Any shop where there are loads of horrible screaming brats , and you will find bargins Don't try to find any hose in LIDL, I never saw it... They are really poor in evrything but food and cleaning products nad al DIY goods they sell are occasional sales, they don't sell the same products everyday... BTW it's a good bargain place for food, especially vegetable, and they have some bargain prices on beer, if you like to it a lot, it's the cheapest place to provide your beermountain !

Thanks Robbo, but I'm with Gilles on this one. I've only experienced one LIDL, and I don't fancy it again. Besides my own screaming kid is 19 now and I try to avoid them these days

For Gods sake, don't eat their food! WHHHUURRRPP!
I once had their tinned Baked Beans. Never again. The can was designed to look suspiciously like Heinz to the casual observer. Upon opening the tin, there appeared to be small rock hard gall stones swimming in a foul smelling sauce of thin pink vinegar. Mind you at seven pence a tin, what do you expect.
And as for their meat! Their tinned ham says on the back " "May contain marine mammal fat and other meat biproducts".
Incidentally, I was once surprised to see Dame Judy Dench coming out of the Horley branch. No wonder Michael Williams is dead if she fed him on that crap.
So, as far as Lidl is concerned, hose pipes yes, food no.

Tend to agree with that one Andy. I had a look in theRedhill branch when I worked in that town, and I wasn't impressed. A chap who lives next to me told me that they are very popular in Germany. Can't see why.

Regrettably, Germany is in a contiuing and worsening economic slump. It has ten percent plus unemployment, over six million people on social benefit. Hence, I guess, Lidl do well.

Ah yes...........the benefits of re-unification. I was in Leipzig recently and they are spending a fortune on the place. Wouldn't surprise me if they won the olympic bid.

I can concur... We took some ' Lidls Chilli Con Carne' to Le Mans in 2001.... We all know how bloody awful the weather was.... Well I (in my role as Little Chef) started to prepare what we all hoped would be a hot meal to restore some warmth to pi55ed, wet and cold bones.... They must have run out of lips, eyes willies and any other animal/marine derivatives because it was the consistency of gravy... but without any of the taste.... The fact that I managed to burn the disgusting gloop to the bottom of the pan and is something I have been reminded of every year since, is another story....

Made in Poland out of genetically modified cheese and rotting Albanian tomatos, all on a base of stone-ground bones and left overs from the cattle cake factory. And the pepperoni is an actual sliced up donkeys cock, which is why it has a hole down the middle. Ever wonder how they can make them, ship to the UK and sell at a profit all for £1.50?

nothing wrong with Kens Kebabs. Better than most godawful burger bars in Southsea.
I presume your idea of a balanced meal is a Big Mac in each hand?
