I've had to change the priority of stores I shop at. Not even gonna touch international stores at this point. Only going to Aldi first, then Lidl for anything not stocked at Aldi.

Lidl has a larger variety than Aldi, but Aldi's groceries are more affordable.

    I though those are the same brand? Mostly because every time i mention Lidl in online discourse people automatically switch over to using Aldi or every time there's a picture of some goods that for me are sold in Lidl, the description says Aldi.

    They're different stores, but they cover the same niche with broadly the same market strategies (having very affordable in-store brands, packaging products in boxes to make re-stocking the shelves more efficient etc.) So a lot of people talk about them interchangeably.
