Their matchmaker type chocolates are really good as well.
I'm designing a gingerbread house for a competition and so far it's looking like my idea of the witches house from Hansel and Gretal. Basically shit loads of chocolate and sweeties covering it. Thank god for Aldi!

The half price pulled pork. Forget the shitty sauce they put in with it though.

Lidl Canadian ICE wine and ICE cider - now neither of these are cheap and both come in 375ml bottles - so they really REALLY aren't cheap - but I've just had my first go on the cider (around 12% if your interested) and it's what I'd call a "sippin' cider" - proceed with caution, you've been warned

The ice cider is just too damn easy to drink. Even when you treat it more as a wine than a conventional cider - one minute you've got a nicely chilled bottle and the next an empty bottle and you're looking around for the second one (that, thank god, you didn't buy . . . this time 
)

Who am I to say you're wrong
You say it's not cheap but could you give a rough estimation as to how much it is?

Comes in at £19.99 for a 375ml bottle
Ouch! - I got my prices mixed up - I thought this was "around" the £10 mark and . . . gulp . . . drank it accordingly

Thanks. A bit out of my price league!

To be honest, if I'd realised EXACTLY how expensive it was when I was drinking it I'd have probably savoured it a fair bit longer - hey, ho - no-ones died and a valuable lesson has been learned - it was very nice though, just not £10 for a wine glass measure very nice

Our Lidl's just been done up and biggified. I went for an explore today and it was very clean and very quiet but didn't seem quite as cheap as it used to. Red peppers are up to 2 quid and sugar snap peas up to 85p. Still cheaper than anywhere except Aldi and they did have ukeleles for 15 quid.

My Aldi seat cushion is disintegrating. I started out wondering what all the tiny shiny speckles on my trousers were, but now I'm starting to see substantial chunks.

If Mr Peanut says It's okay, then it is.
gentlegreen, went to lidl earlier on seen these and thought of you. A cross between sprouts and kale called flower sprouts? £1.25 per small bag. Anyone tried them?

I'm definitely going to have to look out for those
Sadly my local is Aldi, not Lidl, but when I'm home over the hostilities my leisure cycle rides will take me close to one.
Who knows I may end up growing them in retirement - sprouts are notoriously difficult to get right - they tend to "blow".
I'm gonna get some of it for Christmas day, I think. Thanks for mentioning it!

had them once when we were out, they are very nice, like little cabbages, but I imagine would need less boiling than a sprout. And awfully pretty !
