Week 1 Armed with my trusty shopping list I was very excited to start my 4-week Lidl shopping experience and put the store to its ultimate test! I have often popped into Lidl to pick up some bread, milk and other emergency essentials since its arrival in my local area of Stillorgan. However I have never attempted to do a full grocery shop there as I had this notion that I wouldn't be able to...

Week 1 My son is making is his First Communion this weekend and we are having the family back to our house afterwards for a party. I’ll be keeping it simple with a buffet and some quiches. The most time consuming part of making a quiche is the pastry, so imagine my delight when I spotted pre-made short-crust pastry in the refrigerator section in Lidl! Because it was refrigerated rather than...

Well, it's happened. April 21st came and went, and I've now turned 40 - it wasn't as bad as I was expecting! I'm not usually in anyway vain but, to be honest, I was a bit anxious about this particular birthday. I don't know whether it's a personal thing, a female thing or a silly thing, but I was silently counting down the months in dread, checking wrinkles and wondering if...

One of the things I never really thought about before I became a mum was family dinners. When you are just feeding yourself and you’re running in from work you’re able to literally chuck something in the oven and get on with it. But it's different when you've got kids. Not only do you have to think about what you’re going to cook, but whether the little ones are going to turn their...

Week 3 with 2 additional teenage guests from France in the house I really wasn't quite sure if €100 would do 8 of us! I ventured alone this week for my weekly shop to focus. With no calculator in hand off I went. This week I will admit to stocking up on burgers, chicken nuggets, pizzas, crisps and bakery goodies along with the norm. I was pleasantly surprised to find the fresh Inisvale...

I now feel like a regular at Lidl. I have been going to my two local branches for the last three weeks and am enjoying the experience and particularly, the savings. I love the bakery and the fresh fruit and veg sections, so this week I decided to explore some more of the meat and fish on offer. I got two rib eye steaks for the BBQ for €7.99. They were really tasty and tender. I am a big fan of...

There has been a robin in my garden every day for the last two weeks (or so it seems) - and I think it's a sign my dad is keeping an eye on me. I have had a few brief teary moments while making big decisions over the past few weeks: Do I have surgery? Do I not? Do I return to work or do I not? I've also been tired and I'm missing my family in England a lot; wishing they were here for...

I had quite an eventful Lidl shopping trip this week, in that I had to make two trips! I am usually a 'one big weekly shop' kind of mum but this week we had to make a mad premature dash to the cashier half-way through as my daughter desperately needed the bathroom all of a sudden! Although this sudden urge didn't come upon her until we had visited the ice-cream freezer section...I...

Great excitement in Lidl this week – I discovered an Italian range called “Italiamo” which I hadn’t noticed before and it’s absolutely gorgeous! I got a little carried away... I couldn’t resist. They do everything from black olive tapenade and sundried tomatoes to antipasti, amaretti biscuits and Italian coffee. It all looked very luxurious. I picked up some pasta: fettuccine, lasagne...

This week I headed off to the shops alone during school time. Eager with anticipation - could I feed a hungry house of 8 again this week? As the trolley filled fast and furious I was amazed how quickly I had become accustomed to shopping in Lidl. This week I was not seeking out items but quite literally the items were presenting themselves and jumping into my trolley. This week I bought an array...
