Was influenced by everyone here, so went to look for frickles in my local Aldi. There wasn’t any in :( the label for it is there though !

Just got lots of goodies from Aldi including dark choc covered orange slices, caramelised nuts and blonde choc marshmallow brownie bites. They were all in the middle aisle. Taste tested all of it as soon as I got home, all of them are really nice except the brownie bite which don’t really taste of anything.

I also got the hazelnut cream and it’s like crack, I honestly could eat the whole jar in one go. Im not buying it again it’s sooo good and im trying to watch my weight 😂

looked for the mac and cheese but couldn’t see it. Stocked up on pasta sauces and curry spice pots as well as the usual meat/veg etc.
The brownie bites are getting terrible reviews. Which is a shame as they look good!

I got the roasted garlic mayo in the jar from Lidl, hadn’t seen it before and thought it looked nice. How wrong was I… it tastes really weird imo, neither like mayo or garlic and is quite sweet 🤢🤢🤢

On a more positive note I stocked up on the Aesop dupe body wash, I love it!! It smells lovely and doesn’t irritate my psoriasis which is always very welcome.
I actually loved it!

Also loving all the new fresh pasta in Lidl.

Talking of all things Veganuary which seems to be everywhere, I noticed Frickles in Aldi's new vegan offerings.
As discussed previously on here I can't seem to find them, so presume they're not in my store or they're permanently sold out!

Went in for the first time in ages yesterday and they had pan Suisse, Christmas filled muffins (choice of Speculoos or chocolate orange), and chocolate chip flapjacks. Supposedly also 'birthday cake cookies' and chocolate cronuts but I didn't see it them and don't know if they're old specials 🤷‍♀️

Scotland also had Scottish-themed Victoria sponge muffins this week which I'm assuming was for At Andrews Day.
Grabbed a chocolate cronut on Tuesday. Delicious but probably wouldn’t have another one.

Ok so I need to know if these have been discontinued? M&S do an equivalent but I refuse to pay nearly £4 there!
Both ALDIs closest to me don’t even have a space on the shelf for them anymore

These things quite literally are the bomb
They still have them in my store so hopefully it’s just a supply issue

saw that the aldi sol de janeiro spray dupes are coming back, did anyone here try them last time and if so what did you think? I haven't tried the actual sdj ones yet but really like the look of them, I'd probably try the aldi ones first if they're any good
They're ok, similar. I've heard good things of the home bargains dupes and I have the shower gel, seems similar to sdj

Been to Aldi and in the middle aisle I found some Deli Burger Pickle - ( I'm New) - £1.38 a jar. I did ask if it was going to go on the shelves as a regular but they didn't know. Just opened it and I am going to get a spoon and eat it all, it is delicious. Lovely and gherkiny and will go back tomorrow and get a few jars just in case it is a 1 off. Didn't bother with the sauce as it was pink with red bits in it and looked gloopy. :)
Just a heads up, this burger relish was reduced to 29p a jar in our local branch

I googled for Bilash reviews - I have to agree regarding the spiciness of the Biryani which made me cough but I still liked it! Seems that the prawn curry and Rogan Josh are well liked. I understand now why the dips were all swerved in my store:

I got loads of bargains in Aldi today.
50% off whole chicken and breasts
75% off mince and meatballs
50% off kids yogurts with 2 weeks till expired
Boursin for 32p plus loads of other stuff and most of it has at least 2 days left to eat.
I am NOT going to Aldi this afternoon. :) I was in M & S this morning and there were dozens of yellow stickers in there but I did resist them. Have enough random stuff in my freezer which I am going to eat in January.
