Re shortages, has anyone else noticed a lack of salami/ pepperoni in their local shops?

Neither of our local Lidls have had German salami for weeks, just Italian (which I don't like 🤣) I've looked in Tesco as well and they only had the fancy Italian stuff . Feel like I've missed a memo - I just want the cheap £1 a pack stuff 😂
We still have the German salami but it is now a double pack so no longer £1.

Some shuffling is definitely afoot as they've discontinued the large cherry yoghurt.

*ALDI*Has anyone had the frozen meals in the bags, there was butter chicken curry, beef burrito, fajita ect they were always handy to hand in the freezer for a night we were working late but I can’t seem to them anymore… anyone else noticed if they are still around?
I discovered them last week and liked them! Great for when you are short of time but feels more like proper cooking than a microwave ready meal..

They are still around in my store. They are so handy. Wish they would bring the Thai Green curry one back.

Yes 🥲🥲 my store had Salami but no pepperoni - the space for it was there but the digital label said "out of stock" 😔
 
I have to praise Lidl's customer service team. Went to the Hammersmith branch yesterday and neither the app discount nor my coupon went through at the time.

Got in touch with them on WhatsApp, perfect for me and my issues, and they've put a new coupon on my Lidl app that more than covered the difference.

That branch might be awful but I was very impressed with their response. Well done them 👍🏻

I've found them to be brilliant like that. Whatever the item was they gave me a coupon for about three times the price.

I had two bakery vouchers, a free cheese twist, I’m normally a sweet tooth but this was delicious. I think I need to be sweet and savoury on my bakery trip 😅

My other voucher was a free sweet treat so I got the pecan slice thing and also delicious!

I was also looking for the anti aging eye cream which seems to have disappeared but I did find vitamin c serum for £3 which said it was new so going to give that a try 🤷🏼‍♀️

I love a cheese twist! Whack them in the air fryer for a minute or 2. If they make it from the car!

Has anyone tried the gastro chicken and pancetta bake? It’s so good.
Yes! Omg loved it. Now I’m tempted to go get one for this week. The chorizo mac n cheese is amazing too. I have been known to have half of each one together as a meal 😆

Is this Aldi or Lidl? Both sound amazing!

The Bilash curries are back. My local was piled high with all the mains and sides this morning.
Got 2 mains and two sides, for under a tenner!
They’re only back for a week though😞

I love them - best supermarket curries ever but I am on hols from tomorrow -- bugger. I have not been in for a few days as I have enough food until I come back.

We just had them. One chicken one and one paneer- delicious. Hadn’t intended to, but fridge was full. That’s my excuse😀
Enjoy your hols. I’m just back.

Random question - what sort of expiry dates are on the curries? (And is it worth a detour to pick some up?!)
