LIDL has launched a range of Father's Day bargains that will make perfect presents for those on a budget.
The discount supermarket is famous for offering great deals in its Middle Aisle.
The Father's Day offers are no different as they start from just £1.99.
This latest drop of Middle Aisle buys will be available in stores from June 1 - but you'll have to be quick as once they're gone, they're gone.
This year Father's Day falls on Sunday, June 15.
Here are all the deals you can get...
Parkside Cordless Screwdriver Set - £14.99
At just £14.99, this is a great alternative to the Bosch version.
It's 4V and it comes with four BBQ attachments: a BBQ blower, corkscrew, and salt and pepper mill.
For reference, the similar Bosch 3.6V 1 x 2 Li-ion Cordless Screwdriver IXO 7 costs £35 and doesn't come with the accessories.
Lidl says the screwdriver set can be used around the house, in the kitchen and with your BBQ.
It has a USB-C charging port and a USB-C charging cable, although it doesn't come with a mains adaptor.
It has a 15-piece bit set with standard screwhead profiles, plus a bit extension.

The screwdriver also comes with a three-year warranty.

Lidl describes the trimmer as having "ultra-sharp blades for precise and effortless grooming".
Its RRP is £67.49 on the Braun website but it's selling on there currently for £44.99.

Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you've ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you'll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi's speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It's all part of Aldi's plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses 'shelf-ready' packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
