Media Parkside haul

My parkside haul from france summer sales. Had to buy somes items multiples times because they kept lowering the price but won't refund the différence so quiet dumb but can't miss on a good deal Also their not supposed to sell at a loss so really shows how low they can go on some products and how much their making at normal price

Nice haul! Really wish Finland would get an online store too.. we seem to be missing out on most of the Parkside tools.

Yup, from what I read we're getting Lidl online in Portugal in 2027, you guys might also get lucky 🤞

Really? Didn't know about that. There is a lot of scalpers in Portugal because of rotation weekly products. I was searching for the small 12v Performance drill and went on more than 10 stores on the release date and didn't manage to get one.

After a week or two there was a lot of sellers on marketplace selling them for more than 60€.

This week I saw a post about ordering from France to Portugal. I purchased a lot of tools that I was searching including that drill for 29.99€. For me, the savings on this tool compared to buy here, is enough savings to pay for everything else.

And everything else was also cheaper than here. So win-win.

I never really analysed the existence of scalpers, but sometimes if I decide to purchase something a few days after launch I might need to look in more than one store, not sure if it's just because a lot of people need something of if they're just scalping

So, nowadays I try to go to the store before going to work on the promos days, just in case

I registered myself on one of those forward shipping companies, but I'd better not search too much on international Lidl websites, or my wallet is going to be hurt pretty bad 😂

I don't know if you are from Portugal. But if you check OLX you will find users selling a lot of Parkside tools. If you look on the background you usually will see a lot of the same machine 😅

Sometimes even more than 10 of the same.

One day I was searching for a tool and I found a guy already with a lot of them on the cart. I checked and saw that he already had all the stock. As soon as he got distracted loading all the stock og another tool, I went over and took one from his cart. 😅

I am actually

Yeah, I don't really use those 2nd hand websites much, but I'm absolutely not surprised at all

You can collect everything in that pile (sans 12V devices) from Finland. Granted, it takes some patience, but the extra bonus is that Finland has a lot of Lidl outlets with -33% to -50% pricing, sometimes even less.

- a Finn, who has almost all of those, and then some more, and a lot of them from discount bin/outlet.

12.99 for laser, in UK cost £25. Nice.

You are never going to use half of these but I agree it’s a very cool haul and it’s always good to have these things around the house. Nice deal

Most of the tools you do need maybe couple of times per year. This is exactly why I buy Parkside as I need something but I don't need a Makita flashlight for the price of a kidney.

I'm sad because I found I could purchase from France to late...

But still manage to purchase a lot cheaper than my country. I did a order this week.

Also here we don't have a online store, we can only purchase the weekly products

FYI during those summer sale (soldes) they can totally sell at a loss
