Cheap stuff you like

[Chocolategoggler]

Oh! I thought of another - I now exclusively buy Lidl or Aldi instant coffee (I actually think they're exactly the same coffee) and have been for a couple of years. The Columbian one with the slightly snazzy label (comes in another kind I forget. They're not terribly different).

My preference used to be Douwe Egberts but would only buy it on offer. I'd also go for Kenco and other brands on offer, but never a Nescafe Gold or anything like (tastes like village hall coffee imo). I'd always assumed that any coffee from Lidl/ Aldi would be garbage, but it's my very favourite now.

Least worst and most affordable instant coffee!

Arabica?
I changed to Aldi a while ago for their Azera dupe. I get workmen asking what my coffee is so high praise . However, my latest tin hasn't been nice. Hope the decaffeinated blue one in my cupboard to be opened next turns out to be better...
Can't comment on Lidl as I've never tried theirs. I've just bought some oatcakes from there which are virtually tasteless.

It's Columbian in Lidl, and Columbian and Costa Rican in Aldi!

Aldi’s version of gold blend is my favourite. I can’t drink actual Nescafé

I've bought the Aldi one but have a slight preference for Lidl's version.
We have Nescafe in work and it tastes horrible! Might start bringing my own in.

Really can't fathom how Nescafe became the default coffee. Its bleepin horrible. We have this one in the kitchen at work. Tastes like Bovril or something.

I bought Next Cashmere yesterday and forgot how lovely it is. I’m not sure what it’s a dupe for but the smell is lovely.

I bloody love that Perfume!

Aldis moisturisers and face wash dupes are pretty good!!

I’m going into town later (Wilkos, primark, savers etc!)
Can anyone recommend a cheap and cheerful room diffuser? I do like the wooden sticks one the most!
Thanks x

Primark has some good ones. I’ve got one in my bedroom at the moment and the smell is nice, not over powering but I can smell it’s there.

It’s this one but they have other scents too

The Aldi ones are nice, especially the lime one. Jo Malone knock off.

I like the Wax Lyrical / Colony ones, they last a long time.

Urban Noodles
They were microwave noodles in a packet that looks like a take away box. They were so yummy. Used to get them in Dunnes Stores but haven't seen them in any shop in ages.

Apologies if have been mentioned. However, I recommend

Shopmium app - I do not use enough but a plethora of discounts across the main supermarkets. Easy to use, you pay up front for their offers, discounts or freebies paid back quickly. Bright pink app if you go on Google play, assume same on app store. Extra discounts if you share with friends and the ability to give free pringles if discount code shared and 3 quid to your "personal pile"

Won't share my code but spread the love. Due to personal circumstances I'm fairly isolated. Or just isolated but frugal living.

Enjoy and spread the love.


Utilities - including dare I say it gas, lecci, broadband, all Inc Sims. If you are not with utility warehouse, Google and get a quote. They are the only UK multi service provider and yes, it's schiz at mo but again I do not care about recompense.

Get a quote, they may be a good fit. I all the extra perks.

And supersavvy.com

I bought this recently and I like it a lot more! The smell is better and it feels nicer in my hair. Definitely a convert from Batiste which is £4+ even in cheaper stores like B&M

 

[mozzarellagirl]
