Hey FreeGang 💚 Thank you for coming on this Christmas food shopping trip to Lidl with us! We were excited to be able to try some of the lovely Christmas food at the end too 😋😋😋
I went in lidl earlier with my wife and toddlers as I get my favourite German biscuits at this time year but we did shop there good value for money I say for sure . We have all the advent calendars for the kids and wife got me one I got her one. It like it always every year. Our elf's come back early they causing havoc lol
I have started buying the different Christmas treats to put back for Christmas Eve/Christmas day and our family loves it….it’s amazing the different foods you can find…great video
Both of you ALWAYS make me laugh and smile because of the flow of banter between you. Thank you for taking care of each other. Loads of love to you and your wonderful family ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this Christmas program, a great way to take our minds off what's happening over in the USA. Love your programs . Wish we had a aLidil over here.❤
Hi ALL , Bob thay have been doing loose nuts in lidl by me for about six mounths or more . Katie that box crackers are £2-50 in herenfoods . Thank you for sharing your time .👍👍👍👍😄😄😄
Thank you, so excited to see Christmas food shops starting, I was a bit disappointed when Katie said it was too early for centrepieces, but glad you did a 180 on that. Hopefully you will do a centrepiece test video. I have searched for the Brussels recipe but can’t find it, can you please provide a link?
What fun! I have already purchased my fave box of dark chocolate. Always have to have whole walnuts and almonds for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Is it mature because it doesn't tell silly jokes....ha, ha!
Hi Bob Katy (and the invisible JoJo) Italians pronounce every syllable...Pan-e-Ton-e in English we would say Pa-ne-TOHN (there are vegan recipes online). In Japan they celebrate xmas with KFC Chicken .... Baklava -Turkish-Greek actually I'd say the entire Eastern Mediterranean, the word definately is derived from the Turkish, 15th century.
Yay JoJo arrived and he got the red bun which for the Chinese means good luck with money. By the Bao, bao dough is very easy to make and would work well in a cooking challenge. Hugs from Mexico Jacques
I enjoy your videos!, although i do mute the intro its a little too adverty for me , but then once the video content starts its more down to earth and relatable, i love the supermarket challenges 😊 thanks ❤
I’ve never seen vegan bacon for that price before haha! All the oriental stuff looks really lovely and tasty. #freegang #livebutnotlive #justkeeprising 💚
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Im so confused with that talking reindeer, i was looking really puzzled😂😂 I thought u edited the video for it to repeat back! But it actually was repeating back! How cool!😱 I'm so excited the wicked film is coming out on Friday! I remember Jamie saying she likes wicked! I wonder if she will go! But she might be busy with ingrid! I hope she enjoys if she does go!💚 Also randomly yesterday morning i was like I'm going to go to ikea!😂😂and I saw all the mustard again i started laughing😂 Take care Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Hey Lana! Thanks for your comment 😊 Yes, that reindeer was really talking back - we couldn't get away from it repeating us! 😂 Ah yes the Wicked film, we thought you might be excited and get to see it soon. Jamie will probably have to wait until it comes out online as she'll be busy feeding Ingrid for quite a while 😊 We hope you have a great day. Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
We tried it the other night, we wrapped it around the sausages, we thought it was ok. We’re going to try it again in some cheese toasties, that will be a good test 😋💚
i wish i could get xmas food right now but my mum eats it all we have to get it closer to xmas please do a video suprising jojo going to spainn to suprise sienna
Brit living in France, love seeing all the plant based options you can get in the uk in these shopping vids!! Can you please try to move the camera less swiftly, it can make people watching feel sick! cheers! ;)
Hey! Yes, we were a little too excited in this video and maybe moved around a little bit too quick. We'll try and slow it down from here onwards though 😊
@FamilyFreedom watch the back of packets not the front I'd advise tho, I love a mushroom Wellington for eg, but mushrooms have 0 nutritional value. Beeeaaaannzzz however 😆 love and share your content, it does help people I think anyway
@ you’re very welcome, I use them all the time! All major supermarkets sell them, m&s do their own branded ones! I’ve also seen and tried white wine and Asian flavoured stock cubes and they are brill to use in sauces too!
Hey FreeGang 💚 Thank you for coming on this Christmas food shopping trip to Lidl with us! We were excited to be able to try some of the lovely Christmas food at the end too 😋😋😋

