They really looked well made to me - I love Lidl!
I've got bathmats that weigh a ton and have even boil washed then a few times and they look new - they were £2.99 in Lidl about 8 years ago!
I had some marks on the walls that guests had made and I was quoted £624.00 to repaint 2 rooms - actually 3 needed doing so there was no way - I bought some "magic sponges" in lidl for 79p for 2 yesterday and the marks have gone!! (just as well as I am being inspected next week!)

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

I was in Lidl yesterday and they had a great cat carrier. It was huge - would take 2 cats or a small dog easily. It has a tubular frame and material around the frame with mesh so they can see out. It also has a tray in the bottom for accidents - I borrowed on of the wire ones from a friend recently and they aren't that big - also if the cat has an accident, there is nothing to catch it - hopefully a towel would soak it up?

Anyway, the lidl one is £15.00 - I would buy one if I hadn't recently bought one from PAH

Mark, I bought one of those from our Lidl recently(the blue one :)) and then saw a smaller version in a pet shop for £40!

Why does our Lidl never have anything that good?!

I went in for the cat scratchpost/bed offers and there was nothing!!

To think I might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry, and as we say our long goodbyes, I nearly do.

I expect the bids to go up and with £10 on top i could get a new one, but i will keep an eye on it

Well it did end at 99p and no bids, so I dont know if it will. Its just been reposted today.

I am quite tempted to buy it for myself, even with postage its a small bargain :)

Plus, Gerti and Cheese feel better about travelling when its less enclosed like a normal carrier  ;D

In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

I agree a bargain, especially if there is no postage involved.

Hey guys,

just wondering if anyone fancied buying this for a rescue (or themselves) in Essex area.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120083134964

I would buy it myself but I cant go all the way to collect it!

Just thought it was a bargain :)
