personal opinion,Aldi and Lidl
You need to go into Lidl prepared with water and snacks for the checkout wait alone.Plus the lines piss me right off - like people that their three year old slowly unpack everything at the end of the massive belt causing a pile up, then they pack at a snails speed.
And when they do open a new till 90% of the time people just rush to it rather than offer the people already waiting first. It's like the scrum you used to get when people would elbow you out of the way to board Ryanair when the seats were a free for allYou need to go into Lidl prepared with water and snacks for the checkout wait alone.
they seem to refuse to open more than one till.
The ACTUAL stress of trying to work out if you keep your place in the first queue (and eat your second queue snack) or chance your arm and try and join the new queue with Brenda and the twins beating each other with the tiger breadAnd when they do open a new till 90% of the time people just rush to it rather than offer the people already waiting first.

Marks & SpencerS always irks meKinda related to this thread but does it make anyone else cringe when people call Aldi and Lidl ‘Aldi’s and lidl’s.’ So adding the unnecessary S at the end
I think their chocolate is fantastic, and excellent value.Aldi and Lidl definitely! I’d say they’re the best for meat, fruit & veg and cupboard bits. I’m a bit of a snob tho because I don’t like any of their own branded crisps, chocolate etc so will go to Asda for things like that
No, because it’s possessive, as in I’m going to Aldi’s store/shop/premises. It’s more irritating when people drop the to, as in going Aldi.Kinda related to this thread but does it make anyone else cringe when people call Aldi and Lidl ‘Aldi’s and lidl’s.’ So adding the unnecessary S at the end
I use them sporadically, not every week. The sent me some Cathedral City cheddar as a substitute for another cheese I ordered and it was much better than I expected. I like the frozen vegetables they have, like mixed peas and beans, spinach and the soffritto which I use as a base for soups and sauces.Ocado online here. Not a snob. They have much better dates on things, less alternatives and Tesco and asda ( Tesco were the worst) were regularly sending food where I’d have to eat half the shopping that night so it didn’t go off.
I don’t find it much more expensive to be honest if you buy the branded things and they often do meal deals like chicken, noodles, sauce and veg for a stir fry for £6 for example.
No I mean when they say ‘I’m shopping in Lidl’s.’I think their chocolate is fantastic, and excellent value.
