A bargain.... advertising....

In Lidl this morning, they had packets of Knorr 16 stock cubes, for 99p. In Morrison’s they were still £1.72 for 8 or reduced from £3.20 to £2.00, packets of 20.

So, our 3 packets from Lidl, totally 48 cubes was £2.97. Two and a half of the large packets from Morrison’s, would be 50 cubes for £5. A clear win for Lidl methinks.

On the way home, we called in at Farmfoods. I want to try Ruby on whitefish, as a change from Mackeral. Dog section fish can be quite expensive. In Farmfoods, certain fish was on special offer of 3 bags for £10. They didn’t have a flat fish we wanted for ourselves, so We bought 3 bags of boned fillets of Alaskan pollack, weighing in total 2.7kg for £10.00. A small reduction than other supermarkets but way cheaper than a dog food equivalent. Also, a nice treat for us.

  1. Betty absolutely loves fish, possibly even more so than meat...

    Bargain stock cube buy from Lidl, I'll have to look out for their cubes next time we're in there. Farmfoods I find is a bit hit and miss, some things we like, others we don't.

    1. Ruby had fresh mackerel today and for the second time after having it, threw up! Hope she fares better with white fish.

  2. Sadly we don't have a Lidl or a Farmfoods but we do bring a shop back when we go to the mainland. I have found the cheapest stock cubes were in Home Bargains, last time we visited.
