Lidl is selling a £7.99 BBQ tool that helps you cook crispy pizzas
The German discounter is launching the Grillmeister round pizza stone in stores from Thursday (June 12).
The stone is placed on BBQs and uses heat from the coals to cook your favourite flavour.
Lidl says the stone is moisture-absorbing too making for "extra crispy pizzas".
The nifty piece of cooking tech, measuring 38cm across, comes with a three-year warranty.
Of course, whenever buying something like this make sure you shop around to ensure you're getting the best deal.
Just because Lidl is offering a pizza stone for £7.99 doesn't mean you can't get one cheaper elsewhere.
Use websites like Price Spy, Price Runner and Trolley to compare prices on thousands of products across the major retailers.
You can do a quicker scan by using the Google Product/Shopping tab as well.
We had a look across the major retailers to see if any are selling a similar BBQ pizza stone for less than £7.99 and couldn't find any.
The next cheapest is Asda which is selling one for £10, then Tesco which has one in stock for £13.99.
If you're keen on Lidl's pizza stone, you won't be able to order it for home delivery as the retailer doesn't offer this service.
Five simple ways to save cash at Lidl
You'll have to be quick if you want to pick one up in-store as well as it's a middle aisle buy meaning once it's gone it's gone.
You can find your nearest Lidl store by visiting lidl.co.uk/c/store-finder/s10023098.
If the BBQ pizza stone doesn't take your fancy, Lidl has plenty of other middle aisle products on sale that might.
The discounter is selling a £6 foldable backpack that's perfect for summer holidays abroad.
How to save money on pizza
TAKEAWAY pizzas taste great but they can hit you hard on your wallet. Here are some tips on how to save on pizza:
Cashback websites - TopCashback and Quidco will pay you to order your pizza through them. They're paid by retailers for every click that comes to their website from the cashback site, which eventually trickles down to you. So you'll get cashback on orders placed through them.
Discount codes - Check sites like VoucherCodes for any discount codes you can use to get money off your order.
Make you own topping - One savvy customer noticed that Domino's charges up to 70p MORE for pizzas on its menu compared to ordering the same one through the "create your own" option. It's worth trying out to see if it makes a difference before you place your next order.
Buy it from the shops - It might not taste exactly the same but you'll save the most money by picking up your favourite pizza from your local supermarket. Some Asda stores sell freshly made ones from the pizza counter where prices start at £2.
The retailer's sell-out pizza oven is back in shops for £79.99 too.
How to save money at Lidl
Lidl reduces items at the start of the day, and the best deals can be found between 7am and 8am, when most stores open.
Shoppers can often find cooked meats, salmon fillets and breads reduced by 30% or more.
Lidl also has its own knock-offs of branded alcohol offering some bargain prices.
If you are hoping to avoid spending more than you planned on Middle of Lidl items, you can check what will be in the "Middle of Lidl" on the supermarket's website in advance too.
The Middle of Lidl is refreshed every Thursday and Sunday.
Shoppers can also keep tabs on what's appearing in the "Pick of the Week" section on the Lidl website.
The discounts happen every Thursday and are usually on fruit, vegetables, and meat.

Gold prices steady as investors assess Trump–Zelenskiy meeting
Aug 18 (Reuters) - Gold prices were largely steady on Monday, as investors focused on U.S. President Donald Trump's meeting with Ukrainian and European leaders, and the Federal Reserve's annual symposium in Jackson Hole this week. Spot gold was marginally down at $3,333.32 per ounce at 01:42 p.m. ET (1742 GMT), after hitting its lowest level since August 1 earlier in the session. U.S. gold futures for December delivery settled 0.1% lower at $3,378. The U.S. dollar gained 0.3%, making greenback-priced bullion more expensive for other currency holders. Trump said the U.S. would "help out" Europe in providing security for Ukraine as part of any deal to end Russia's war in Ukraine, as he and President Volodymyr Zelenskiy began a hastily arranged White House meeting to discuss a path to peace. The European leaders will meet with Trump afterwards in the White House's East Room at 3 p.m. EDT (1900 GMT), according to the White House. The meeting between Trump and Zelenskiy follows Trump's meeting with Putin on Friday, where the two leaders agreed to pursue a peace deal without implementing a ceasefire. "There was not much reaction in gold to the Putin-Trump meeting. I think we'll continue in this price range. The next inflection point is the Federal Reserve (conference)," said Marex analyst Edward Meir. Minutes from the U.S. central bank's July policy meeting are due on Wednesday, ahead of the Fed's annual conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, scheduled for August 21–23. Fed Chair Jerome Powell is expected to speak at the event. Investors will be watching out for Powell's remarks on the economic outlook. While markets have already priced in a 25 basis point cut, there's an outside chance of a 50 basis point reduction, which could drive gold prices higher, Meir said. Gold tends to perform strongly in environments with low interest rates and heightened uncertainty. Elsewhere, spot silver rose 0.1% at $38.02 per ounce, while platinum fell 0.1% to $1,334.10. Spot palladium gained 1% to $1,122.86 after falling to its lowest level since July 10 earlier in the session.

