Lidl in Dulwich?

[Sue]

I'd love to see a Lidl nearer (to me) than the one at the end of Bellenden Road.

Their food and non-food items are fantastic value for money.

Olive Oil, Cashew/Pistachios nuts, Cheese for me.

The german sausage is supposed to be good but not tried it :)

yes and brown sauce great you must try it

[Jeremy]

I can imagine a dollop of brown sauce might work, but not baked beans. Unless you're a student.

[Forrest Wheatey]

Nice. I always liked their themed discounts. The more shops, the marrier.

you will never know till you try, Baked Beans lots of brown sauce and loads of black pepper try it and let us all know what you think,

I think at first some would put their noses in the air so to speak. More often or not they would be the ones who would probably sneakily shop there. Why not the old Iceland site it would make nice mix!

[Earl Aelfheah]

everyone seems to rave about Lidl- I don't get it. I hate supermarkets generally and Lidl seems like a particularly depressing one.

[ratty]

Queues are long, but produce is cheaper and better generally.

I prefer Aldi - better wine!

[Sue]

I knew some extremely well off people about ten years back who shopped in Lidl, in particular (at that time) for the parmesan.

My reaction was "Lidl?!?!?!?!"

But when I actually went there, I could see why.

Though TBH if I had that amount of money I wouldn't go out of my way to shop there, however good value the parmesan was :))

I have never been to a Lidl Store but they all seem to cater for that weekly shop and have car parks.

Don't think it would suit Lordship lane for that very reason and certainly not for any social class issues.

I shop at the Lidl in Peckham with a shopping trolley.

The Co-Op in Lordship Lane doesn't have a car park, does it?

Cool your boots man. ASDA on Rye Lane is where it's at. Dig those groovy bargains.

Yes, they may well buy weekend shopping Bread, Milk, Meat . ??

But a weekly shop where you buy Food for the family for the whole week, Washing powder, Toilet rolls,

Kitchen towels, Bleach .. wine, cases of beer. and much more you are likely to need to take the car.

so take the car then most of the Lidl Store,s have a car park.and it was only about 35 years ago when the shoppers used to get the shopping at all the shops butchers,bakers,greengrocers.off licence for your beer and wine,and most shoppers had no car,and this was better times.

Yes, that's right (bit more than 35 years ago 1980 though.) but this thread is about a Lidl in E.D.

There is no space for one with a car park.

Asda on Rye Lane had a bit of a re-fit last year, and is now marginally less grim than the Lidl.

[uncleglen]

Since Sainsbury's do price comparisons with Asda...I'm staying with Sainsbury's

[Dulwich Born And Bred]

I'll stick to Ocado online .
