A friend of mine has started shopping at netto


She gets hold of big brands and saves loads. She spends what she saves on clothes or CD's.


She thinks she's smart - but I think netto is unbearable. Should I give it a go?

Yes you should. If you don' t like it you won't have to go there again but you won't know if you like it by not going at all. Its not really that bad to be honest just very cheap

Must admit I have been disappointed on my occasional trip to Netto. If you want good quality at good prices,try Lidls. As anywhere you do need to pick and choose.

This question sounds like a case of SHEER SNOBBERY. I can`t use Netton because there is not one in our locality, but if there were I would certainly at least give a try. However, I do use LIDL all the time and I am quite disgusted at the amount of peoply who say "Oh, I NEVER go there! - simply because it`s beneath their dignity. Lidl`s prices in general are way below most other supermarkets and the quality does certainly not suffer. I always buy such branded items as frozen Mars, Snickers, Yorkies etc. at half the price of elsewhere. However, their car-park is often full of cars of non-customers - these belong to people who not only do not shop at Lidl but actively show that they would not dream of going in there. The vehicles, of course, are ALWAYS the type belonging to the sad drivers who insist on trying to impress to show their inadequatacy (4 x 4 and people-carriers etc.) I guess you must belong to this group if you have not yet patronised such stores as Netto, Aldi, Lidl.

I love Lidl, I wish there was one nearer though. I once got accused of snobbery for using Tesco bags in there! I can understand what they meant (they were only being jokey anyway) but I had lost my Lidl bag collection and am too tight fisted to buy more.


As for Netto, the one in Swaffham sucks. The quality is fab but it lacks choice, customer service and cleanliness.

I like Lidl too.I have never been to a Netto here only in Germany. My brother is the ultimate snob and won't go anywhere but Tescos. (I do love him though! )
If you are on a fixed income as we are now having retired Lidl is great. O.K. you can to pick and choose but for us ,especially Mr S it's good He can get his schwarztbrot and other German style stuff.They have great prices on tinned stuff.Their washing powder washes exactly as white and clean as any expensive brand. I buy fruit juice and bottled water there and they always have a good selection of fruit and veg at our store.

I always shop at Tesco. Nothing to do with snobbery or anything like that.


I am a very fussy eater and although I will eat some products from Netto or Lidl or similar places, I only eat Heinz beans and soups and only like Heinz tomato ketchup, etc. They sell lots of good products which I will eat and drink at very cheap prices but I then have to go to several shops to buy my produce which I don't have the time or effort to do.


It is so much easier to get it all in one shop.

SCB my friend is like you with brand names. It always has to be something like Heinz or Hellmans. I sometimes tell her the other products are just as nice but better value. Is it just taste or do you like the brand name?
Hmmm.....I only shop at the top quality Stores...Harrods if possible but Waitrose or M&S otherwise..on the odd occasion I have had no option but to go intoTesco in emergency, I ONLY buy the "Finest" range but of course I use what I buy to feed my dear pussies. I wouldn't stoop to eat it myself or even feed it to my hubby.

Most certainly I travel there in the 4X4. It's so much higher than the Rolls..how else would I be able to look down on the lower classes who insist on going to "my" shops..........they should be in NETTO or KWIKSAVE..I've never even heard of LIDL...is it foreign?

I too am on a fixed income and even though things are becoming more expensive we scrape by on our �200,000 a year pension........if only everybody had saved like we did they too could have had a reasonably comfortable retirement as we have...........My State Pension?........well it comes in handy to feed the cats and garden birds, though only just!

Well must dash.....someone at the door.....maybe it's Charles and Camilla for coffee (Harrods of course)..........<G>