Love this! Always love watching you all! You should do your food cooking challenge where u each do a different course but make it Christmas themed
That's a great idea! 👌😊
You can't have Christmas without sweets absolutely essential.
😋💚

Thank you so much for this Christmas program, a great way to take our minds off what's happening over in the USA. Love your programs . Wish we had a aLidil over here.❤
There are Lidl’s here in the States, sadly they are located in east coast states from Georgia to New York.
Like the taste test at the end. Especially confirming can be done in the air fryer. Really useful. Thanks
You’re very welcome 😊 Glad you liked it! 🤗
I love this time of year. On Boxing Day what we do is have the left over from Xmas day and then we do party picky tea and I love it
Hi Freegang ! I have the booklet from Aldi and Lidl ! That talking reindeer was so funny xx

Hi Joanne, thanks for your comment 😊
We share with you the brussel sprouts recipe in this video ua-cam.com/video/HkgalcW90aA/v-deo.html 😋
I loved this video. I'm going to lidls tomorrow and you gave me some ideas of things I can put away for Christmas to spread the cost.❤
Katie.....you can't just buy 1 for that (bacon) even on a budget! 🤣🤣 Xx💚
Very true Becks 🤣💚🤣
@FamilyFreedom I wish we could leave emojis on here but I'm so right aren't I haha 🤣💚💚💚 X
Yes, want to see the Gingerbread house challenge :) xx
Love your video and I will be off to lidi this weekend to have a look
Cool! 😊
Oh that cute talking reindeer, was it a reindeer? Love it😂😂
I literally live for Xmas so I can have my cheeseboard lol 😂 it’s the highlight of my year x
Amazing video and yes many more vegan products on board 🙌 always good to see companies looking after specific dietary needs 🎉
Hello from Ireland 😊
Hello from across the water 😊
I love mulled wine and often in December in an evening my husband will make mulled wine and roast chestnuts in the oven - delicious
Sounds wonderful 💚🙏💚
Love you all ❤ have fun
Thank you 💚😊💚
that's my favourite colour too Katie xxx
Really!?! I didn’t know that 💙💙💙
You are right about the vegan panettone - ve got ours from waitrose x
Love watching your adventures... Such a beautiful family. Love from Australia ❤
Thank you! 😊
Love all the varied foods 😊
So glad! Thank you Doris 💚
💚🌱
matured Panetones no longer tell silly jokes -- good one, Bob!! 🤣😂🤣
I don't have any dietary restrictions, so I buy my advent calendar on December 2nd when they are at least 50% off
I’d love to see a week of your main meals. Please
11.09 marzipan. I get that in Aldi here in australia
Can’t wait for the Christmas content ✨
We’re excited to share it with you Chloe 😊
The reindeer 🤣
Love the talking reindeer
Well Katie you got your snow ❄️
Love your video and the channel
Thank you 🤩
More mince pies yum yum yum... im gonna get some...
😋😋😋
When Lidl was near my flat you could get a free sweet treat on your birthday. Maybe they do Vegan sweet treats for you?
Thank you for letting us know! Our birthdays are coming up soon 💚
What fun! I have already purchased my fave box of dark chocolate. Always have to have whole walnuts and almonds for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Is it mature because it doesn't tell silly jokes....ha, ha!

Thanks so much for all of your insightful information Jacques! 🙏
I enjoy your videos!, although i do mute the intro its a little too adverty for me , but then once the video content starts its more down to earth and relatable, i love the supermarket challenges 😊 thanks ❤
It's like a cooking wine but when you cook with wine or other brands liquor them you heat it to 200 it will take the liquor out
Katie, I wouldn't put non alcohol mulled wine in gravy, it would be like adding Ribena
Ok, thanks for the tip, as I wouldn’t want my gravy to taste like ribena 🤣💚
@@FamilyFreedom Well Heston probably would, so you could be on to something
😭 y’all are making me hungry
Hey Bob, if you have not tried tinsel before, I highly recommend that you start with using it as a garnish.😂
😂😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing another great video hope you guys have had snow😊😊😊🎉
Thank you lovely Julie! We had a bit of frost this morning but no snow yet. We hope to get some soon ☃️☃️☃️
@FamilyFreedom there is snow where I live
Should get the reindeer for your grandchildren to play with
That was so funny 🤣
I’ve never seen vegan bacon for that price before haha! All the oriental stuff looks really lovely and tasty. #freegang #livebutnotlive #justkeeprising 💚
Yum!yum!🥰🇨🇦
💚🇨🇦💚
Do you have snow in London Katie and Bob?
Not yet! Hopefully soon! 🤞❄️

