Yesterday my friend Marthoma impressed me quite a bit. He had come over, because we wanted to work on something together. When his laptop battery didn’t charge and he couldn’t get the computer started, he discovered an advertisement paper from Lidl, a german food discounter. Yesterday they had a 17″ Laptop, that seemed like a good deal. There is a Lidl just about 100m from my house. My friend went over and bought the €1399 Laptop. It took him only 15 min and he didn’t buy any food while he was at it. According to recent tests the quality of meat and vegetables at Lidl is amongst the worst in Germany.
