All three styles will be on offer to buy later this week
Lidl shoppers will be able to grab a bargain from the Middle Aisle this week, as a new collection of Special Buy sale items launches. In stores, customers will be able to pick up a new travel mug that could be mistaken for a popular high-end brand at a glance.
Describing the affordable Stainless Steel Insulated Mug online, Lidl wrote that its double-walled insulation helps to "keep drinks hot or cold... at home and on the move". Unlike most bottles with a huge capacity, Lidl bosses claim that this will "fit in all standard car cup holders", making travel much easier - whether it's to the office, university, college or just day-to-day life.
The supermarket adds that it comes with a "practical handle and reusable drinking straw". It is confirmed that the Silverrest cup, which also comes in black and yellow, is "suitable for dishwashers" too.
The cup shares some similarities with the Stanley Cup. Available in similar size and colour options, this Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumbler from the big brand would cost shoppers £50 (excluding online shipping).
In Lidl, the 1.2 litre cup costs less at £5.99 without Lidl Plus (or £4.99 when scanning your app at the checkout). This alone saves people £44-£45 if they register for a free account online, provided they have not already done so.
When is it available?
Lidl shoppers do not have much longer to wait before these items arrive in their nearest store. Shoppers can expect a full refresh of the Middle of Lidl this week on Thursday (August 27). The new collection of items will feature 'Back to Uni Kitchen' goods. In addition to the Insulated Mugs, shoppers can find items such as cordless hoovers, air fryers, toasters, microwaves, blenders, and more.
Aside from the kitchen, this latest homeware restock includes deals such as the Minky 12m Heated Airer (£39.99) and a range of handy laundry hampers (from £2.99). Items are restocked every Thursday and Sunday, with online previews available a week in advance.
Shoppers who want to double-check if items are still available after the first release on Thursday can ask the supermarket's AI bot directly. Go to the Lidl Customer Service Portal and click the chat icon in the bottom right corner.
The AI bot can only check stock levels for Middle Aisle items that arrived in stores within the past 14 days. The system cannot check standard grocery/food items or products older than two weeks.
For older items, you need to visit your local store or check the current leaflets. Typically, once an item is sold out at Lidl, it is rarely restocked, so shoppers are often encouraged to act quickly rather than wait around.
It can sometimes be worth checking nearby stores if your local supermarket has not got the item you want, or if you want a specific style that has proven popular with other customers. It is always worth checking with Lidl staff before walking away empty handed.
