Don’t even talk to me about toffee yum-yums 😭 WHY ARE THEY SO GOOD? I live 5 mins from Lidl and I’m not kidding I went twice in one day just to buy yum-yums. 😫 The amount of self restraint I’ve had to muster, I swear…the sugar addiction was getting out of hand.

You're on a very slippery slope and I'm not being dramatic!

The banoffee hot cross buns in Aldi taste amazing cut in half, toasted and topped with Nutella and chopped banana. Happy Easter 😋

I got some kimchi sriracha from Lidl earlier - no idea what it's going to be like but guess it might be nice with udon noodles, vegetables and tofu/prawns!

Our local Lidl says on their website that they take plugs/leads so I tried that today. Bloke did look a little confused but took them.

I didn't realise you were discarding them. I just thought you were taking them in...for what...? 😂 Handy to know. I've got a box full of cables.

The bloke in the store looked at me at first like I'd just decided to randomly wave it at him!

It's Iberian week now, I went in earlier for a pint of milk but picked up a yogurt with seville orange (very nice) and they had some tempting looking prawn snacks in frozen

I got my daughter the fake tan last time it was in the special buys at Aldi. She’s naturally very pale so likes to self tan. She has used a lot of different products but says the Aldi one is her favourite. It goes on really well, lasts ages and doesn’t go patchy just fades away according to her.

Oh yay thank you. They usually do a pack of 3 Spanish cheeses that I'm obsessed with. Will make a special trip.

These are so good !! These are Lidl, Aldi also do a version but they are much milder. This is the first thing I’ve eaten today (healthy!) so I’m convincing myself that 480 cals for the whole pack is perfectly fine !!

Anybody tried the Crab Cakes that won the Aldi programme the other night ? I didn't watch the programme until yesterday and just saw them in the shop when I went in on the Thursday and bought a pack - £2.29 for 2 cakes.
Can't say I was impressed, tasty fishy but would not have known they were crab without reading it on the pack. There was also too much chilli in them, whilst I like chilli too much for a fishcake. Will stick to the regular ones.

Sounded like they had to take a lot of crab out and replace it with potato to make it cheap enough for Aldi.

I have a confession - I'm addicted to crisp celery crudités dipped in Aldis houmous 😲😋
This from someone who hates chickpeas and was a renowned chocaholic previously (hence my moniker).
I'm too old to be pregnant so who knows🤷
