New thread because this was off topic on the Chinese gear thread.
My perspective is that Lidl and Aldi in recent years have represented the worst in low price, poor service, exploitative supermarkets. The service is bad and I have been told that they are bad employers. They were at the bottom of the scale on the Ethical Consumer supermarket list but since they have had a bad press they have risen up the list and now ADSA are at the bottom.

It's the same when you're buying most things. Don't go along with the supermarkets who keep telling us "the consumers demand low prices" and exploit their suppliers whilst trying to blame us.
Buy on quality not price and support the suppliers of good quality. I refuse to shop at Lidl and Aldi for food ...
