I could probably move to every 2 weeks in the future - you've given me food for thought :) Thank you! The money is definitely better in our pockets than the supermarkets!Tracy https://www.blogger.com/profile/05866363148112288322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-42930784697296458382020-03-09T01:43:16.178-07:002020-03-09T01:43:16.178-07:00I do love a bit of HP sauce!

We get that from Tesco as needed and it's not the kind of thing you go through too quickly ;)Tracy https://www.blogger.com/profile/05866363148112288322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-55375390731962289152020-03-09T01:35:01.862-07:002020-03-09T01:35:01.862-07:00Thanks Lou!

In my view, it's crackers. If Aldi arrives at Aber there may be some good deals to be had as they compete :) Tracy https://www.blogger.com/profile/05866363148112288322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-62935797841213189812020-03-06T05:04:28.878-08:002020-03-06T05:04:28.878-08:00I shop mainly at Lidl and am very happy with the q...I shop mainly at Lidl and am very happy with the quality of the food there. I also like that when they reduce something, they always do it two days before the date on the item with 30% off and then reduce it further on the actual date. Just another plus : )Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16855403299773356566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-89342005775760033182020-03-05T12:16:59.477-08:002020-03-05T12:16:59.477-08:00Been to Lidl today, its our nearest and like you w...Been to Lidl today, its our nearest and like you we get most of what we need, we shop every 2 to 3 weeks with a fresh top up locally. We also do a big supermarket shop every few months. Like you, we save money.

I like that we, too, can get the vast majority of our shopping there. I am not ashamed of shopping there at all and never thing of it as low quality like some people. It definitely keeps our food bill down but if we want something they can't provide we have Tesco, Iceland and Morrison, too. As it happens we are waiting to hear if Aber will be getting an Aldi this year which will be interesting to go back and compare items. Always fab to hear about your challenges, chic.xLouise Houghtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13074355125344865358noreply@blogger.com
