The Legendary LIDL Horse Blanket

I have mentioned it on the site in the past... word of it has been muttered in public places... but the LIDL horse blanket has always been a mystery, an enigma... even a myth.

Few have purchased the item for sale in LIDL aimed at a target audience as likely to own a horse as an aristocrat own a pink toweling tracksuit.

The price at a shocking £24.99 means the blanket could not have an alternative use such as a blanket for a baby or even curtains for a bathroom window. It's one of the rare occasions that a REAL baby blanket or a REAL set of curtains for a bathroom window in ANOTHER shop would in fact be cheaper.

ONLY somebody with a horse would consider purchasing it - yet does LIDL really attract the horse owning types?

The pile of horse blankets remains untouched as does the pile of doggy life vests.

What LIDL are forgetting is most LIDL shoppers actually eat horse meat.
