Lidl Weekly Offers Scraper — Leaflet Prices & Flyers

Disclaimer: Unofficial tool — not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Lidl, Schwarz Group, or their affiliates. Data is read from publicly accessible weekly leaflets only. No login and no Lidl Plus account. You are responsible for complying with applicable law and the site’s terms. No warranty on accuracy or availability. Provided for informational and research use.

Lidl weekly offers scraper for this week’s leaflet / Prospekt / flyer / gazetka / volantino / folder specials across 16 European Lidl markets. Export advertised price, brand, validity dates, Parkside / non-food vs grocery, image, and the flyer PDF as JSON or CSV. Use it as a Lidl API alternative from Python, Node.js, cURL, or MCP.

Built for deal-site feeds, CPG price intel, and Middle-of-Lidl / Parkside monitors — not a full lidl.de shop catalog dump.

FAQ

Is this a Lidl product catalog scraper? No. This Lidl scraper reads the weekly leaflet (Aktionsprospekt / folder / gazetka / volantino), which is how Lidl merchandises specials. Most country sites do not publish a Tesco-style everyday grocery catalog.

Can I scrape Lidl UK weekly ads? Yes. Set countries to GB. The Actor returns Lidl Weekly flyer rows in GBP with validity dates.

Does it cover Lidl Prospekt (Germany) and NL folder? Yes. Germany is DE (Aktionsprospekt). The Netherlands is NL (Folder / Non Food folder). Poland is PL (gazetka), Italy IT (volantino), Spain ES (folleto).

Which countries work? Germany, Austria, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, United Kingdom, Ireland, Portugal, Romania, Croatia.

Is this a Lidl API? Unofficial. It reads the same public leaflet JSON the country websites use. There is no official public weekly-offers API for third parties.

Do I need a proxy? The public leaflet JSON usually works from datacenter IPs. Enable Apify Proxy only if a market starts returning 403.

Current vs upcoming? Lidl often publishes next week’s flyer a day or two early. current includes that already-live leaflet. Use upcoming or both when you want the next window explicitly.

Food vs non-food? Classification uses flyer title, brand (Parkside, Silvercrest, …) and category path. Ambiguous rows stay in all and may have both flags false.

Regional flyers? Germany, Italy, Spain and others duplicate the weekly leaflet per region. Default keeps one representative copy and dedupes productId. Set includeRegional or regionCode only when you need store-level variants.

Lidl Plus prices? Only when the public flyer JSON already includes a member price. This Actor never logs into Lidl Plus.

Python / Node.js / MCP? Yes. Call the Actor with the Apify client (examples above) or from an AI assistant via Apify MCP. Export is the default dataset (JSON / CSV).
