Are they called Potato Sticks or something like that?

Yes. My father has been on the look out for them based on my recommendation from here, but none of the staff knew what he was talking about. He eventually found them in Bray.

Saw them tonight in Ballyfermot but the Salt and Vinegar was well raided. Almost bought them, but I've a big cake of banana bread to eat first

they would be easy to miss. All the packs are in the same cardboard box, and it is quite small and easy to miss. In my lidl they were near the nuts, rather than the crisps/snacks. I hope they come out in smaller multipacks. If I open a bag like that they are a gonner.

That was one of the reasons I left them behind. I'd have to open them to try them out, then I'd be comatose on the couch with an empty packet.
They were at the end of the crisps aisle in Ballyfermot in case people are looking

I got two fabulous Fillet steaks on Saturday 10.99
I put back about four times but got them in the end, very happy I did!!
I'd highly recommend them and will get them again myself.

Picture of the new wafer oats packaging for the aficionados

Deuxe Wafer Oats

Finally saw them in the local store today! Didn't get them though as I have a few kilos of porridge and muesli to use up!

I actually slightly prefer the single 200g ones in the pack for €4.79 each - great value

Same, you can be as picky as you like about thickness, marbling etc.

Oaklands Salad Trio, salad leaves sold in the composted rootball. Deffo the best lasting and tastiest such package I've tried.

Do Lidl do pepper sauce anymore? I remember they used to do tubs of them but I can never find them anymore in my local.

Still there in the box beside the steaks in Bray anyway.

To whoever suggested those Lidl mini chips damn you !!!!!!!!!!!ðŸ˜€

They finally had them in stock in Kilkenny when I popped in today. Have to say they are just like kp's version, but not as salty sadly. The bag didn't last long. Great price too.

I have a bag of the sour cream ones to try with the kids after.

Poochie05 · 23-02-2018 7:00pm

I am just tucking in to some of the ready salted with a G&T!

You could always add your own salt. Trick is to use a really fine salt. I put salt in my ninja blender to powder it. In mcdonalds you see them putting salt on chips and it is really fine and covers more evenly and does not just roll off them.

Tesco do a 150g bag for 69c and they are very good too, only in ready salted.

Need to find an excuse to be back in Kilkenny tomorrow. The "kids" demolished the 2 bags

The new LIDL natural/plain skyr is decent - €1.39 for 350g. Not as nice as the icelandic brand one or the Glenisk 0% fat greek but cheaper and very consumable

I see they also have valley spire british quark marked as new - picked one up and will report back!

Has anyone tried the new spinach and cheese veggie burgers located in the fridge section?

Was tempted to buy them today but put them back; they aren't very burger bun friendly though for some reason :P they are battered cod kinda shape versus traditional round burger shape

Nothing to do with food, but you can help

Have Lidl stopped stocking the triple blade Cien razors (orange and black) all I can see are blue/black double blades. last weekend did wonder if was a weather related issue maybe some pallet not getting through but still nothing.

I dont think they're coming back, which is a pity because they were basically identical to Mach 3 or Quattro for a fraction of the price. Ive seen people complaining about Aldi changing their razors around aswell and making the old stuff obsolete, very annoying.

Im giving the old Gilette Safety Razors a go, bought a Gillette Fatboy on Ebay, the pack of blades worked out at about 10 cents each.

LirW · 10-03-2018 8:43pm

So annoying, I used them too as a lady and I find them brilliant! It really annoys me changing around all the time, because I really don't wanna use Venus or some other overpriced ones.

Cheddar and black pepper flatbread thins.

Cannot stop eating the bloody things.

Utterly addictive
