Aldi & Lidl #9

I’ve been to 2 different Aldi’s and both still had low stock levels on chilled food. On top of only eating breakfast all day, I was definitely getting hangry just now.

Same here, the fridges were only about half full in mine. I’ve not seen it fully stocked since I did the Christmas shop.

Think it must be the same everywhere. The meat and fruit and veg was fully stocked but the yogurts and cooked meat side was very sparse and not much from the salmon round to the cheese and coleslaw etc (if all shops are same).
My son said theirs was the same and they live in Manchester, about 100 miles from me.

My Lidl is the same - went in on 27th when the stock supposedly rolled over for NYE party bits and it was bare! Did a basic shop for essentials yesterday and they are running low on pretty much everything.

I know you can get flavoured cream cheese, but do either Aldi or Lidl do a Boursin dupe? My teenager has discovered it stirred into pasta, and the real stuff is costing me a fortune!

I haven't seen one in Aldi only the garlic and herb cream cheese.

I bought one from Aldi at Christmas but it was with the Christmas cheeses, so there might be no Boursin-likey cheeses for us meeces out of season. It was a little roll in a clear plastic container, and as mad Mr Darvos doesn’t much rate it I got to eat It All.

Aldi have some heated car seat covers, only £7.99, really work well! We bought a couple.

Yes that roulade is the most like cheese really. Lidl or is it Aldi :mdo a whipped flavoured cheese range but it's light and airy not dense like Boursin.

If you have Home Bargains near they sell Boursin at a decent price.

I'm almost certain Lidl have a version of this, at least they used to. I hope you find one. If not there I know Tesco does a dupe, but it's vegan.

I’ve just been and they had these garlic herb mini rolls with regular stock!

I did buy one of the whipped ones, but I've not opened it yet! I'm sure it'll do for something though.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone, we will keep the kid in cheesy pasta for now!

Just home from Aldi here in Ireland, and the lovely bags of Christmas crisps, the boxing day curry and aromatic duck flavours etc, are reduced to 29c.
And they had boxes of duck spring rolls for only 49c.

I could live off the duck spring rolls. They're divine.

Same in UK. Got some of the Christmas mayos to try for 9p!! The wagyu dripping hasn’t gone down yet but did last year. The bomb puddings are also down to 29p.
Also got a few bits for the dog that were reduced too.
