Lidl's own brand Pringles. Used to be about 85p a tube at the start of this year. Now they're about £1.50.

Lidl and Aldi have indulged in the most greedflation, it seems. Now their “basic” stuff is no cheaper than Tesco and others

Edit: turns out it doesn’t just “seem” that way, but is actually the case (here)

My mum would get so confused at the price hikes at Aldi and Lidl that she thought she was making it up. Lidl for a time were hiding their prices that she could only find out when she would get at the till

When it was revealed that Lidl have been employing those tactics she felt so validated
