Just a heads up in Aldi, that the handbag perfumes are coming in on Sunday, one is supposed to be a Black Opium dupe the other Caroline Herra, l think. And a few moisturizers, for under eye and face
Also they are launching a new eyelash growth serum that's supposed to be a dupe of Rapid Lash, will be interesting to see how that goes. I've loved the LiLash serum for years but it's pricey at over 100 quid.

Also love their salted Caramel Yoghurts, delicious 😋
Do you know the names Aldi use for the perfumes ?

I think they had the serum before if that's the same one, I wasn't too impressed

I'm seriously considering making more stuff from scratch due to the amount of strange ingredients in food...... and rapeseed oil!

Other than that has anyone else noticed the lack of food in Aldi especially eggs and veg?
I went in this afternoon for the first time in almost a week (as I now live on my own and don't need to shop so often) and ok it is change over day for Super 6 etc tomorrow but I needed porridge to do my brekkies for a few days but the lack of food in the fridges was awful. Not much choice of fresh fish, only 1 low large hummus and I wanted 2, had to scrabble down in the fridge at the back to find veg frittatas, no coriander and lime rice and found out they have stopped the dupe of Ryvita after all these years. Neighbour wanted thin cut steak and had to go across the road to Asda to get them for her, but the worst was they had no Beachfront White Zinfandel, it might be cheap but I really like it. Don't know what the 1 I bought is like, will see later. Really not impressed with them today.

I've heard reports of Tesco having the same problems on another thread.

I'm currently using that. I was looking forward to it, but I think I prefer the Superdrug one in the blue container.🤔
I love the Superdrug one & it’s always on offer. I really like their B skincare range, i use a few things from it.

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 think I had not better wait until Sunday and go when they open in the morning - would hate to miss it at 20p. :) Just finished up 1 jar on my salad, only 1 left.

I had one today and it was the nicest thing I've ever put in my mouth tbh 😂
I’ve avoided trying one of these because I was worried what might happen, but now I think I need to. Hopefully I can get one tomorrow morning 🤭

I also won an apple turnover and have a free bakery item on my Lidl Plus. Stop sabotaging me, man 😪

Oh heck this week I ended up with a free muffin, free focaccia / pizza AND another free item 😩😂

Does anyone know if they have the bakery ingredient list available in the store? I’ve never seen it but also never asked because everyone always looks too busy 😆

Funny story I was eating the goat cheese focaccia (never had one but wanted to try) and I was really enjoying it but then I realised it tasted kind of sweet and I wondered why. I have an allergy to honey so I started to panic because it’s in everything these days. I managed to find a list online of all the ingredients for the bakery items and I wanted to die when I saw honey is in the goats cheese on the bread! Safe to say I didn’t have a very fun afternoon 🤢
