(Come to think of it, perhaps the hairdryer could do the job of the salad spinner and save even more money!) What you have to think, darlink, is that a lot of Lidl food is foreign, so you are really buying delicatessen food. Keep saying that to yourself and you will slink no more, but walk head-high among the mangoes and mozarella, bratwurst and baklavas!ADDYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01018958238940897902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6353175620385707812.post-80559835068590949352008-07-04T12:12:00.000-07:002008-07-04T12:12:00.000-07:00DD - OK, deep breath, my name's VLiF and I shop at...DD - OK, deep breath, my name's VLiF and I shop at Lidl. Phew, that's better. I discovered it a while back (the CH will not even step through the door) and have shaved enough off my food bill to have a guilt free shop in the Boden summer sale. I bought a 4-bar steam cleaner there this week and only a few weeks ago a pressure washer. Oh joy! I've even signed up to their e-mail alerts so that every week they send me details of that following week's offers. Is there any hope or am I an addict?

Quite by chance too when I forgot to get my nephew an Easter egg and was scratching about looking for an open shop at the final hurdle and it was Aldi to the rescue with all sorts of fine bargains ....<BR/>I'm not a fan of the mango though .

I hover between Tesco and Waitrose but crept into Lidl last Sunday. Must have been a bad time - if you can read German or like a lot of tinned veg you would be OK. Slunk out. Our neighbours shop there a lot so think I will join them when the shop is better stocked.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596425511240774220noreply@blogger.com
