Lidl (video)

[Dover]

Very funny. However I do shop there from time to time.

Newhaven has a Lidl (no surprise there), always good deals on lager (no surprise again), also good deals on Marstons Pedigree

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Actually Lidl might be cheap but the quality is consistently average or better, the Germans don't sell crap.

Exactly.

Cant beat Lidl and Aldi

And I thought unimaginative, smug reductions of the working class in 'comedy' disappeared with Little Britain.

I'd stake my flat on you being middle class.

 

[portslade seagull]

Thought that was quite funny

Too right!

Too right!

Rather a catchy tune too!!

When I've stayed with friends in Germany, they and their friends (mostly people owning their own businesses) all seem to shop either in Aldi or Lidl. They certainly don't regard them as only fit for the local equivalent of chavs. Roll on the Shoreham store.

Give over. If it's ok for Catherine Tate to send up middle class yummy mummies and comedians since the dawn of time to satirise Royalty, aristos and Tim Nice But Dim types then what's wrong with laughing at chavs?

It just seems a little less savoury to me when humour is aimed downwards. I guess it's harmless enough, if painfully unfunny.

You're absolutely right, I consider myself hopelessly middle class; however, much in the same way that a white person can take issue with racism, or a straight person with homophobia, I don't think my class means I cannot criticise misrepresentation and stereotyping of those who are socioeconomically disadvantaged. But I'll lighten up, it's no biggie.

Hey, nice Paint skills you've got there in your avatar. Have you considered a career in touching up pictures? You could be the photographic equivalent of the legendary Gif dude bowdown

It seems all those hours of hard work are finally being recognised.

 

[BrickTamland]

Aldi is the best super market out there. Most of the people who shop elsewhere due to thinking it's 'chavy' are the stupid ones, paying more for the same or worse stuff. Jokes on them

Public Service Announcement.

Lidl currently selling 12 bottles of independent brewery ale for £14.99.

Oh dear, get over yourself! I actually thought it was very funny. I use their branch at Burgess Hill quite a lot, and if you don't mind not recognising the brand names of most of the products, it's very good value. I suspect that if it wasn't for chains like Lidl and maybe Aldi, some of the less well off amongst us wouldn't be able to afford their weekly shopping.
