Lidl Price Drop Monitor & Scraper - DE, AT, CH, NL, CZ, SK

Schedule it daily → get only new products, price drops and price rises from the Lidl online shop, with the old price. For resellers, deal sites, brands and price analysts: type product words (or paste a Lidl category or product link), pick the country, and every run returns each product's price (EUR, CHF or CZK), strike price, recommended price and discount, unit price, EAN, rating, delivery and store dates. Turn on watch mode and later runs return only what changed since the last run, with the previous price and the change in %.

• Six Lidl online shops: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Netherlands, Czechia and Slovakia
• Search by product words, paste a category link, or watch exact products by their product links
• Read every product of a shop at once (about 14,000 in Germany) and get every new product and price change
• EAN barcode for matching with your own catalogue or other shops
• Store dates: when a product comes to Lidl stores and when the online offer started
• Filter by price range or only discounted products
• Each product once per run, even when two searches overlap
• Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or send rows to Google Sheets, Slack or a webhook with Apify integrations

How to use it

1. Type one or more product words in Products to find, for example parkside, kaffeemaschine or silvercrest. You can also paste the link of a Lidl category page (lidl.de/h/...) or of a product page (lidl.de/p/.../p100398365).
2. Pick one or more countries in Lidl online shop (country). Each word is searched in every shop you pick; links always use the shop of the link.
3. Set Maximum products per search and run. Leave everything empty to run the example: 10 Parkside products in Germany.

To read a whole shop, turn on Every product of the shop. To keep track of prices, turn on Watch mode and add a schedule. See Monitoring on a schedule.

In watch mode each row also carries changeType and, for a price move, previousPrice, priceChange, priceChangePercent and comparedOn.

Every row has a status. Product rows are ok. When a search finds nothing, a product page is gone, or a search stops early, you get one free row that says so (no-results, not-found, incomplete, blocked, unreadable, bad-input), so you can see how the run went.

Monitoring on a schedule

Turn on Watch mode, then click Schedule on the Actor page and pick daily (or hourly).

• First run: returns the products it finds, each with changeType: "new", and remembers their prices.
• Every later run: returns only
  • new - products that just appeared in your search, or came back after leaving it
  • price_drop - cheaper than last time, with previousPrice, priceChange and priceChangePercent
  • price_up - pricier than last time
  • removed - the product was missing for two runs in a row: its page was taken down (removedReason: "page-removed") or it left your search ("left-list"). Reported for word searches, product links and whole shops that fit in Maximum products per search, without a price or discount filter.
• Quiet run: one free no-change row confirms the run worked. You pay the start fee and the small watch check fee for the products it read.

Small moves add up: with minChangePercent: 5, a product that drops 2% a day is reported on the third day, compared with the price it was last reported at.

Each search and country is tracked separately. To watch the same search twice with different settings, give each task its own watchName. To start over, run once with resetMonitoringState.

Pricing

You pay per product row, plus a small start fee per run. In watch mode, a small check fee also applies to each product that was read and had not changed:

Event	Price
Product row (ok)	$2.79 per 1,000 rows (down to $2.19 on higher Apify plans)
Run start	$0.008
Watch check (watch mode, second run on)	$0.15 per 1,000 unchanged products read (down to $0.12 on higher Apify plans)

Status rows (no-change, no-results, not-found, incomplete and the others) are free. In watch mode, from the second run on, you pay the row price for the rows that changed (new, price_drop, price_up or removed) and $0.00015 for each unchanged product that was read. A daily watch of 500 products where 20 moved costs about $0.14 per run; a quiet day for the same 500 costs about $0.08. Watching every product of Lidl Germany (about 14,000) costs about $2.10 on a quiet day. The first watch run returns every product as new, so it bills all of them as rows (500 products = about $1.40 + $0.008) and has no check fee. With includeUnchanged, unchanged products come back as rows at the row price instead of the check fee. Runs with Watch mode off never pay the check fee.

FAQ

How do I get an alert when a Lidl product drops in price? Turn on Watch mode, type the product words or paste the product link, pick the country, set minChangePercent (for example 5) and schedule the Actor daily. Each run returns only the products that got cheaper or pricier, with the old price. Connect the run to Slack, email or a webhook with Apify integrations to get the alert.

How do I see every new product Lidl puts online? Turn on Every product of the shop and Watch mode, pick the country and schedule it daily. Every product that appears for the first time comes back with changeType: "new", with its price, EAN and store date.

Can I watch exact products? Yes. Paste the Lidl product links, one per line, from any of the six shops. Each run returns those exact products, and a free not-found row lists the ones Lidl took offline.

Can I track a whole category? A category link gives you the first 48 products of the category. For a full brand or product type across the shop, type the words instead, for example parkside or silvercrest, or turn on Every product of the shop.

Which words find products? Words from the product name, in the shop's language: kaffeemaschine in Germany, koffiezetapparaat in the Netherlands, kávovar in Czechia. Brand names such as parkside, silvercrest or crivit work in every language.

Can I match Lidl products with my own catalogue? Yes. Most rows carry the EAN barcode (ean, and all codes in eans), so you can join them with your products or with other shops.

What currency are the prices in? The shop's currency: EUR in Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and Slovakia, CHF in Switzerland and CZK in Czechia. Every row carries currency and country.

How often should I schedule it? Daily suits most price watches. Hourly works too; a quiet run returns one free row and costs the start fee plus the check fee for the products it read (500 products = about $0.08).

Can I export to Excel or Google Sheets? Yes. Download the dataset as CSV or Excel, or use the Google Sheets integration.

Good to know

• Unofficial and not affiliated with Lidl.
• Covers the products of the Lidl online shops (lidl.de, lidl.at, lidl.ch, lidl.nl, lidl.cz, lidl.sk), not the weekly store leaflet.
• Every search word must appear in the product name, in the shop's language. A word that is part of a longer compound may not match (akkuschrauber does not find Akku-Bohrschrauber); use shorter words or the brand.
• A category link reads the first page of the category (up to 48 products). For more, use words or Every product of the shop.
• Up to 20,000 products are read for one search, 50 searches and 1,000 product links per run.
• In tests, 10 products took about 10 seconds, 40 products about 1 minute, and the whole Austrian shop (473 products) about 10 minutes. Products are read at about 45 per minute, so a whole shop of Germany (about 14,000 products) or the Netherlands (about 13,000) takes about 5 hours, and Czechia (about 12,000) or Slovakia (about 11,000) about 4 to 4.5 hours: the default timeout is 8 hours. If a run reaches its timeout, it stops a little before, keeps what it returned and adds a free incomplete row; raise Timeout under Run options and run again.
• In word searches and whole shops, a product that Lidl still lists but whose page was taken down returns no row and is not charged (the run log counts them). A product link you gave whose page is gone returns a free not-found row.
• priceBeforeDiscount, recommendedPrice, unitPrice, ean, rating, inStoreFrom and firstOnlineDate are null when Lidl shows no value for the product.
• Watch mode compares the price. A change in stock alone is not reported, but every watch row carries inStock and previousInStock.
