    It just means Lidl sees the UK as a market with potential.

    Lidle are one of the biggest supermarket chains in Europe, not some bargain basement operation like Iceland.

        When in Wandsworth I used to go to Lidl for certain stuff: their £5 Prosecco was excellent, as was the packaged salmon.
        Meat and other alcohol was tulipe quality though.

          I'm surprised to read so many posters admitting to

          defending that they shop in no-frills stores.

          I notice another Waitrose in Edinburgh last time I up. Mehh

              They do some low fat nurnburger sausages that are as good as the ones I used to buy in Germany.

                  Yeah but you can get John Lewis to deliver goods to Waitrose for your convenience, also no other supermaket does Jaipur IPA.

                  We don't buy our weekly shop in there but it's good when you want a treat.
