"With a sleek, space-saving design and a classic black finish, it’s the gift that keeps on giving", Aldi said.

How can I save money when shopping at Lidl?

Lidl reduces items at the start of the day and the best deals can be found between 7am to 8am, when most stores open.

Shoppers can often find cooked meats, salmon fillets and breads reduced by 30% or more.

Not only does Lidl have its own range of reasonably priced alcohol, it also has its own knock-offs of branded favourites – so say cheers to its bargain booze.

Everyone knows about the "Middle of Lidl" – it's here where you'll find a load of random stuff that you didn't realise you need, at decent prices.

But if you are hoping to avoid spending more than you planned, you can check what will be in the "Middle of Lidl" on the supermarket's website in advance.

The Middle of Lidl is refreshed every Thursday and Sunday.

Shoppers can also keep tabs on what's appearing in the "Pick of the Week" section on the Lidl website.
