Does anyone know: I have such a backlog of bakery stuff at Lidl now, can I gather them all up and put them through one by one in different transactions? Or do they need a time gap between each one?

Seeing a relative tomorrow then a friend so can distribute them! Wish they'd stuck to the fruit wheel

Surely because they are all single items you can get them all. I put more than one through per transaction ie a tart,brownie,croissant. All different items, each had a different spinand activation button. But all in one buy.

I think the only time they are incompatible is if you have - for example - a free donut, and then you try to activate a general ‘free bakery item’ reward at the same time.

If the coupons are for specific items, you should be able to activate all in one go Just double checked my app and I definitely have multiple active. So yes, it is the ‘free bakery item’ coupon-plus reward that clashes. All others should be fine

This is what came up on my app when I tried to activate them all

Do you have a general ‘free bakery item’ coupon active? That’s what the message says. The specific item ones should not clash. Also check if your app is fully updated because the change was made a while ago to how their coupons work

Even if you have the free bakery item you can still get that in the same visit(I usually go for the GI loaf or something) and the other free bakery spin items. I usually use the self check out and scan all the free wheel items then "pay" then activate the free bakery item for meeting the spend threshold coupon and put that item through as a separate transaction

I would feel way too awkward doing that at the checkout. My local doesn’t have self service Jealous of you who have them

Tried the raspberry croissant this morning (in the car before I even left the car park ), just a croissant with jam, I’ll still to the almond or choc hazelnut going forward. Or a plain one with the pistachio or hazelnut creme I got on Italian week . Also picked up my free bakery item so went for a white sourdough (makes sense to redeem their most expensive items)! And I had a free choc hazelnut donut to redeem which I’ve just demolished but wouldn’t buy again . Oh and because I’d met the next spending threshold I got a free share size bag of crisps. And now I’ve got a baguette to redeem by next week. Lidl, making losing weight harder!

That’s my one problem with Lidl, I love crisps and I think theirs are grim! The ones I’ve had before tasted of greasy oil that hasn’t been changed for ages Does anyone have any go tos? I much prefer Aldi crisps.

The only crisps of theirs I rate (and I too am a crispaholic) is their fake Frazzles. They are incredible. Agree the rest are shit.

I was in an Aldi earlier and found Chassaux Et Fils Atlantique Rosé! Didn't have enough money to get all their stock but had to get one at least. In the fridge, ready for later

@Dontmindme I had both the choc hazelnut and almond croissant for breakfast!

I tend to shop little and often as it's so close and it's nice taking a stroll down in the evening, but the backlog of bakery spins...

I read that as “I like to shop lift” and thought wow this is a real safe space

I'm not a fan of Rocky Road generally but Aldi have piqued my interest now.



Bits of their version of mint Aero chopped into mini bits of yum. Delicious.
