    Lidl kilts

    This Saturday 6th December, LIDL start their sale of kilts at £24.99 each plus kilt accessories. This is the second time LIDL have done this, earlier this year for Burns Night. I bought a Black Watch, the last time and I have worn it several times, remarkably good quality and heavy.

    Do you happen to know if that's any old bukhshee Lidl, or only the one by you?

    I'm not even sure, actually, if there is a Lidl anywhere near me, but if they're all doing this I could well trek around London and the South East looking for kilt-selling-German-supermarkets.

    The last time they did this it was only in their stores in Scotland and I would be surprised if they were doing it nationwide in the UK this time.

    Lidl kilts

    I would imagine it would only be in Scotland, the last time all kilts were sold out by about 9am

    For those in N. America, LIDL is a supermarket chain - German based I believe.

    They also retail many non-consumable items including hardware & clothing. You never quite know what they'll have on special.

    Slainte yall,

    OH! I thought this was perhaps a company who specialized in... wee kilts, perhaps for the little ones. You know, "little kilts".

    LIDL.

    Get it?

    Or something.

    When I first saw the title, I was thinking the same thing

    We have a chain of Aldi grocery stores in the Baltimore area that sells some german products. I believe that they are foreign based.

    I have been into our local Lidl several times, to buy stollon brod for Christmas.

    The various gingerbreads I can resist, but not the stollon.

    Just one slice I tell myself.

    Better go buy some more.

    They are quite useful shops, and have some really nice food. Frozen paella, and nasi goreng, frozen cakes, all sorts of tinned stuff and even fresh fruits and vegetables, all better quality than the standard supermarkets. They are opening more stores, I have noticed - taking over, lidl by lidl.

    They did not have the kilts last time, and there was no announcement of them - they usually have flyers for the special offers for the next three weeks pinned up, and I would have noticed kilts.

    It is a good excuse to go back there, though, just to make sure.
