Lidl confirms date school uniform bundle will return with prices starting at £1.50
Parents can beat the back to school rush and financial pressure of a new term with Lidl's school range.
Parents will know all too well the stress of getting in a new school uniform. Not just a strain on finances, but it can be overwhelming and stressful for some.
That's exactly why many retailers have been confirming the return of its school uniform bundles, with Lidl being the latest to announce when theirs will be back in stores - and prices begin from just £1.50.
Landing in the German discounter's stores nationwide on Thursday, July 3, it is the perfect opportunity for parents who want to beat the inevitable back-to-school rush after the summer holidays.
However, it is worth mentioning, that since the range will land in the supermarket's middle aisle, combined with the fact that other parents will be looking to save money, it will only be available while stock lasts and it could sell out fast.
To get their little ones kitted out for a new term, the range contains an assortment of essentials such as polo shirts, dresses, sweatshirts, hoodies, trainers and much, much more.
There's also the opportunity to nab a full uniform 'bundle' for just £5, with the deal offering two polo shirts and a sweatshirt, alongside either a pair of trousers, a skirt or shorts.
For general everyday classes, Lidl's school range will provide parents with a two-pack of polo shirts for £1.75, working out at less than a pound each, as well as a two-pack of jersey trousers that cost under a fiver.
Worried about items lasting throughout P.E classes? Then don't fret, as Lidl will be offering high quality, durable sporty items such as a pair of kids' trainers for £6.99, a two-pack of cycling shorts for £2.99, and joggers for £3.49.
To keep parents' minds at east, the bundle comes with a 12-month satisfaction guarantee to ensure that they are getting good value for their money.
Lidl's announcement comes just after its budget rival Aldi confirmed when its own back-to-school uniform bundle would be returning to stores.
The German discounter's popular range is set to go available "earlier than ever" from Sunday, June 29, taking the stress and financial pressure of parents who are trying to their kids ready for a new term.
Similar to Lidl, the supermarket's bundle works out at just £5 for a full uniform that includes a sweatshirt, a polo shirt, trousers, skirts and cargo shorts.

Aldi's Scottish Gin named as best in the world as prestigious awards
It saw off competition from gins from places such as USA, Germany, China and elsewhere with the judging panel praising its flavour and 'exceptional' quality. The gin is sold for £19.99 in Aldi and was up against premium bottles that cost a lot more money when it was selected as the winner. The classic London Dry gin is said to feature a 'well-balanced blend of juniper, coriander and citrus' and was described as both 'elegant' and 'beautifully balanced' by the judges at the awards. Read More It is the latest award for the gin, which was launched by Aldi in 2023, having picked up the Gold and Best in Country at The World Drink Awards 2025. Graham Nicolson, Group Buying Director at Aldi Scotland, said: 'We have had an incredible response for Còmhla both from our loyal customers and the wider drinks industry.

Leaked FSG text speaks volumes about Liverpool's Florian Wirtz transfer saga
As Liverpool look set to eclipse their club record transfer fee to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen, many fans may remember the leaked text FSG sent to Jurgen Klopp With Liverpool on the verge of shattering their record transfer fee to sign Florian Wirtz, supporters may remember a leaked text from Fenway Sports Group. The Reds recently submitted a bid of £100milllion plus £14m of add-ons to Bayer Leverkusen, and while negotiations are still ongoing, they remain confident of wrapping up a deal. The Merseysiders are doing all they can to bring in the 22-year-old Germany international. And his arrival would dwarf their previous transfer record, which saw them spend £75m on Virgil van Dijk in the 2018 January transfer window. Wirtz is widely admired around Europe and was heavily linked with Manchester City and Bayern Munich. His likely arrival is a statement of intent from owners FSG, who were often reluctant to spent £100m in a single transfer window, let alone on one player. Not long ago, the club's fanbase were repeatedly accusing FSG of being too scared to break the bank to sign top-class players. The seemingly imminent arrival of Wirtz is a clear sign that the purse strings are no longer as tight. It is a huge boost to Liverpool fans who were often frustrated by the likes of fierce rivals Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea comfortably out-spending them. In his early years at the club, former manager Jurgen Klopp defended the ownership in press conferences and interviews. But behind the scenes, the German was making it clear that extra investment in the squad was vital if they wanted to lift the big trophies. When Klopp arrived at Liverpool, the Reds were in 10th place and had an ageing squad. Unhappy with the players at his disposal, Klopp received an apologetic text from the FSG bosses. In 2021, Klopp revealed: "At the beginning I received a message from the US saying, 'Sorry for the squad we've given you.' But all was good I replied, it just needs time.' Two years after revealing that text, Klopp watched his Liverpool side be convincingly beaten 5-2 at home by Real Madrid. It was the kind of chastening defeat which prompts action in the next transfer window. The previous month, Klopp publicly warned that Liverpool will need to be more aggressive in the transfer window or they will fall behind their Premier League and European rivals. He said: "I believe in coaching, I believe in developing, I believe in team-building and using those things 100%. "But meanwhile in the world out there the managers are really good. There are so many good managers out there it's crazy. So they believe in that as well, and if they start really properly spending and do those things as well, then you cannot not spend or you will have a little bit of a problem." In Klopp's final summer transfer window they fully took on Klopp's advice, as they rebuilt their midfield by signing Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch and Wataru Endo for a combined £155m. After Klopp walked away, many were surprised that Arne Slot was only able to sign Federico Chiesa in his first two transfer windows. But after winning the Premier League, FSG have shown the kind of spending intent usually seen by City, United and Chelsea. The way in which they have quickly moved for Wirtz highlights FSG's proactiveness, and that they are no longer afraid to break the bank to sign a potential game-changer. Full-back Jeremie Frimpong has already arrived this summer for £29.5m, while £45m Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez looks likely to arrive too, so Liverpool are clearly looking to build on their title triumph from Slot's first season. And it's a stark contract from the text message they left for Klopp all those years ago.
