Although I think Lidls is a great place to shop, The following things annoy me about shopping there.
If you park there for more than 90 minutes, there is a £90 fine
I know the reasons for this restriction, but their competitors allow 2-3 hours, which is more reasonable.
Some may think 90 minutes is more than adequate, but if you are doing a big shop, and want to browse their latest bargains in homeware , and are stuck in a long queue at checkout, then time quickly passes. If you are a bit slow moving around, or in a wheelchair, then it must be stressful worrying about keeping within the time limit.
After the goods have gone through the till, they amass in a small space, where it is difficult to bag them up . What Lidls wants you to do is chuck the lot back into the trolley, take it it to one side and bag up or take it out to the car, unlike other supermarkets where you can sort frozen food, veg, tinned goods into different bags
Lidls staff seem specially trained to shunt the stuff along, and get rid of you, so as to maximise the amount of shoppers along the conveyor belt
I don't find the shopping experience at Lidls a very relaxed one, which is a shame as they have good quality stuff at lower prices
