I’m laughing so much at “the crazy middle aisle” because, being German, it’s so normal to me. 😂 They’re very strategic about it, too! They always start the year out with workout gear and clothes because everyone is making a New Year’s resolution to get in shape. That’s then followed by home improvement stuff as everyone gives up on the work outs and goes “well, we can at least paint the living room for the new year”. The end of school holidays brings a flood of stationary and so on. 😂

I’ve been Lidl’s no. 1 fan for the last ten years. In Portugal they change the middle aisle every Monday and Thursday. The kitchen appliances and the tools are fabulous, German quality. For Nespresso lovers, they have compatible capsules and the coffee is amazing and half the price. Their muesli is also my favourite. And I could go on and on. 😘

Lidl’s cuts of meat, I find, look good but then when all the water seeps out you are left with very thin cut chops etc. probably, if you weighed them, you may be paying for water. Also, using the same branding colours are my main objections (same as Aldi too). When I first shopped there, I was gutted to find the mayonnaise I had bought was not the brand I thought it was - a knock off no less. . Same applied to a lot of their goods - knock offs!!! Once I realised what they were doing, I only bother with the shop if I’m stuck for something. The one good item I found was their oat biscuits - not the sweet ones but the ones for cheese etc. they are just as good as the M&S ones, which are now £1.50 a packet and Aldi’s are about 55/60p a packet. It’s a bit of a scam going in there - just got to look at what you’re buying.

I've been watching you for years and years and this channel is so entertaining! No matter what video you make you have the ability to make it entertaining because YOU are so amazing and fun to listen to/watch❣️

I'm from Manchester but currently living in Morocco and so watched this for the nostalgia, haha. Thanks Sophie. 💗

Sophie, At least here in the U.S., the pre-bagged veg is usually a safe bet because it gets washed before it’s bagged. P.S., the Lidl here looks exactly like the Lidl you shopped at. Yes, they are German so you’ll see things that are not normally in the regular grocery. Lidl’s breads are really good-they have those grainy whole breads.

Hi dear Sophie, I've been following you for years but I lust admit I'm absolutly thrilled by this New channel. Being an F1 fan please feel free to do more contains about cars ❤😘

I literally laughed out loud at the "teacher shoes", welding helmet and other commentary. Great video.

Lidls bakery is great Sophie sweets, I’m addicted to the pain au chocolat ❤❤😂

Enjoying David getting involved too!

Love this so much Sophie. I love the bakery section in Lidl although my waistline doesn’t ❤ Love David on the videos, more comedy gold with the comment on the protein items 😊😊❤

Love the video. Could you do a follow up, of what you thought of the groceries you’ve bought?

You can absolutely do a full shop in Lidl! Their cleaning products and toiletries are pretty good too. Having had a house in Spain for over 30 years I recognise a lot of these brands and Cien is excellent and lots of these brands have been around for decades. PS just picked up a Paella set in the “weird” isle (same branch as you went to Sophie) it included a paella pan, paella rice, oil etc and was a bargain - not sure if it will work on my induction hob, but hey I think it was £9! 🤗

Interesting hearing your views on Lidl. I would be intrigued to know your verdict on the quality after trying it. I think Lidl is great for the middle isle, as can get some really good random bargains on kitchenware/tools, which i think the quality is great on. But when it comes to their food, i am not impressed. Things are cheap, but for a reason i believe. Such as a tin of tomatoes will be way less than another supermarket, but its half tomatoey water. And whenever me and my partner have eaten their food for a couple of days in a row, we get what we call Lidl stomach, where we just have digestive issues/bloating and i can only imagine its due to cheaper ingredients being used in their products. As long as you stick to whole foods like produce and meat, its fine. But i always avoid anything pre made in there now

I can do a full shop for food as I cook everything from scratch, mostly, so not bothered about brands, except for catfood, as my cats will only eat Gourmet Perle 😂 and when the Lidl app you get loads of freebies. Glad you gave it a try!

"Lidl Chainsaw Massacre"--I couldn't stop laughing, that was brilliant. Love the videos when you and David go shopping, keep them coming LOL! In the US, the middle aisle in Aldi is known as the "Aisle of Shame"--because you end up with all sorts of assorted things jumping into your cart and spend $100 when you only intended to spend $35.

Thanks for taking us with you!

