Lovely photos of lovely things! Well done to your son! What annoys me about Aldi & Lidl is the fact that they don't stock everything I need so I have to then gone lsewhere, they don't take credit cards and you have to pay for bags (for some reason I always remember my bags if going to Tesco but forget if going to Aldi & then either try and stuff as much shopping as I can in my handbag or pay for some bags!)Wilfing Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08333370314272212167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044399031300661767.post-8065118576389769742014-09-01T17:10:38.166+01:002014-09-01T17:10:38.166+01:00Oh well done to your son!

I think it takes a bit of getting used to, but I did a shop in it to a) see what I could save and b) see if the quality was just as good. I was amazed actually. Seeing as our food bills seemed to have tripled in the last year, seriously, the kids just eat and eat and eat. It sickens me that they can stuff their faces and just shoot up and not out. I look at a apple turnover and I gain 8 lbs. I was quite shocked by the saving when I did a comparative shop online.So I might be in there more than I thought I ever would. xxxCoco Rose Diarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00708755502453874593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044399031300661767.post-1749981851234517292014-08-31T22:08:34.426+01:002014-08-31T22:08:34.426+01:00Six very nice things indeed!

I haven't yet had a bad bottle of wine from there. :-) You say the clientele are interesting...well, my "other" supermarket, my nearest one, is Asda, and the clientele can be pretty interesting in there too. ;-) Not like Waitrose. Incidentally, I once saw this hilarious thing going around FB where Waitrose staff had supposedly written a list of the things they'd overheard customers saying. I found a link to it. You've probably already seen it but it made me laugh out loud. xx<br /><br />http://www.buzzfeed.com/scottybryan/the-overheard-in-waitrose-facebook-page-is-the-poshest-page#4cqjcy6Gillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044399031300661767.post-90382769848999912972014-08-27T11:11:47.130+01:002014-08-27T11:11:47.130+01:00Hi,Congratulations to your son.We have a Fantastic...Hi,Congratulations to your son.We have a Fantastic Aldi in Truro,very good quality food.Love the beautiful flowers.Happy Day.xLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357706704833965498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044399031300661767.post-810341518051274732014-08-26T22:53:58.257+01:002014-08-26T22:53:58.257+01:00Huge huge congrats to your son on his triple scien...Huge huge congrats to your son on his triple science, and to do that a year early and get such fab results is fantastic!
