Not sure if this is all Aldi's or just my local one but they'd reduced loads of the frozen veggie food when I went in at the weekend, it was all 75p/ 99p.

Bought the Raspberry and Almond Brain Health Granola this morning and it is also very good, think it might be nicer than the berry and apple but only had a handful.

These Harvard and Yale style sweatshirts are on sale from this Thursday in Aldi in Ireland, I will head there and have a look:

I wonder if Aldi in the USA ever sell Wrexham and Doncaster sweatshirts

This is your warning

They had a t-shirt with New Jersey on it in Primark the other day, and I said to my sister I wonder if they have t-shirts in the US Primarks with Birmingham on them

I guess it would be oxford and whatever other uni is as highly regarded as oxford

The Moser Roth biscuit bars are down to 50p in Aldi. In case one can't stretch the budget to those.

The sticky cinnamon buns are back in the Lidl bakery!

 

[it’s not been changed?!]

Thoughts?

I'd buy one. Seems like a take on the overpriced rit you can get in Camden market and other places.

Yorkshire Burrito! Worst thing I've ever eaten

I tried the Aldi orange and cranberry cocktail can today and it has this odd note in it. Almost like when there's a speck of washing up liquid left afterwards. However I am just after a cold so may have funky tastebuds at the moment.

Bought the stollen cookies in Lidl yesterday. Dated until January 27 so not sure if I’m going to wait until the festive period, or if I’ll end up tucking in before

You should probably eat them now, so you can get more if they're really good. I don't like Stollen (dried fruit ) but my husband said the dark chocolate coated Stollen bites are really nice.

I'm still traumatised by the Aldi Mojito I bought on the recommendation of this thread.

My late husband made his own Stollen but still bought the small ones from Lidl so he could have them as a snack when he was out and about instead of a big slab of his own, he thought they were nearly as good as his.

I love the dedication to Stollen here, it was obviously very important to him.
