Forget customer service, this is customer SERVED.
It’s quite nice to see massive brands display a little personality through their online presence, as evidenced by this epic letter for one.
When rival brands target each other, however, the only thing to do is grab the popcorn, sit back and watch.
Earlier this week Lidl and Tesco went head to head on Twitter over the weather. Tweets include spelling police and some seriously cheesy puns.
Here are some examples from the battle. Beware – there’s rapping.
Bad weather set for the weekend. Don’t put the BBQ’s away, just get the ‘BBQ King’ to put on his raincoat! #SozDa

@lidl_ireland Sorry for the grilling, we know things need to be kept spicy. Still, there are no excuses for poor spelling 😉 #KnowYourLimits

@lidl_ireland When it comes to rhyming, we’ve got the touch of Midas. Your lyrics are of Lidl value, whilst ours are Tesco Finest. #PeaceOut
