Something to balance out the Domino's discount codes ;)

Appears to be a cancelled export order or something, packaged in 'Oaklands' branding with NZ origin stickers but address on the back is for Lidl Supermarkets UK.

They come pre-packaged in 1kg plastic bags.

Look like export quality, no blemishes or brusied fruit in the bags from what I could see. Boxes said class 1 on them which I presume is a good thing??

Countdown Newtown has a huge pile of them to the left of the entrance as you walk in. Used the Countdown website and tried stores in Auckland, Wellington Region, Christchurch and Dunedin and they all let me add them which I presume means there is nationwide stock.

Hamster has confirmed they are available in Blenheim so presume it's all stores!

    Yeah I got a couple of these yesterday at countdown in Blenheim, they were good quality

    • asmcar on 21/10/2016 - 18:19

      Cheers for the stock confirmation. Usually I find the cheap $1 apples to be bad quality but these look good!

      • Kiwi on 21/10/2016 - 18:39

        Eating one now, really good.

        • asmcar on 21/10/2016 - 18:58

          Yeah I just had one too, really nice!

  • Kiwi on 21/10/2016 - 18:19

    Can confirm they are here in Levin too. Must have been a huge order to cancel, Lidl isn't a small chain either

  • Avantime on 21/10/2016 - 19:04

    Confirmed 30+ stock at Countdown Three Kings (Central Auckland), this must be a huge cancelled export order.

  • Ravs on 21/10/2016 - 20:41

    Same deal in Manukau as well and half crate stock. Seems like nationwide!

    I work at cd and they had something like 140 tones to sell

    • asmcar on 21/10/2016 - 22:50

      Well I did my bit with 3kgs….

  • justaddwater on 22/10/2016 - 01:05

    Is it just me or the apple are really small?

    • asmcar on 22/10/2016 - 01:19

      They're smaller than usual size - I prefer that though. I suspect they're intentionally sized this way for the market, they seem pretty consistently sized.

      • Kiwi on 22/10/2016 - 01:29

        The sticker on the bag states the size, can't recall it, but they were selected specifically for this batch.

      • Avantime on 22/10/2016 - 01:30

        "For Export" = smaller portions, even for crappy European discounters like Lidl.

  • [Deactivated] on 22/10/2016 - 23:18

    Think the 'Apple' tag is meant for the brand, not real apples.

      How's that?

    • asmcar on 23/10/2016 - 00:43

      Yeah realised that when I tagged it but thought it was amusing none the less.

      Relax, mate.

  • nzsaver on 24/10/2016 - 21:33

    How many of these do I have to eat to balance 1 Domino's pizza?

    • asmcar on 24/10/2016 - 21:49

      I've heard eating 10kgs in one sitting cancels out the calories…. try it and report back?
