Customers can even track where their trees come from through Lidl’s Tree tracker.

How to Save Money on Christmas Shopping
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to save money on your Christmas shopping.
Limit the number of presents – buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.
Instead, why not host a Secret Santa among your inner circles so you don’t have to buy multiple presents?
Plan ahead – if you have the stamina and the budget, it’s worth buying your Christmas presents for next year during the January sales.
Make sure you shop for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you don’t spend more than you need to.
Buy on sale on Boxing Day – some retailers are starting their main Christmas sales early so you can actually score a bargain before December 25th.
Delivery may cost you a little more, but it could be worth it if the savings are significant.
Shop through outlet stores – you can save a lot of money by shopping through outlet stores such as Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.
They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually the wear and tear is minor.
You’ll have to be quick, though, because the center aisle items are handed out on a first-come, first-served basis.
To be in with a chance of winning the ‘Golden Ticket’ worth a whopping £100, customers must sign up for the Lidl app.
Shoppers can download it for free on their smartphone via Google Play or the Apple App Store.
It’s worth noting that the £100 vouchers cannot be used to purchase alcohol, infant formula or gift vouchers.
The supermarket chain said visitors to the truck can also make a “wish” for something they want this Christmas, with the retailer granting a number of them.
