i think they're great i got 2.1 speakers for 30 euro and i needed em too.
plus they junk food is lovely and we got a popcorn maker!
which is gathering dust in the cupboard...........
 
where are you from? I knew that there were ALDI markets outisde of germany (ALDI and LIDL are both from germany), but i never knew of LIDL
 
i'm in ireland we have both, and my god its a fonominon! if theres one thing irish people like doing than getting drunk its buying stuff cheap.
 
my mum was in it and apparintly a german manager decided to do a surprise inspection and REALLY gave out sh** to them in german and english. they like stuff efficent.

but i'd never touch their meat.
 
Lol the stuff is so cheap because they are not big name brands... as a student cheap is always what I go for... I get the crappest, worst tasting wine cause its like a quid cheaper :/
 
ever tried a marathon bar? its a disgusting copy of a snickers (or mars bar can't remember). it contains so so so so much sugar. I think that might be one of the reasons why i don't go there.

I've got the feeling my Avatar aroused some special feelings :D

I like Aldi, if you could not tell. Sure, they have some products you should really avoid (A chocolate bar called "Race" is supposed to be Mars but... meh.), but most stuff they have is high quality. Also, it is not true that they do not sell well-known brands. Most stuff they sell is really from some big company, but under another name. Nearly all of their sweets is made by Haribo, for example, it just does not say so on the product itself.
Also, currently they have soemthing called "Rosquisol Bistro Brötchen" (here in Germany at least). Do not buy this. I have. I have eaten it. Now I am addicted to that stuff, it's so... wonderful.... *sniff*

And by the way, their meat is fine ;)
