my town has 2 aldis and 0 lidls
take a guess bruh

How do you pronounce the first one? LIE-dull? LID-del? le-DUL? We don't have those around me.

theres only one side

>>19068714
lidle like ladle but with an i

>>19068692
Aldi is genuinely quite nice, cheap and good quality, Lidl is about as cheap but they don't put the effort in to the customer experience and result is a nasty end product.

Lidl had this retarded thing where they did not implement an area where you can place the items into a bag
They just expected you to like grab everything from side somehow
The ceo was a bit of a retard

>>19068714

I looked for people saying Lidl on youtube and found this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCay_FiCWgw

>>19068692
I have no Aldi in my country

>>19068692
LidlCHADS and AldiGODS stand united against their common foe, the eternal ripoff store menace

>>19068809
What about Rewe? They have good coconut milk.

They both cool I guess.
I rarely buy from them though. I dont like their products.
I live in Italy if that matters.

i've got a lidl dick and it hurts aldi time

Lidl for dat bakery. It's really sad when Lidl has a good bakery while all American chains have shit ones.

>>19068703
lol
My fucking NEIGHBOURHOOD has two Aldi locations, each on either end of it, two miles apart on the same street. The closest Lidl? Fifteen miles away. Doesn't sound far, and it technically isn't, but that's 15 miles of either city traffic or on one of the five worst-congested highways in the US.

>>19068714
Properly, lee-dull is close. Americans say it that way because the stores constantly blare its own name over the speakers + the TV adverts shown here pronounce it that way, too.
Brits pronounce it like "little," only swapping the Ts for Ds.

>>19068998
>Lidl for dat bakery
my nigga
i love these lil niggas like you wouldnt believe

trader joe's mogs them both
it's weird I have pretty much every grocery chain now
maybe goyslop is dying...

That means you're a filthy northerner.

Always been more of a Kaufland guy myself, but they recently opened a Lidl right next to my place, so ive been visiting it more often. Its alright, but I feel like its more about "meme foods", like something you dont eat everyday and just wanna try out once or twice because of their themed weeks. Got some pretty decent indian tikka masala slopfrom their asian week few days ago, easy to prepare, just microwave it and wa-la
for everyday groceries I still prefer regular chains

>My nearest Lidl is 1.5 km away
>My nearest Aldi is 2 km away
>The only two shops close to me are Norma and Rewe
It's over... isn't it....

>>19069026
Sadly, bakerybro, I live in the US so no hot dog rolls or sausage rolls for me, but the Lidl bakeries here sell decent baguettes with an actual crust (unlike the common "baguette" sold elsewhere here) on the cheap as well as pizza, calzones and other good shit.
I would fuck up dem hot dog rolls, tho.

>>19069050
As long as Anon's not from Hull, some town in the dales or, god fucking forbid, Newcastle, it's fine. Can't understand a lick people from there say. I have to really concentrate to get wtf Lucy Beaumont is saying at me when I watch Meet The Richardson's and you can forget about Geordies altogether.

>>19068692
have both in my town and both have different items I prefer, so no real winner. also both have meme so called "Restposten" area, so I can get funny items

>>19068692
We have 3 Aldis and 2 Lidls

I prefer Lidl

>>19069077
At least you have it in your country kek

>>19069104
>Sadly, bakerybro, I live in the US so no hot dog rolls or sausage rolls for me
damn, that sucks, those weird small pastries and their donuts/muffins they sell are the best part about their bakery, perfect quick and cheap breakfast every time. They have those great mini """pizzas""" for example, which is basically some flat bread with some gouda, salami chunks and i guess some kind of tomato sauce, but they are great and cost a few cents, could demolish like 5+ at once. Not that much of a fan of their regular baked stuff(breads and whatnot), always preferred Billa for that one if its gotta be a supermarket, but those dont exist outside of some EU countries I think. Still, never as good as something from your local bakery, but im lucky that I have one right next to me

>>19069139
lol
I went to Billa ONCE. Was visiting cousins in Altstaetten and we crossed the border into Austria because everything is cheaper. Was nice.
I'm from Italy, tho, and while I understand and can read German, I'm self conscious when it comes to speaking or writing it since the Swiss side of my family constantly take the piss out of me for how I say shit.
>great pizza for a few cents
Yeah, AmeriLidl has "pizza twists" which are also delicious and cheap. Most other things at Lidl can such a shit, but the bakery is superb.