Breakingviews - Soho House throws a sedate $2.7 bln deal party
LONDON, Aug 18 (Reuters Breakingviews) - When VIPs like Apollo Global Management (APO.N), opens new tab and actor-turned-venture capitalist Ashton Kutcher show up, the expectation might be for the finance equivalent of a blow-out party. Soho House's (SHCO.N), opens new tab take-private, announced, opens new tab on Monday, is a little more sedate. Valuing the swanky private members' club at $2.7 billion, including debt, the deal is led by MCR Hotels and backed by Apollo and others, including Kutcher. With insiders like Executive Chairman Ron Burkle rolling over a massive chunk of shares and a challenge from a rabble-rousing investor fizzling, though, it's more of a quiet fix than a bold buyout. The $9-a-share offer has been on the table since December 2024. In January, activist shareholder Dan Loeb invited, opens new tab gatecrashers, pushing for a 'fair' sale process. Yet the stock never traded above the bid price. It makes sense: about 85% of the company is owned by insiders, leaving a thinly traded stub and discouraging rival bids. There's little room or reason for outsiders to RSVP. To boot, while the offer price might be well below the $14 a share at which Soho House listed in 2021, it's an 83% premium to where the stock was before takeover talk began. Loeb is no longer resisting, telling Reuters on Monday that he supports the transaction. Lackluster performance might seem troubling for a big, heavily indebted buyout. After all, revenue growth has slowed from 73% year-over-year in 2022 to shy of 7% in 2024. On its face, the deal's enterprise value comes in at a hefty 20 times last year's EBITDA. In reality, MCR and its companions aren't pushing the boat out quite so far. Aside from Burkle, fellow insiders and existing investor Goldman Sachs Alternatives are rolling most of their shares. That leaves, opens new tab a far smaller equity check to stump up alongside $845 million of fresh debt from Goldman and Apollo. The asset manager led by Marc Rowan is setting the mood, offering $700 million in 'hybrid' financing: part debt, part equity. This bucket of capital tends to target a mid-teens return, rather than the racy results of a classic private-equity raid. It's a better fit for a transaction that seems to mostly be about nursing Soho House back to health from a public-markets hangover. MCR Hotels, with its hospitality expertise, could help on operations. Kutcher, co-owner of a VC fund, opens new tab with Burkle, is essentially high-profile friends and family, filling out the guest list and maybe attracting further equity dollars. However, taking the company private doesn't solve its growth problems, or erase the tension between expansion and exclusivity. It is still a members-only business, inking a members-only deal.

One lucky ticket holder could take home a life-changing £210million in EuroMillions jackpot - making them the UK's biggest lottery winner
One ticket holder could become the winner of a record-breaking amount of money on Tuesday. The next EuroMillions jackpot could rise to £210 million, which would become the highest prize ever won in the UK. If there are no winners on Tuesday, it will now stay at 250 million Euros for a further four draws until it must be won in the fifth draw. In the 'Must Be Won' draw, if no ticket matches all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars, the jackpot prize will roll down into the prize tier where there is at least one winner - likely to be five main numbers and one Lucky Star. A single UK winner would instantly become the nation's largest-ever National Lottery winner. They would knock into second place the anonymous winner of a £195 million prize in 2022. It would also make the winner twice as rich as Sir Andy Murray on £100million, leave £75million England captain Harry Kane in the dust and just head off Anthony Joshua with his £195million fortune. WHAT COULD YOU BUY WITH £208MILLION? The 'world's most expensive penthouse', owned by property tycoon Nick Candy at One Hyde Park in central London, made available on the market for £175million. The costliest ever Rolls-Royce, the £20million Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail - that is, ten of them. The next James Bond movie - the last instalment, No Time To Die, was budgeted at £184million. Covering the estimated £208million cost of the ongoing Covid inquiry. Spain and Barcelona's Lamine Yamal, 17, judged by analysts to be the world's most valuable footballer at £200million - ahead of England and Real Madrid's £175million-priced Jude Bellingham. Enough £52 75cl bottles of Moët & Chandon Champagne to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool and about half of another one. 218,947,368 Mars Bars, at 95p apiece in UK supermarkets. It follows an Irish family syndicate claiming a EuroMillions jackpot worth 250 million euros (£216 million) on June 17. The jackpot had reached the maximum amount on June 6 after rolling over several times. This historic Irish win surpassesd the previous EuroMillions record of £195million, which was won by a UK ticket-holder in July 2022. The winning ticket was sold in a retailer in Munster, County Cork, the Irish National Lottery said. The winning numbers from the draw were 13, 22, 23, 44, 49 and Lucky Stars 3 and 5. Under Irish National Lottery rules, jackpot winners can choose to remain anonymous. 'We are absolutely thrilled to have heard from our EuroMillions winner,' Irish National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan said. 'At this point, our priority is to give them the necessary time and space to make arrangements and let this life-changing news sink in.' Andy Carter, senior winners' advisor at Allwyn, said: 'Tuesday's jackpot has the ability to transform not just the winner's life, but the life of the friends and family around them. 'So, make sure you get a ticket to be in with a chance of banking Britain's biggest ever win.' Players should get their EuroMillions tickets - either in store or online - before 7.30pm on Tuesday. An unknown UK ticket-holder was handed the country's record for a EuroMillions jackpot of £195million on July 19 2022. That was even more than the prize landed by Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, when they scooped a then-peak £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the National Lottery draw on May 10 that same year. Mr Thwaite, a communications sales engineer, told how his wife who ran a hairdressing salon was asleep when he noticed the winning numbers on the National Lottery app - and he opted not to wake her while browsing for potential new homes. And last December it was revealed a British participant had become the country's third biggest National Lottery winner of all time after hitting a jackpot worth £177million. The single ticket-holder, who chose to stay anonymous, came forward to claim the EuroMillions jackpot after the draw on Tuesday November 26. Among the big winners who did agree to go public with their good fortune were Colin and Chris Weir, from Ayrshire, who were handed £161million in 2011. Colin died aged 71 eight years later after getting through just half of his jackpot, with most of it having been shared between family, friends, and charities. The EuroMillions draw is a biweekly lottery in which members of the public in the UK and eight other European countries participate - with draws held on Tuesday and Friday evenings.