"David said it! Not me" 🤣🤣🤣 Loving the new channel, Sophie!! xo

Hi Sophie & David love the new channel!

Hi Sophie, the crazy "middle aisle" at "Lidl", established in Germany originally, is always good for bargains. The organic eggs are very good, Milbona Cottage Cheese ( royal blue lid; also fat-free with light blue lid ) is produced in Bavaria and it tastes good, too. Often there are special offers regarding really good tasting German/French/Italian sausages, cheeses, special food for "Oktoberfest"; try the very good German "Beer Sausage" ( looking like a round small ball, doesn't contain beer at all, it's just the name ), the incredibly delicious "Madeleines" by "Duc De Cœur", ( small French sponge cakes, in a plastic bag ) as well. Also you get organic vegetables ( org. potatoes, e.g. ), organic fruits, organic mince and organic steaks. The Italian "Italiamo"-Aperitivo, in 98 ml-bottles, called "Rosso", is red, tastes exactly like "Campari", but it's completely alcohol-free! I'm living in Munich-Germany and in Dublin-Ireland; in both countries shopping at "Lidl" is always great, not too expensive and good bargains to find. I love both channels of yours, dear Sophie, and I'm looking forward to the next handbag video. Dear greetings, Suschka Susanne.🙋‍♀️👜❤️

I recently discovered Lidl as my local Sainsbury's closed. I love it! And I can do my main shop there. I get some things from M&S still (6 free range eggs at M&S are £1.25) - some veggies I get from M&S still, and I do buy chicken from M&S. But you're spot on, the high quality eggs at Lidl will be cheaper than M&S. I noticed Sainsbury's quality went way down after the pandemic (I spent the pandemic in Australia, so I noticed a difference when I came back). And yes to the fact it's like shopping in Europe - spot on! Also, for future vids, you could go to a farmer's market. I have one and I get lots of fresh things from there (6 lemons for a pound! bargains at farmers markets are truly great). So important to support local farmers directly where possible.

Lidls is lethal. The bakery is my everest. I would point out that I fund the fruit and veg doesn't always last as long in the fridge as other places.

I loved this video! This was such a fun one! I really hoped you would do a taste test and tell us your verdict how everything qualitywise was, so maybe you can do that too next time? But I really like these kinds of videos!

Absolutely love this chanel. Looking forward to more goodies from you guys. Love you!

"What weird middle aisle? I dont see a weird mid... FOUND IT!" 😂 There are definite savings to be made, but I just can't give up my Burford Browns! 🥚 Have a great week, Sophie! 💕 x

Sounds like pretty good prices..our Aldis has ribeyes 2 for similar prices,grain fed beef,keep up the good work,like to see a couple nurseries,I bet you have lovely ones,really enjoyable with you and David❤❤❤

We live in US but my oldest son lives in Dublin so I do shop Lidl there and love it. The scones are delicious, the produce is very nice and the prices are great plus the weird aisle is always fun. Love your new channel!

Okay, I am a high school teacher in the US and I have never in my 57 years of life ever seen a teacher wear the shoes David attributed to a teacher! I am going to be in London this summer and I’m going to be doing some asking around! 😂

Lidl is my favourite supermarket. Lidl has interesting weird food. I love Lidl & M&S. Hate Tesco and Sainsburys as they are no boring and generic. The fruits and salad in Lidl is always mouldy though

Loved this shopping experience with you both and your banter!

Hello Sophie, greetings from Germany! I’ve been a follower on your luxury channel and only recently discovered your new channel. I thoroughly enjoyed your venture into the world of German supermarkets. If you have an emergency, desperately needing a welding machine, a desk lamp, a pair of stockings, 2 dozen eggs and ready meal, Lidl and Aldi have you covered. LOL!!! I would love to hear, how you liked the quality of your groceries. Over here in Germany, it is a bit hit and miss, but over all, it is a decent quality. I have a friend living in the Cotswolds, who’s a huge Lidl fan! Thank you so much for all of your videos! X

It’s funny because we have a couple stores like this in Canada, but they’re known to be like this all the time, they don’t change every week. That I find hilarious. The adventure of it.