>>19069182
>pizza twists
i dont think ive ever seen those in the lidl bakeries here, but if they are anything like pic related, that they should be pretty good. this shit is surprisingly good for a frozen slop factory food, the whole "Deluxe" lidl line actually is

>>19069199
Very similar look. I was even gonna describe it as a pizza version of Georgian khachapuri but figured few people know wtf that is. What you posted looks like Christmas dinner khachapuri.

>>19068692
I take the third position

>>19069222
>I take the third position
Anal?

>Buy Lidl shoes
>Sell them
>Make over $500
You can literally make money of Lidl's deals, that's how good it is.

>>19068737
>>19068787
Ah, so the non-English i, as in Wii.
Thanks to all the pronunciation advice, I sincerely had never heard it spoken out loud before.

for me it's Penny, the superior german discount store

>>19069222
Based and George Jenkins pilled

>>19069913
God, this place is absolutely fucking disgusting. Im so glad it went bankrupt in my country, literally didnt know a single person who actually went there, easily the worst germanoid meme chain from what ive seen

>>19068692
wal mart

>>19068692
It's a moot point now since Aldi are closing ALL their stores in my country, but I usually went to Lidl anyway simply because the prices are the same but the Lidl app sometimes gives me free stuff. I have literally filled my pantry with non-perishables that I got for free that way. For the coming apocalypse, you know.
I will say, that at least in my town the Aldi employees were a lot more competent.

>>19068722
He cute

>>19069922
in my country it's pretty good, very similar to Lidl and Aldi for prices and quality.

>>19068722
it's missing the Lidl christmas jumper

>>19070115
it was supposed to be I guess, but it was always a fucking shitshow, dirty, products misplaced everywhere, etc
at least after they went out actually more lidls opened on their place, so thats good i guess

>>19068703
Same

>>19068692
Please come to Canada.
I miss their cheap, fresh pastries. NoFrills only has packaged garbage.

>>19068692
SOUL vs SOULLESS

>>19068692
Lidl, mainly for their pastries. Aldi has those 90 cents AHA pizza which are best in market for when you want to save money though.

No Aldi where I live but Lidl has some delicious ham and cheese Croissants. They are best when the store opens and they are still warm. Also Lidl has my favourite brand of Hummus

>>19068984
god fucking damnit

Aldi has excellent cheap aged Gouda, I periodically raid the stores and buy them up, hehe. Picture not entirely related, can't fine the Gouda one.

>>19068692
Lidl provides me with excellent chocolate, and chocolate coulants. There's no match.

>all these people going on about Lidl's various baked goods
They must be delicious. Shane no Lidl near me. : (
Can i suggest to the company they open one here?

lidl more like slopl

I am not going to stand in line for ten minutes to pay for my groceries. Both are aweful because of this.

>>19068692
One day I went to lidl, I was really, really hungry.

>>19068692
I have no idea what LIDL is but Aldi is for poorfags. I go to Kroger.

>>19071752
>over sustainability concerns
Holy fucking shit. Get to know your local farmers, friends.

>>19068692
lidl

>>19071827
Get out, shart. This is a euro thread

I don't like poors or brown people so neither.

both are based. i prefer lidl for lunch their backingshop is superiour but i prefer hofer (aldi) for the weekly shopping since the food is higher quality from my experience

>>19071843
Aldi is a Euro thing? That explains a lot. They're disgusting.

>>19070130
>Favorina
Best chocolate right after Lindt.

Wait a minute. Lidl is currently rebranding itself, especially given the new Lidl sneakers, shirt and slippers; they’re trying to insert themselves in the market in a similar way to TARGET in the US… where u go to find anything. This is related to the fresh juice squeezing machine.
Aldi…comes with many differences, especially the quality of products / per price. In Italy, product from UK US Belgium France and Spain are SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper in Aldi rather than in a Lidl

>>19073082
You’re a LIDL shill

How much does LIDL pay you?

>>19068692
Why is Germany trying to conquer the ghetto grocery market in the US?

>>19072000 (witnessed)

>>19068692
I visit both regularly in a 4:1 ratio

>>19068703
i know them aldis are burning

>>19073087
A lidl.

>>19068984

>>19068692
My mother worked at Lidl in the late 90s, they had them memorize the prices because they didn't want to buy a fucking price-tag scanner.

