Tesco -V- Lidl

[smurfchops]

Today: Silvikrin Hairspray £2.00 for 250ml in Tesco. 75p for 400ml in Lidl.
No wonder Tesco was half empty and Lidl had long queues ....

I love Lidl. Especially their Deluxe range.

Lidl are planning to build a store opposite Tesco, just along the road from where I live. Which store should I patronise?

[Baldric]

I thought advertising on AB was not allowed

[bookbinder]

This is in Food & Drink, Baldric, and not Adverts, so that's probably OK.

[ummmm]

Baldric...when the poster has nothing to gain from it it's hardly advertising!

identical cans? Or was the Lidl one made in Mongolia? Serious question, are you comparing like with like?

The other question would be if these are permanent prices or one-off reductions?

£2.50 for 400 ml at Tesco today, the cheapest of all supermarkets (except Lidl) with the exception of Iceland which is also £2.50

I fail to see why you think I wouldn't have noticed that.

Well in case you are running out of hairspray, I thought I would just help you out ... I dont work there !!!!

Morrison's v Morrison's:
A big decision this evening in Morrison's - Should I buy 12 McVitie's Jaffa Cakes for £1.19 or 24 for £1.00? I really had to struggle with that one ;-)

[smurfchops]

Jno identical cans. Both made in Germany. I havent bought this before in Lidl so I dont know if this is the usual price. Just shows how you have to compare prices. Oh I did compare Simple Cleansing Fluid today before buying, half price in Boots so another bargain !!

Be careful of copies, which are not the same thing....there was a programme on the other nights showing shampoo sold in bargain stores which was pirate version...this may be the same.