Lidl and Aldi are german. It feels weird to watch you be astonished walking through the market like aliens. 😅 As a german I grew up with Lidl and Aldi and „the middle“ is so common for us. Even the prices are common, we are dazzled when we are on vacation in GB and see the prices in your supermarkets, especially for meet or milk products. As in the most countries (Italy, France…). The products Aldi and Lidl sell are mostly pretty good, so parkside tools are very liked, and the organic vegetables or eggs or even the organic meets are really good quality. The bakery is not worst than in other supermarkets, some products are actually so good. As long as you are not leaning to a special brand, you sure can buy there everything you need for daily use. Why spend more money on everyday things as necessary?

aldi and lidls toiletries are amazing and cheap. the quality has been compared to some very pricy brands. def worth trying out...the fresh baked bread and rolls are also lovely...their coffee-so I'm told is really good and cheap compared to the more expensive shops

What about an antique store visit? I like seeing what the same stores as the U.S.A. are like in other countries 😊

We're getting an Aldi's in the city I live and I'm so happy. Gotta go down the crazy aisle lol. Lidle looks very similar.

Wow great prices and produce and 'middle' . Cool store! 🎉

This is hilarious Sophie! Very funny, please continue to do these type of videos!

Came here after watching Sophie's Aldi video to compare. In this video there is a cart noise in the back and Sophie says "it's a bit noisy" i started smiling thinking "gurl...wait till u get to Aldi" 😂

Lidl is by far my favorite because of their bakery, fruit/veg and meat. All the shelf stable food there either has really great ingredients or total trash chemicals. Lots of reading the labels for me. I have found some amazing deals there though ie organic baby clothes on clearance- so cheap and a patio furniture set

Loved it!

I’m a teacher and I’m laughing at the teacher shoe comment 😂😂😂 most teachers are much more stylish nowadays thankfully but we do still get the odd one! Xx

This is funny 😊well to do people going lidi .Great funny video

I love Lidl. They have great stuff for good price. They also have teamed weeks, so it can be Mediterranean or French or whatever week and it will be foods inspired by that country/region so it offers variety and opportunity to try something new and different. Produce is good, as are cold cuts and frozen stuff, and their dairy line Milbona and bakery are great. I'd recommend high protein pudding for a treat.... On the other hand, I've only been in Aldi 2 times and wasn't able to understand what's what, everything was just weird. I live in Denmark, it might be different in other countries.

Hi Sophie and David! I'd love for you to go to the Sunday market in Camden... I don't know about you, but I've been there and would love to hear your comments on it, it would be fun IMO. Also I would love it if you went and took a look at River Island, some things aren't bad at all!

Sophie you are hilarious! X

Good Tuesday morning Sophie & David.David, in New Zealand we call your "flat peaches" doughnut peaches. They are aimed at children as they fit in their lunch boxes & ...... Yes you guessed it ... DOUGHNUTS 😁 Yet another great video. Jane in New Zealand 🇬🇧🇳🇿

I love this new channel

The middle aisle of Lidl is "the aisle of dreams", can't resist the DIY😂

In lidl UK, I love their low fat cheddar, their south African pink lady apples (avoid Spanish ones), ice creams on sticks, dishwasher tablets and dishwasher cleaning stuff. I love the entire cheese section in Lidl in Ireland, it's fantastic.

I unfortunately had to move away from my Lidl & I miss it immensely. I would get all my shopping from Lidl & be quite decadent when there was a particular country being featured in the store. French week would be my favourite - I would stock up on on French produce, Cheese, Pate, snails, fish soup, wine & Cremant. Compared to Aldi which sells family favourites & more - Lidl hits the 'Waitrose' shopper who like Slightly different tastes. The Charcuterie & cheese in Lidl is excellent - nothing but compliments from me. Sorry - the teacher shoe, I thought more Christian youth leader or trendy vicar, maybe a nun who plays guitar at events, schools, I couldn't help myself - the need to add to your description of the 'traisandal' was too much - I couldn't stop myself. Great vlog.

I like Lidl, there is one that I often go to and there is one that is always a chaous whenever I go there 😅a lot depends on the location and the manager.

Great random content. Maybe show what you've prepared from the shopping and rate the quality of food you got compared to usual stuff you get from M&S.

Love how excited David is at these adventures 😂 that middle isle is wild for sure. Not sure when the mood would strike for a welding helmet and eggs at the same time 😂

Loving this new Channel ❤

Hi Sophie I really love the new channel! Could you please make a video about how you take care of your rabbit?

May i say inreally enjoy your new channel. I love how you include David in it. He is really smart and his comments always make me laugh.Also Lidl in Spain is not so well sorted. I never go there is a huge letdown.

