I was on at 10 but held in a queue to check out and by 10.04 they’d sold out! Well done for managing to get oneI managed to get a mystery box
Ohhh, I thought it was an in-store thing! I'm not really a Lidl girl, so I didn't investigate the mystery boxesI was on at 10 but held in a queue to check out and by 10.04 they’d sold out! Well done for managing to get one
Hopefully you get some decent items in yours @sosticky!
Anything you cook in an oven , you can cook in an air fryer. Depending on weight it would maybe take 50 mins ishBIB - can you cook a whole chicken in an air fryer?

Proud mum of 2 crisp snobsI've defected too I love the scan and shop and building up nectar for Christmas (also one child has decided that they are a crisp snob and will no longer accept faux brands)
Whilst we're off topic I grabbed a bag of frozen salt and pepper chicken from Home Bargains and it was 10/10. Everyone is desperate for more!.
I don't remember this last year...
Mine has a rotisserie function but I've never used it. May go get a lil' chicken to try.
I like to put a whole chicken in the slow cooker, line the base with sliced potatoes, sprinkle of paprika and leave all day. You don't get the crisp skin but the meat is very succulent

I swear she sits in bed at night & thinks of things she can do to make my life more difficult 
My air fryer has a roast setting, so the booklet temp and timings might be a bit different to usual. The two problems I’ve had are having to truss it so the legs don’t pop up during cooking and get in the way of the drawer, and the tops of the drumsticks drying out a little. Both of these can probably be solved by cooking it breast down, but I’m an idiot who’s just realised that. I think most internet instructions say to turn it once during cooking, but it’s a tight fit and I’ve either burned myself or broken the chicken skin trying. It’s a useful thing to get the hang of though, good luck!BIB - can you cook a whole chicken in an air fryer?

I’ve roasted a chicken a few times in the air fryer and do the turning thing. So upside down for the first half of cooking time then flip it to be breast side up.
I wish Aldi would bring back online shopping
Picked up my free bakery item this morning in Lidl (Victoria sponge muffin)
Also got some of the mini stollen bites which I absolutely love, and some of their pretzel chocolate
Got a few packs of the salmon with lemon and pepper butter for the freezer, and those gorgeous mini potatoes dauphinois that they always have at this time of year.
I love this time of year in Lidl! They always have loads of goodies.

Yes! I miss their specialbuys, especially as my nearest ones are all little branches so the big items are never available
I have been shopping in Lidl in Spain this week and their Christmas chocolate is fantastic, wish they would sell it here. Turron and 3 types of chocolate topped with finely chopped dried fruit. Ate the first lot and went back for more to bring home.
My husband bought me the candle advent calendar from Aldi 
It's heavier than a newborn baby 
It's heavier than a newborn baby I decided I needed a treat today and bought myself the beauty advent calendar from Aldi 
Very much looking forward to opening it in December (it's only 12 days so I think I will do alternate days from Dec 1st!)

Ooooh, are there nice bits in it?
I might pop to my aldi first thing and see if they have the calender. My store isnt great at getting "new" trend things in stock so im not holding much hope lol
Here's a pic of the side showing contents (please excuse the security tag, lot of shoplifting in our store clearly
the item hidden by the tag is those little hair clips)Most of the bits I've either bought before and liked, or thought of buying
Edited to say I couldn't add the photo so had to screenshot it, sorry it's probably a bit small now
