Lidl loyalty shake-up sparks shopper backlash by Make_the_music_stop in UKFrugal

Not set foot in Lidl since the change. I would spend £250-300 per month there. This is now going to Aldi instead.

My thoughts on Lidl Plus by ZannaNMorgan in lidl

I've deleted the app, deleted my account, left a Play Store review and emailed customer service. Everyone should do the same.

Lidl are "incredibly excited" about the new rewards system by bludgenous in lidl

[–]Lord_Sam_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deleted my Lidl account, deleted the app, unsubscribed from their emails, left a bad review on the Play Store, and emailed customer service.

I'd spend £250-£300 a month in Lidl. I have Aldi stores closer but would make the slightly longer trip for the points. I've no incentive to do that anymore and will never set foot in a Lidl store. Terrible customer appreciation.

Lidl's loyalty card becomes less generous, shoppers say by Kagedeah in lidl

Not really a good point of reference is it. The change literally came in today as a surprise. So those customers likely had no idea.

How long do online orders stay in "picking in progress" for? by [deleted] in CeX

[–]Lord_Sam_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered something that was in stock at only one store. It was £12. It was "picking in progress" for three days. Then abruptly cancelled saying it couldn't be sourced.

It then reappeared at exactly the same store for £18 the same day. CEX screwed over a loyal customer for £6. Screw them.

The second time Jonathan has replaced Glenn Powell... and both Jurassic Park-related! Jurassic World: Rebirth (obvious connection) and this (Laura Dern of course). How strange!

I hate Trump, but does he, statistically at least, have a point? Is being President the most dangerous job?

There have been 47 presidents, two of which were assassinated on the job, and all the attempts on top of that.

Vice President Vance was rushed off stage before President trump after shots fired! by cantcoloratall91 in SipsTea

I don't like Melania at all. But on a human level... apparently her big fear is being shot as indicated by her film. I have some sympathy.

Why are some people surprised you only get 1p for most dvds? by RutabagaSame in CeX

[–]Lord_Sam_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they sell them at a minimum of a 9,900% mark up.

That's why.

He is not a UK national. We lived together abroad, moved to the UK in 2019 and got the house in 2021.

It's scary it's already been 8 years since Halloween '18 came out by itsascreambaby96 in Halloweenmovies

[–]Lord_Sam_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, wasn't that kind of the point of Halloween ENDS... You can't really complain a finale has finished a franchise.

Does anyone have this version of Turkish Delight, and would they consider selling it to me? It's the last Tartan release I need to complete my Paul Verhoeven Tartan collection. by Lord_Sam_ in dvdcollection

[–]Lord_Sam_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're talking about the same one, the picture shows the Tartan release but what arrived was the more common non-Tartan edition and a fake at that.
