My local lidl in irlam had the lungo nespresso compatible coffee pods on buy1 get 1 free. So 20 pods for £1.79 working out at just under 9p a pod. And they taste pretty good too, beats an overpriced 30p nespresso pod :stuck_out_tongue:

I don't object to buying these as they are Lidl's own, they are generic and not made by Nestlé. I won't buy anything made by or associated with Nestlé on ethical grounds as their aggressive promoting of infant formula over breastfeeding has led to health problems and deaths among infants in less economically developed countries. As this is the case, do Lidl and the likes occasionally sell compatible machines that fit these pods?

They do, however the bar isn't quite as good as the proper nespresso machines.
If you are averse to buying a nespresso machine from nestle perhaps buying a refurbished machine or used one is a compromise?
If that's not an option I seem to recall Costco sell a nespresso compatible machine & it's close to the bar level of the genuine nespresso machine.
I use these at work with a Cafetiere Hot Mug, just pull of the foil and hey presto fresh ground coffee every cup . Works out cheaper and tastier than the 80p -£1 a cup out of the works coffee machine.

At my lidl it was just the lungo ones but I use the lungo ones as short espresso shots, they taste strong it's just the strength is only 5 out of 10
