My french friend told me that the dairy farmers once protested by dumping a massive amount of milk on the streets of Paris one time. Apparently the smell was… Well you can imagine.

The French know how to protest.

I have both on my way home from work conveniently, but the Lidl is handier so I use that and not so much the Aldi, but I thought I might be missing some hidden gems. :)

We don’t have either of those here unfortunately.

Oh they do yeah. Lots of varieties and very cheap too. The brown fusili with pesto is a favourite with the kids.

Have you other large discount supermarkets there? Other than Lidl that is.

They both absolutely dominate the discount section in Ireland but thankfully have driven down prices in the other large chains.

You chime in pal. Pure shite. 1/10. Like they put calories in my belly but it was a chore to eat them.

I wonder if yours are different. Hang on I’ll get a pic…

edit:

Yeah their fresh baked section is very good generally. I’ve a 15 year old who is madly in love with their apple turnovers. I can make her day for the low, low price of 99c. :D

They do a really nice brown soda bread in Ireland but if you’re not in early it’s always sold out. Aldi does have a decent fresh baked section too mind you.

Nice!

Yeah, all fair points. I do love the convenience of using my phone to pay too in fairness.

This may seem like a silly solution but maybe pop your debit card inside your phone case. It should bop through it.

No it’s not mincing words. One is antisemitic and the other is not. You should learn the difference tbh.
