LIDL SUPPORTING LADIES GAA 
Lidl Ireland are encouraging clubs to support their ladies teams by collecting stamps on the Lidl app each time you spend a minimum of €30 in store.  Just download the LidlPlus app, select your club and start collecting! Open from February 15th until April 10th, and each time you spend min. €30 and scan your app at the till, you will receive a digital stamp. Once six stamps have been collected, users can submit their completed stamp card via the app and their stamps are then added to their chosen club’s total.
