Today's offer. The cracker selection is very good, even at full-price. I just wish these didn't expire so quickly. Not all of us go every day 😒

Does anyone buy the barista oat milk from Lidl? Has it changed recently? I used to use it all the time, it was as good as the brand names, but I recently picked one up and it's gross now - all oily and seems to separate in coffee. Have I had a bad one, or is it not as good as it used to be?
Not in the UK but that happened to my mum as well. Not sure if it was the barista or the other oat milk though.

Aldi has Ossau Iraty, one of my favourite cheeses, usually about a fiver - I think it was about £3.70 in Aldi and delicious.

Bought a box of Medjool dates on Friday from Aldi- £3.99 - and they are lovely, plump and soft. Hope they have still got them on Tuesday.
They’re so good right? I always stock up when they have them in for Eid.

What is barista milk? I picked some cornish stuff up in Aldi today thinking it was similar to a jersey/ gold top but saw it said barista. Is it only for coffee? I will google!

Bought a rum stollen for £3 and 2 packs of the crackers from Lidl . Such a good price . I also bought pkts of the chocolate lollies they are down to £1.69 and are delicious. We used them in hot chocolate and coffee instead of the very expensive chocolate dippers .

I got that last year and I swear my hair was fuzzier .Tried it one more time and again , hair like candy floss... So it's still in the press since last year..

Now I will say maybe I didn't use it right, But huge no from me personally.

Not oat but I used to use their coconut milk until it changed so after 3 bottles splitting in my tea I switched to Sainsburys own which is much better!

Barista milk usually has additives that make it possible for the plant based milks to be steamed and frothed. Normal oat milk for example doesn't really work when you try to make a latte

I picked it up today already and just wanted to hear from anyone who knows the real product well to see how it compares. I'll be able to compare myself in due course. Will be great if it's good. I've never bought the real one just have had it a few times in beauty boxes.

Today’s LIDL coupon is 25% off Christmas puddings.

I agree with others that 2 days to use each coupon is absolutely ridiculous. Who is going there every couple of days just to get these items? Most of these ‘savings’ are not worth the time, effort and money travelling to keep going back and forth to the shop. I guess it’s useful for people who maybe pass nearby on their work journey or live close.

I know all they want is to get you in the shop as much as possible so you see other things and pick them up. It’s just annoying lol.

Preach!
I get a free plant today (if I spend over 10€) but the offer is only valid today.
Lucky for me I was going to go shopping today anyway.

The boots one was worse, 1 day and in store only. Great if you work in town and can pop in on your lunch