Very lovely tour of Aldi ❤😊

Would love all the UK drug store tours and all the products, cosmetics, toiletries, etc., there. AND yes! What David said--one of the east end markets! Thanks Sophie!

I think it might be worth exploring videos about more than just shopping. No judgement, I definitely enjoyed your other channel, and I totally support your shift into more than just luxury. Your personality is so cool and down to earth and you have that special quality which makes you seem like you're "on our side," so to speak. My absolute fav videos on your other channel were actually the ones where you tell anecdotes about your experiences(ghosts, being a broke student, how you ended up in your career), and I would love to see more about your thoughts and feelings about life, and living it. Like you have a sort of 'cafe philosophy' stream of consciousness that is really fun to watch/listen to. In response to some of your other videos, I too have sold almost all of my luxury goods this year(3 of 4 Chanel backpacks, 6 of 7 LV items, etc..). I have collected select antique oil paintings for like 6 or 7 years and they bring me so much more joy than the luxury goods. I look at them/am in front of them so much more frequently than the bags and I REALLY am so much satisfied with this personal shift in how I use my funds and time.

😂 so funny, you’re looking at toiletries and we can hear hubby saying, “weed burner?” And “pan” in the background - just made me giggle!

The daily telegraph does good food comparison reviews, and the lidl/ aldi stuff is hit and miss - but can often score as well as waitrose / sainsbury. Its just remembering which one do score well!

Free range does not mean what you think. It means they have access to outdoors once every 12 weeks . One foot of uncovered space open to the weather so they can put a label on the eggs and raise the price

This is awful :( I think the only way to guarantee that the hens have a nice life is when you keep them yourself. We have friends that have done this and their eggs are so fresh, very different to the supermarket xx

I loved this video!! I would really love if you also showed us the meals you make with the shopping afterwards, and how it tastes too, like the steaks! Or even from your Waitrose video, I’d love to see a little taste test portion at the end. 🩷

Oh the handsoap knock offs are really good!

Would you be able to do a video where you visit the north and maybe look at the lifestyle differences/cost differences ! I’m from the north east and now work for a London company and can’t believe how much my colleagues have to pay for things

Fun trip💞 How about gardening? do you have a garden? Also, made me giggle when you said about the sandals, 'those aren't very good , oh, dear!'😂

❤ Lidl… they make their own genuine Greek Yoghurt and it’s just as good as Fage

Hello Sophie, I am a subscriber of both of your channels and I like both. I am from germany and go grocery shopping in Aldi or Edeka, sometimes Lidl. I really like the organic soymilk from Lidl.❤ Could you show us your workout routine? Or what you normally make for Dinner? Maybe a Video how you stay fit and slim? I‘d love that. ❤

Cien is the homebrand of Lidl. Also well known in Germany.

You should gift David a Pelican...that way he can always have a massive bill 😂😂😂

I am impressed! I have heard some quite negative thoughts on Lidl but those fresh vegetables looked fresh! Thank you for the tip about package salad. Time will tell but for the moment I am being cautious! Thank you for the video.

The teacher shoes😂😂😂fantastic

Please can you do a taste test with some of your Lidl finds vs. M&S or Waitrose 🙂

I didn’t know we have them in US, and we have one near me, about 5 minutes!

Thanks for taking us to Lidl ! David is a really good shopper😊Teacher Shoes” was hilarious 😂 How was the Pinot Grigio ? And the steak ? Was it good ? Yeah, look forward to seeing the market shopping ❤

Hey Sophie! Here in Germany Lidl is one of the most popular supermarket and I felt the variety of products and the construction looked quite similar to our supermarkets. I go there on a regular basis and prices are pretty good. And you might be surprised that the quality of the Lidl products like "Cien" do have an excellent reputation and very often better quality than the original which is proved by independent authorities like Stiftung Warentest.

Love these new videos and the breadth of what you’re covering across your channels, because a swathe of us mix it up with a luxury purchase alongside a shop at Lidl…and another time a trip to Matalan with a food shop at Waitrose or farm shop. It would be good with food shop videos to keep some foods as “control products” so you can really compare price and quality between each supermarket. I actually rate Waitrose meat and fish quality above Lidl but I think fruit and veg is better at Lidl…especially with price and regularity of purchase…

Lol 😂glad youll both go back david certainly liked it you both will save a pound or two as well even the wealthy are feeling the pinch thank you for this utube i live in Australia and i aint to proud to shop at aldis its good to see three or 4 bags under a hundred dollars ❤

I love shopping at Lidl, even my parents, my dad's LIDL number one fan LOL We do shop grocery and other needs/ stuff from other supermarkets but here in Malta Lidl is very very good! Much love!