>>19068692
>Which side are you on?

my local lidl always smells like shit, like actual feces. so i never go there.

anyone in the UK remember the school-life death sentence shopping here was back in the 2000s? We didn't usually shop there but sometimes it was convenient and I refused to get out of the car

>>19068692
I love the LIDL water, just too good to pass

I go to ACME for the occasional 12 pack of bitch beer and deli meats/cheeses. I go to Aldi for literally everything else.

>>19068998
they have lidl in America?

>>19076032
birch* though some of you may say it's for bitches.

>>19076032
I go to ACME for the occasional 12 pack of birch beer and whatever shit they give me in digital coupons. I go to Asian supermarkets for literally everything else.

>>19068703
Is your town Leighton Buzzard?

>>19070130
It's freaky how much that guy looks like me, even down to the long eyelashes. Biggest diff is his curly hair. Mine is straight.

>>19071496
Lidl carries Murcian goat cheese, which is infinitely superior to any gouda.

Aldi for the smoked.tofu, Lidl for the vegan chocolate spread with ethicaly certified palm oil

lidl and aldi are less than a mile apart here
lidl looks much nicer, has a very good bakery, two aisles of dollar general junk, and routinely runs ads for really great deals without stocking the product
aldi seems cheaper overall, has fewer SKUs, and still does the cart-for-a-quarter thing even though nobody carries change

>>19076528
>ethicaly certified palm oil
they don't whip the trees if they under produce?
ngmi

>>19076554

>>19076528
>Aldi for the smoked.tofu
o shit, that sounds good

>>19076035
Yeah, it sucks though.

>>19068692
>Which side are you on?
Definitely Lidl. The parking lot is more convenient.

>>19068692
I don't know what either of those are

>>19068692
What"s that, some Europoor '"food" hovel?
Just go to Wal-Mart lmao

>>19076522
Pretty sure that's Aldi (hard white), which is also good, but nowhere near as good as aged Gouda.

>>19077417
Wall-Shart couldn't even make it in Europe because we eat real food in normal portions LMAO

>>19077859
>Pretty sure that's Aldi
idk if Aldi dies, too, but Lidl definitely has it. And Aldi is poopshits, anyway.

>>19077859
>Wall-Shart couldn't even make it in Europe because we eat real food in normal portions LMAO
Walmart is called Tesco in Europe.

>>19068984

>>19077866
lol

>>19077893
>proves herself wrong
>Inexplicably giggles about it
Odd behaviour, homie.

>>19077896
1. Tesco isn't Wall-Shart
2. A bunch of stores in Czechia and UK = you are irrelevant

>>19077915
>Tesco isn't Wall-Shart
False.
>Czechia isn't in Europe
Also false.

>>19077920
>Tesco isn't Wall-Shart
True.
>Czechia isn't in Europe
Said nobody

Try again!

>>19077941
Tesco is Walmart. So are Coop, Biedronka, Fenn's and Carrefour.
>nobody said Czechia isn't in Europe
Yuh-huh.

People always rave about Lidlington bakeries but everyone I've been too looks like a garbage dump of crumbs and fumbled pastries. I see kids just walk up lick donuts and put them back. I ain't touching that shit

>>19077957
Maybe where you are. What i am, the pastries and breads are good and parents don't allow children to lick things at random. Perhaps try living somewhere civilised.

>>19069077
>2km isn't close
lazy cunt

>>19069077
>1 mile away
That's like a 15 minute walk or a 5 minute bike ride or a 2 minute drive. How is that not close?

>>19078174
>>19078008
Lmao, I walk 2 miles just to get to work then 2 miles back, its nothing, I even enjoy the daily walks for the free exercise and it clears my head on the way back, nice after sitting on my ass

>>19078268
One mile for me, and I'm an amputee. People should try walking two miles daily with only one decent leg before complaining that something is too far.

RIP king ;_;
Utterly shitmogs every store ive ever been to in my entire life and i had the honor of living by it for 6 years as a student. One year later and a move and everything costs twice as much.

>>19068692
LIDL, mostly because here ALDI stores are all 40+ years old with layout, decor, hardware and staff that reflects it.

>>19068984
hahahaha it's funny because lidl sounds like little and aldi sounds like all the so it's said like "I've got a little dick and it hurts all the time"!
