So I went into Lidl.....
« on: 18 October 2019, 18:16:46 »
...... for a bag of apples....  ::)

...... and came out with a bag of Cox's ......... and a cordless Dremel!  :D

I've no idea when or what I'll use it for, but I've always wanted one and at £16.99 it seemed rude not too!  :)

Gotta love Lidl!  :y

Came out of Lidl with an impulse purchase 1.2 kva inverter generator for £140 earlier in the year.

Not quite as quiet as the Honda one I had my eye on, but not £900 either. :o

Had to put a mains filter on the output too, but it's done 3 24 hour radio contests this year and not missed a beat. :y

We flew home from holiday and whilst driving back from airport stopped at a Lidl store for some milk and bread.
This was one of the new generation stores that are being rolled out over here and are huge....
Anyway, came out with a litre of semi skimmed a loaf of toasty bread and €350 worth of portable scaffolding......
She went 'kin mental three weeks later when she discovered it still unwrapped in my workshop , still is.
I get bored when in there now as I seem to have bought everything .

I've always found the cheap ones to be a bit crap TBH.  The single exception to that was a Woolworths one that a mate bought me for xmas probably 30yrs ago, that was fantastic, and arguably more controllable than the Dremel I have now.  Shame it was in the garage :(

Mine does see a lot of use though.

My one piece of advice is that the 10,000,000 piece accessory sets for £15 from all the usual shite places are utter wank. Buy decent quality accessories.  The single exception was the old Maplins accessory sets, which were good value and performed reasonable.
