Better than the expensive ****e you get from Asda, and I've never had
anything from Tesco's that I've liked, except beer when it's on offer and
this is the only time I go there.
Aldi do good fresh meat and veg, and their tinned and bottled goods are
better and cheaper than any of the major supermarket's own brands, the only
drawback is it's absolutely packed out every weekend and you will queue at
peak times, also you might not get a parking space close by

Only the poor people used to go to Aldi, but now there are Mercedes and
Beamers parked in ours, so as usual the rich catch onto where to save
money. Lidl can also have some good bargains, even on non generic food.
On the plus side, actually 2 pluses, Aldi check outs are like greased
lightening, also go with your wife, they both have very good DIY offers
from time to time. I get their emails, which come in twice a week so you
can decide if you would like to assist your wife with her shopping!

Pretty good depending on what you buy. Some of the Lidls do absolutely
fantastic continental breakfast pastries cooked on the premises. Way
better than anything you can get in *any* UK supermarket.

They have also been known to have some pretty incredible computer
bargains of Medion kit that is amenable to Hackintosh treatment. You can
tell when there is a queue of hairy unwashed computer geeks hanging
about outside one at 7.45 in the morning (ISTR Thursdays).

Yes I have bought one. Works fine. (although as a Windows machine)
Latest models are not quite so good for this.

Some of their always ready NiMH batteries are well worth it too.

Yes, the ready-to-go batteries seem to be holding up ok; unlike the
previous Lidl ordinary NiMhs, which are all slowly dying off.

one with cheese, both with lettuce, onion,mayo and tomato.

Quite stumpy, thick burgers, little fat comes out, retain their shape well
and quite moist when cooked, they are lightly seasoned with herbs and are
over 90% beef, gonna get some more next week

It is a bit of a contest to pack your trolley as fast as they pass it

The idea is you just put your stuff back in the trolley as fast as it
comes through and move over to the shelf opposite to sort out putting it
in bags.

Taking longer than that so you delay other shoppers is just being selfish.

When I did monthly shops in Aldidl, I would put a couple of banana
boxes (sleeved fashion) in the bottom of the trolley. Come checkout
time, the stuff would be piled back into the boxes and the surplus
bunged on top for bagging at the car. Two full banana boxes hold a
surprising amount of stuff, making it easy to simply lift and drop
into the rear hatch/boot.

No problems but you need to watch the prices. They are big on "loss leaders"
& everything else is no cheaper or even more expensive. The loss leaders
are the ones you see on the TV.

The best thing Mrs Pounder can do is check prices on the internet if she is
on an economy drive.
& note them down, sometimes they are different when you get there.

I hope they have a cafe, I need coffee when shopping!

Take a flask. Aldi is a basic warehouse style shop. They don't put price
stickers on stuff in order to save money. The price is on a label
somewhere near the item, and if you want to be sure, make certain that
you check that the name on the label *exactly* matches the item you pick up.

You *might* be lucky and find a pub nearby that sells coffee...

Apart from meat and similar stuff in trays, the only time you find
individual priced items in any main supermarket now is when they're
being sold off on yellow or red labels.

Possibly.

I'm old enough to remember the excitement when supermarkets announced
they'd be giving away plastics carrier bags. As many as you wanted!

But a few years ago on a trip to France where there were no free bags, I
splashed out a euro on a sturdy carrier bag with a flat base. I
immediately realised that free supermarket carrier bags are actually a
pain in the arse. They're a pain to fill, a pain to carry, and they
empty themselves when put down. A few decent large bags for less than
50p each work so much better.

But are useless for lining your under-sink rubbish bin. I hate waste
plastic as much as the next man but as we have to store rubbish for up to
two weeks in our wheely bin, I'm not putting it in there unbagged so
supermarket carrier bags aren't entirely wasted.

How many people are using reusable shopping bags but buying more bin bags?

So a check over the last few weeks shows each carrier bag gets reused
2 - 3 times for shopping, before becoming the kitchen bin-liner.
The only bag which was thrown away was one which was used 4 times
and something cut a long slit in it, making it unusable as a bin-
liner.

So I'm now quite happy that the bag wastage in this household is
nothing, the only one having been thrown away due to being reused
too many times before becoming the bin liner.

The kitchen bin came from Woolworths many (10?) years ago, and is
a pedal bin which is designed to use carrier bags as bin liners, so
I never buy bin liners.

We have a little cubby-hole (meant to take a wine bottle) into which
the plastic bags get stuffed, and fished out when going shopping or
when needing a bin-liner. When it's almost empty, you don't take any
for shopping, and that's how equalibrium is maintained. It's worked
very well since buying the kitchen bin designed to take plastic bags
as bin-liners, and we've never needed to buy bin-liners.

Mine get used for months and then the wear on them inside the panniers borks
them, but these are the heavier ones (not 'bag for life' - they're too
bulky). My bags are sourced from my neighbour's shed as she always forgets
to take any, so my actual take of new bags is limited to 2 or 3 a year.

So I'm now quite happy that the bag wastage in this household is

I don't use a bin-liner as nothing messy (on the outside) ever goes in the
bin.

The kitchen bin came from Woolworths many (10?) years ago, and is
a pedal bin which is designed to use carrier bags as bin liners, so
I never buy bin liners.

Mine is a large plastic waste-bin, 99p from a local garage and just on the
limit for getting the bottom quarter into a large pannier and strapping it
in. Had it about 20 years. (your bid).

Yup, a little bit of management and bags 'rattling down' the system produces
very little waste.

Do you find yourself, as I find myself, smirking slightly at the sight
of the numerous chavettes wandering around around in summer wearing
sheepskin booties because they saw some WAG wearing the same boots in
the winter? OK, so they don't have the zip up the front, but they're not
*that* far from what my granny used to wear.

I wonder how many of them have red flannel vests and knickers that go

I sit in the car and read the paper while she shops.

The food will be OK, don't worry.
You DO like wurst and garlic?

Who wears the trousers? You or her?

You should be telling her where to shop and that she will not be getting
a good seeing to if she does not comply with your shopping needs.

I don't care where she shops as I am usually not invited.
Today we spent £71, she said that in Tescos it would have been about
£120.
If the food is crap we will not be going back. I will not be invited back
anyway due to trumping, slouching, looking bored, looking miserable and
"getting in the ****ing way".

Mrs Pounder would not tolerate such behaviour!

I have worked as a contractor in several abattoirs and have seen some very
unpleasant things.
I have also seen the boxes labelled as --- Tesco, Sainsburys, Waitrose,
Asda, M&S etc. The meat all comes from the same place.
Bread is just the same.
Potato crisps are as above.
Nu- Look clothes are made in Viet Nam
It is all a scam.

Try Lidl then - you'd fit right in.

Although Lidl also do good food, especially the fresh veggies, and they are
closer to us than Aldi :-)
