to employ over 60’s on the checkout and that doesn’t help, nice ladies but the vouchers just confuse the feck out of everyone and it’s always a manager being called when I’m there


    Just checked my lidl app and the €2 off chicken is ready to be activated again which is handy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,573 ✭✭✭tscul32


    Got my chicken for €1.50 this morning too, although it was just priced €3.50, not flagged as an offer price or anything but same product number. Another €9.50 saved. But I was about 5 hours too early for another scratch and win. They had the little circle cut out in the perspex for me to just stick the phone in to scan. Very quick and easy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,688 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    I'll get my money back by using my spare phone to get another 5 euro discount, but I think it'll wane off a bit because of the hassle. I couldn't even find the free snack mix that I got with the scratch win and it was a hassle trying to find the miwadi orange that was nowhere with the rows of other miwadi juice bottles.

    It's a hassle even to take my phone out of its case just so I can shove it through the little COVID hole to try to scan with a tiny scanner. Lidl could do much better if they highlighted in the store where these items are. But I think, like most loyalty schemes, it'll just diminish unless they improve it.

    I couldnt find that free snack mix either and I did two laps of the shelves that has all that kind of stuff on it. However in my Lidl all the other offers were lined up on a single shelf so the Miwadi, rape seed oil, granola and cashew butter were all together as well as being in their usual places in other parts of the store. Obviously the chicken was in the fridges and the rolls in the bakery. Had meant to get the spring rolls but totally forgot about them when I was in store.

    Must say the scanner thing is a bit of a pain, apart from the tiny hole you are basically scanning the QR code blind so you cant see the red line on the screen. I was wiggling it around for a while yesterday and it wouldnt scan, staff member obviously didnt want to do it for me but did in the end cause it wasnt scanning.

    did have a look to see if posted before but missed that. Thanks Bow wow!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,688 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Yeah it was the egg shelves I was looking around and the other side of it where they had other nuts and dried fruit but it definitely wasnt there for me. It was the last day of the offer so likely had sold out of stock. No big deal as Im not a big fan of nuts, it probably would have ended up in the bird feeder in the garden.

    I checked the app upon leaving and the scratchcard was there immediately. I 'won' a hazelnut chocolate bar. Again the celebrations were wild. Was going to go back in an claim it straight away but at that stage there was a queue of 12 outside the front door so didnt bother.

    Do people think the 5 off 25 was a one off or might they do it more often?


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭decskelligs


    I have used the app three times now and still have not received a digital receipt or scratchcard. Had anyone else this problem. I have verified my email address.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,129 ✭✭✭gussieg


    checked both threads and still waiting for texts from lidl to sign up to this, and from circle k for their flip and win promotion :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,209 ✭✭✭PopTarts


    In my Lidl today, the girl at the till was promoting it to everyone.

    Got the spring rolls for a €1 and rapseed oil for 1.50 and then used my 2€ off from scratch card..staff at till ‘wow thats just 50 p..i need to start using the app’


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,209 ✭✭✭PopTarts


    I missed that €2 scratch card. Got a Hazlenut Choc Bar instead :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    I presume when they profile us properly they'll tailor the offers to suit us? The meaty stuff would be no good to me for instance.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,813 ✭✭✭One More Toy


    Sorry if this is a stupid question but do I get the 5 off 25 by

    Activating the offer in the app

    Then

    Scanning my lidl plus card

    Or how does it work? Thanks

    Yes activate the vouchers you want. Then scan your phone at the till.

    All staff were asking everyone Thursday when I was in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,383 ✭✭✭peckerhead


    The big flaw that will kick them back is that it's very easy to get confused about the items being purchased thinking you'll get the discounts. several people bought the wrong cookies already in this thread, and today I bought the wrong ham despite trying carefully to pick the right one.
    I used mine for the first time today, and had activated the €2 off a 500g pack of chicken fillets.

