First signage installed at future Bethesda Lidl


The first piece of signage has been installed at the future Lidl grocery store at 7625 Old Georgetown Road at Bethesda Place. It appears to be a sign that will eventually list the store's operating hours. As the "DANGER: HARD HAT AREA" sign next to it suggests, construction continues on the interior fit-out of the grocery store. 


More shelving is now in place, as well as wood paneling around what looks like the future Bakery department. Lidl will replace the long-departed Safeway store as the anchor retail tenant at this development.

Do you know if they will accept your WIC card?

FYI, from https://benefitsexplorer.com/wic-store/does-lidl-take-wic:

WIC stands for Women, Infants, and Children

"Lidl accepts WIC benefits. Lidl is one of the largest retailers in the United States and has a wide selection of WIC-approved foods. You can use your WIC benefits at any Lidl location."

"WIC benefits can be used to purchase certain nutritious eligible foods, such as:

Milk, cheese, and other dairy products
Infant formula and baby food (excluding organic baby food)
Vegetables
Bread
Breakfast cereals, including hot and cold cereals
Fruits
Meat and Seafood
Juice, including 100% fruit juice and vegetable juice

To ensure that you are purchasing WIC eligible items, look for the WIC-approved signs on the shelves at Lidl. These signs will indicate which items are eligible for purchase with WIC benefits.

It's important to note that WIC benefits can only be used to purchase items that are on the approved list. Any non-WIC items in your cart will need to be paid for separately."

"...you cannot use WIC benefits to purchase groceries online at Lidl. WIC benefits are only accepted in-store, and you must physically present your WIC EBT card at the time of purchase.

[However] You can place your online order and select the curbside pickup option, then pay for your non-WIC items separately when you arrive at the store to pick up your order."
