    In all honesty- both Aldi and Lidl have changed considerably in Ireland and the UK in the past 6-8 years- and are putting increased emphasis on luxury goods and increasing the quality of their own-brand offerings (to the extent that they are constantly fighting with one another at any product taste-tests (though very often in blind-testing, their products- particularly Christmas fare- significantly exceeds the name-brand products available elsewhere.

    What cost is associated with the shift in emphasis? I don't know?

    Tesco have never disclosed their profits in Ireland. I wonder why?
    Their prices in the Uk are alot cheaper.

    Might have been in the Sunday World . 10 euros worth of Vouchers. I didnt buy it but saw it when getting the Sindo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 846 ✭✭✭tantipie


    Saturdays indo had a voucher for a free box of cereal bars..were the Sun's vouchers any good does anyone know?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 31,117 ✭✭✭✭snubbleste


    They were coupons - 50% off common stuff. Do a search for Sundayworld & Aldi.

    Would the cereal bars cost less than the cost of the saturday Indo?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    a little OT, but I got Dunnes stores vouchers in the post for €25 off a €100 shop. worth signing up with them all!

    Wonder if there will be another voucher this week? This is up on the Independent website today

    Published 28/08/2014 | 15:22

    Save €10 on your shopping at Aldi this week
    Only with the Sunday Independent


    Soft, brown bread, creamy cheddar and cool mayo - with a side of crunchy apple.
    Sounds delish? At Aldi you can find fresh, delicious lunches, meals and snacks to make the first week back to school that little bit easier.

    What's even better, Aldi are offering Sunday Independent readers a very generous €10 off voucher when you spend €50 or more.

    Only in the week's Sunday Independent.

    Calling it "THE week's Sunday Independent" is throwing me though. Bit of a stupid article if today's website is advertising last week's voucher.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 69,908 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    I believe so, the original announcement was for three weeks worth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,113 ✭✭✭Whiplashy


    Aldi have confirmed on Facebook that there is another €10 voucher in the Independent tomorrow. There's also a "treat" in today's Independent. Doesn't say what it is though.

    Also Aldi are getting in paper log briquette makers during the week for us to recycle those stupid papers:D

    Bought one of these a few years back and had great expectations but in all honesty they are SO much hassle they really are not worth the effort. You soak the paper, make the blocks and wait for an eternity for them to dry out, then when you eventually do get to burn them they throw out so little heat and burn so quickly it seemed a total waste of time!! Sorry if I'm raining on your parade! :o

    best thing cut out coupon and stick newspaper straight into fire saves the messing and saves reading that Indo rubbish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,541 ✭✭✭duridian


    Lads are ye sure about it being Saturday's Indo that has the €10 voucher?, ALDI say the Sunday Indo on their Facebook page.

    It's the Sunday Indo. Today's paper just had a voucher for free mini rice cakes. The paper cost more than the rice cakes so hardly an offer!

    YOu get free ricecakes today- and the 10 Euro voucher tomorrow.

    25 off, I only got 18 off per 100. Still with the few euros off in cash vouchers, still works out at 25% but assumed they sent out the same value off amount for all customers.

    Righto, cheers.
    I'll hold off on the paper shopping until tomorrow. Was just a bit confused as some posts further back seemed to be saying that it was Saturday's indo had the tenner. :)

    How much is the Sunday Independent?
    And how long are these vouchers normally valid for?

    I've never spent near €50 in Aldi but if it doesn't expire soon I might hang onto it for when there's something big on special offer. €50 shop in Aldi would be a LOT of shopping. :)

    You can use it in Tesco as well. They are valid for the week and the Sindo is I think something like €2.30.

    No, they don't.

    It seems to be somehow customised, maybe in line with your previous spend, etc.

    I am not a regular DS shopper, I got 4 vouchers, all 25% off 40, 60, 80, 100.

    My friends got different reductions off different amonts.

    So you have to buy a paper you probably will never read to get €7 back. Doesn't sound that great after all :(

    What's not great? Take the voucher, throw the paper in the bin and you still are getting a free €7 - enough for a free bottle of wine, a free couple of steaks, a free weeks fruit, a free weeks toilet paper, a free weeks milk, a free few litres of juice....take your pick.

    I can get €15 back in Dunnes when I spend €60 this week without the need to buy a newspaper it's a more enticing offer that's all :)

    If you're a family of 4- and spend significantly more than this on groceries- having a couple of coupons can be handy.

    Yeah but only you can do that.

    The rest of the country can pick up the indo, take the voucher and be up €7 on the weekly shop straight away!!

    I take it thats because you have spent a lot of money shopping in Dunnes in the past?

    Yep, I'm also an occasional DS shopper and got the exact same vouchers. It seems regular DS shoppers get customised vouchers depending on how much they spend.

    If you've a PAYG mobile, use the voucher in Tesco to buy call credit with the rest of your shopping.

    Will there be a voucher in this coming Sundays paper?

    Or was last Sunday the end of it?

    Im sure thats the same as anywhere that issues vouchers? no?

    I think the Dunnes ones are offered to customers but the value might vary according to how much you spend, but Im not certain that you have to spend that much or anything at all to get the €x off per €x spend. It would be in DS interets to encourage low spending shoppers with more money off as you get them along with your accrued cash vouchers from points, with mine its practically 20% off, whether you view this as factored into the cost or not or a reward to help them track their customers real spending habits and so how they offer products or price them in the future, theres no reason not to avail of them.

    Not sure if thats a high value reward or just encouraging each person to spend a bit more than they usually do by offering vouchers
