Lidl tools

I should have kept quiet, shouldn't I?

[Rob Morley]

So you reckon they're going to pay for storage, and keep working capital tied up in something that has slim margins in the first place? (That's rhetorical, you needn't reply - I won't.)

[Mary Fisher]

Someone - Geoff?

Can't be bothered looking back, I'll leave it to you :-)

LOL!

I have to reply because the info came from a local aldi store manager.

p.s take a look at lidl now the 2 vices they had last year are on display again. :-)

Buy two shopping trolleys and balance one of the freezers across the top

That makes sense - well, more sense than sticking it in storage for a year.

I popped in to my local-ish Lidl this morning and got one. Haven't had a chance to play with it yet, though. Also picked up a couple of the workbenches, a mitre saw and a few other bits. Bargain!

There were about a dozen people waiting when I got there at 5 to 9, rising to two dozen by 9 o'clock. All went straight to the discount tools.

Yes, Spouse said he had time for his breakfast first so came home without the laser level. Serves him right for not taking notice of me. Not that he needed the level, it would just have been another toy to clutter the garage..

But he did spend on retractable knives, diamond sharpeners and a mitre saw because it's better than the one he lent a son. He has used that already (making a Mary Rose amputation saw) and is very pleased with it.

For anyone who missed out on the laser spirit level, B&Q are doing a clearance on one of their lines. £13.99. I never noticed what make it was but it looked reasonable.

[Andy Hall]

I thought that the hospital was doing that?

Been there done that :-( My rule now is: If its Electronic be first in the queue. For other things be there when the store opens. Unless you got one, in which case it will still be available a week later :-)

I think you've got a sauce !

[Doctor Drivel]

Lidl sold mixer taps. They all sold out, none went back into storage. 6 months later the same taps £5 cheaper.

[The3rd Earl Of Derby]

rofl, If they where all sold out how do expect them to go back into storage.

p.s they probably restocked. ;-)

[Doctor Drivel]

Sir, you have reading problems. I never said they went into storage.

[Chris Bacon]

Sorry to contradict, The3rd, but indeed they dozen. Look at the dates on these things that you think have "come back", such as the dates on the documentation, grinding wheels, plastic mouldings, and so on.

[Mary Fisher]

er ... ?

Sauce Marie Rose is the gunk in a prawn cocktail.