Hope you washed those strawberries especially well.. thats usually where the e coli outbreak happens here (in Canada).

I love Aldi and Lidl. Before I began shopping at either one, I hated grocery shopping, and went as infrequently as possible. But after I discovered Lidl and Aldi, I am in either one of them at least twice a week, sometimes even 5 times, so I have to rotate between 3 different Aldi's and two Lidl locations, so that they dont think I am homeless or something. I just Love being in there.

In the US aldi offers more organic and non GMO product than US produces. Prices are far better. I do everything I can from Aldi and do a much smaller shop for anything i cant find. Only total fail is the pet food. The center isle is called the Isle of Shame, and products go viral. Lots of fun.

I have an ALDI and a LIDL close to the holiday's house (too remote for a big supermarket, you have to drive for 10m to get to one of those), so I "know" them well. Usually, the fresh produce is local, so the quality depends of where you live. I cannot speak for the fish and meat, but I'm not a fan. The milk derivatives are usually good. The bread is the usual supermarket bread, the dought is shipped there. This is the same for every supermarket, even the high-end ones. Only a "true" bakery does them differently. The green hand wash (which yours doesn't have) is a banger. The crackler's aisle is a banger as well, but you have to find what you like.

“Lidl" is a German discount supermarket chain. The name "Lidl" is derived from the surname of the company's founder, Josef Schwarz. He established the first Lidl store in 1930 in Germany. Lidl is owned by the The Schwarz Group, a German multinational retailer that operates stores under the Lidl and Kaufland brands. It is the largest European retailer and the fourth-largest retailer in the world by revenue.

Dieter Schwarz, Josef Schwarz’ son, bought the right to use the name „Lidl“ from a painter and teacher, Ludwig Lidl. In 1858 the first Lidl opened in Heilbronn, Germany, and Josef Schwarz worked for the company. He made a career and the company was named Lidl & Schwarz. The markets they run were named „Handelshof“, later „Kaufland“. When his son Dieter started to do his own career, he could not use the name Lidl & Schwarz for his discount markets. So he bought the name from the teacher, because he did not want to name his shops „Schwarzmarkt“, what means black market…😉 When Josef Schwarz died in 1977, Dieter Schwarz took over Lidl&Schwarz, and now there are the full range supplier Kaufland and the discounter Lidl, since 1989 expanding in over 30 countries even in the US.

Sophie, lidl bakery is iconic hahaha you’ve been missing out. Quality is amazing too.

This was so interesting Sophie, I have done my weekly shop at my local Lidl virtually every week for the past few years. I get almost all my fruit and veg there, but couldn’t do a complete shop there so do top up with other things in other shops as well. Whilst some flock to the middle isles every week for the bargains, I find they are only bargains if you actually NEED the items 😂. I also find that I get used to enjoying a certain item and then they suddenly stop stocking it and you never see it again. P.S. please tell David that what’s in the lookalike Molton Brown bottles is “definitely “ not anything like the quality of MB 🤣😆🥰. Great video thank you, keep them coming please xxx

In the states stores like Walmart, target, aldi and most grocery stores have there own private labels that are basically made in the same factorys that main labels. There are just cheaper when they are store brands.

This was great. "Trainer Sandle" 😂😂😂....i would like to see a taste test 💜

These stores have private label brands, where it might just be the name brand offered in the private label packaging and price!

Hi Sophie! Could you do a workout with me/ what I eat in a day video if you are comfortable with it?

Your first experience of the weird aisle! 😂 When you go to Tesco, can you have a shop around F+F clothing? I personally love a lot of their stuff. There's currently some Chanel type jackets for £35 each. You'll know when you see them!

I ♥️ Sophie 😊

I think Lidl excels at its Middle of Lidl aisle, especially for international food, as well as its bakery. The downside is that the meat I buy goes off rather quickly and some of their own brand products are a challenge (my ex bought some tortillas and they broke instead of folding). I second that I'd love to see you go to a local farmer's market!