Check the ingredients. I had a marzipan log from lidl and it had milk in. Most of the christmas range we used to get from lidl now has milk in it 😢
Thanks for letting us know Christine. Fortunately the bits we got were all vegan 👌😊
❤❤❤
Much love Cassie 💚💚💚
Oh glad I saw this, I'm going to Lidl this week end. Nougat is said as nooo gar kinda don't pronounce the t on the end.
Thanks for letting us know about the pronunciation! 😊
I always get Lebkuchen
Ooooo you mentioned the important words. parkrun. I love parkrun. Where is your local
I will let Katie off with the bacon it’s technically not a Christmas item but you can make pigs and blankets nice video 😊
How much was that reindeer that kept repeating?
It was £14.99 🦌🎄
@@FamilyFreedomthank you. My family don't shut up so should be fun x
Heard some bad reviews on the bacon, hoping you guys like it 🤞
We tried it the other night, we wrapped it around the sausages, we thought it was ok. We’re going to try it again in some cheese toasties, that will be a good test 😋💚
Spread a little olive oil on anything in your oven or your airfryer
Thanks for the tip 💚
i wish i could get xmas food right now but my mum eats it all we have to get it closer to xmas please do a video suprising jojo going to spainn to suprise sienna
Hi how are you how you doing
We're doing very well thank you Mathew! How are you? 😊
Hey can we get thos3 bottles in The States?
I'd skip the marzipan
haha! :40 Katie looks like a baby with a bottle (bottle)
How come your food is alot cheaper then here in The States?
first
💚💚💚
Brit living in France, love seeing all the plant based options you can get in the uk in these shopping vids!! Can you please try to move the camera less swiftly, it can make people watching feel sick! cheers! ;)
Oh I get motion sickness and I’ve never experienced this with their videos. 😅 I can understand the request though. 💗
Hey! Yes, we were a little too excited in this video and maybe moved around a little bit too quick. We'll try and slow it down from here onwards though 😊
Do NOT eat the tree glitter, it will give you tinselitis!
😂😂😂
I use Owala water bottles. I love them. They have a straw and spout. So you can sip or gulp!
Sorry each for their own and apologies if its for dietary reasons, but no meat at xmas is criminal!
No need to apologise, you’re entitled to your own opinions. Luckily over the years we have found some delicious alternatives 💚
@FamilyFreedom watch the back of packets not the front I'd advise tho, I love a mushroom Wellington for eg, but mushrooms have 0 nutritional value.
Beeeaaaannzzz however 😆 love and share your content, it does help people I think anyway
Iam interested of going vegan because of my health can you please help me because I am struggling
After loosing my stomach from cancer
You guys know that the chocolate on the marzipan isn't vegan right....
Thanks for your comment. We double checked these products and they're all vegan 😊
Sorry to be negative but tinsel is so bad for the environment.
I have no idea who u are
We are Family Freedom, we do shopping videos and food videos and the occasional lifestyle video. Welcome to our channel, it's nice to have you here 😊
I love this video but you are spinning the camera around too fast! Can you slow it down a bit please?
Noted Linda 🙈 Thanks for the reminder! Bob gets a bit too excited with the camera, especially at Christmas! I will tell him to slow down 💚
@ I understand. I was getting excited myself and I don’t even live in the UK! I was getting dizzy though…and hungry
@FamilyFreedom You can buy red wine stock cubes that replicate the taste of putting wine in sauces/stocks, vegan too
Thanks for letting us know Elisha! 😊
@ you’re very welcome, I use them all the time! All major supermarkets sell them, m&s do their own branded ones!
I’ve also seen and tried white wine and Asian flavoured stock cubes and they are brill to use in sauces too!