    But the only packs of chicken fillets to be found were 260g, 610g and 1kg. :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,918 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Don't activate the €5 off until you are going shopping. I did mine right away and now it's gone.

    Google Pay does it if you store passes in it, and some boarding pass apps do it as well.

    Weird that the cookies didn't work on mine then.

    When you set up the app first did you choose not to accept cookies?
    That might be your problem ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,028 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Does your home store matter for using coupons?

    As in I've one Lidl specified as my home store, but would there be an issue using it in other Lidl's?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 686 ✭✭✭0xzmro3n4y7lb5


    I actually thought it was very clear. If you go into the voucher it specifies the label price and the weight of the item. So for example it was clear the chicken fillets were €4.69 full price it then displayed the €2.69 price and then it said the weight was 460g. I got the last packet.

    These babies I assume or is it non breaded only?

    My €5 off didn't work yesterday. Guy tried a few times. I wondered if it was because it was a different location to the one I'd put on the app but he said it shouldn't matter. It'll be out of date by the time I go again :-(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 880 ✭✭✭Arbie


    Location does not matter. My registered store is Dublin but I sent my code to someone in another county and she used it no problem. Although I now have her receipt on my app!

    Good to know.

    In my local lidl, they had the chicken for €3.50 plus another 30% off because they all expired the next day.

    I didn't chance them as I wouldn't bother with short-dated chicken but it makes me wonder if it would have reduced them down to 45 cents.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭BigAl81


    Thanks for the tip. I saved 8.Euro 20 cent on a weekly shop and got a free bar of chocolate too!!

    Thanks - good to know now.. I changed stores earlier just in case.

    Saved almost a tenner.. got everything except toothpaste, peanut butter, MiWadi and crusty rolls. Does certainly make you buy stuff you wouldn't normally. Always buy Olive Oil so Rapeseed Oil is a first.

    Anyone know what the QR code scanner is under your Treats/Coupons?

    No it's proper chicken fillets, i think it's 3 pack 460g should be €4.69 before discount


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,777 ✭✭✭BowWow


    Used app today for first time, Portmarnock, no problems, really easy to use, €10+ saved.
    Chocolate bar for free on next visit.


    Interestingly the app has over 10 Million downloads, so must be usable in any European store?


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,124 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    I’ve used it in three different stores for those asking, you don’t need to change home store.

  • Registered Users Posts: 20,300 ✭✭✭✭casio4


    I got the first scratch card at sign up activated the nut box thing but never got it as I couldn't find it in store, it's over 72 hours now since I shopped and didn't get another scratch card


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,200 ✭✭✭lucalux


    Most Lidls I've ever been in have those Seed/Nut snack pots on the shelves along the tills

    They are different to the ones on the app, different product code and the man on the till said they are beside the eggs and he was spot on

    Has anyone got a screenshot of the voucher for them I wonder?

    I used mine, and the offer/treat was activated on it no issue. In store price of 99c got for free with the scratch card offer activated..

    Strange though that it says on my receipt at the end, in-store price of 56c, I don't remember what was on the voucher before I used it. I checked it with guy on till and he said yep they're the ones!

    OmegaGene wrote: »
    The scratch card price was 69 cent I think but the product code matched the ones for 99cent

    Ah ok, no product codes on the receipts, I just know mine went through no bother so I didn't give it a second thought, I got it for free and that's all that matters :)

    Saved a tenner on a thirty euro shop using the app so I'm happy out with it so far. Having the receipts is a great feature.

    How does this work for self service? Do I hit 'coupon' then scan my card?

    You need to shop again before you get another one. You get one with every shop (per 72 hours).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,028 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Got me a chocolate bar on Scratch & Win today... huzzah!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,373 ✭✭✭Skuxx


    I've tried signing up twice now but I'm yet to receive any text message with a code! :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,688 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Was wondering if you use the app and then pay by card is your card then linked for future purchases so they can gather data and build profiles of their customer base? I didnt read the T&Cs, maybe someone did.

    No they can do all that without your card.
