    7.00am to be sure. They will be rationed across stores.

    To be honest this doesn't seem like a great deal, it would have been good a year back but that's pretty much standard.

    Was gonna ask the same, desperate to grab this deal but I don't know what their opening times are for Bank Holiday Mondays.

    It's 10am on Monday - at least in Rathmines it is and should be everywhere, but does that really matter?

    You'll have to assume at least 6 will think it's 9am opening and have to "out queue" them accordingly!

    Will try and pick up one of these on Monday .

    Anyone know something similar from an online source ? Won't get to an aldi until midday Monday so chances are these will be all gone

    IMO, not a great deal. You can pick one up in sales on a regular basis.
    21.5" is a caravan or small kitchen size.

    Add in the 3yr warranty and it's far from "pretty much standard" and will never be seen in a sale on a "regular basis"

    Be careful when buying a TV from Aldi, the last combi they did was back in November last year it was an Altius 24" LED TV with built in DVD and it looked like a proper deal based on the spec (it was £129.99) however a lot of people complained that it was not as described in the Aldi bumf and on top of that quite a few people had various issues with the TV not working correctly, see the comments on the deal link below.

    They could have just returned it to their local Aldi for a refund. Easiest return I have ever had was something from Aldi. Regardless, not a big deal, and not a deal breaker for a completely different Television being offered here.

    Yeah it looks like it did work for most ppl - just not as advertised.

    The uncle picked up two of these this morning, he said he was very happy with the picture quality, handy as well with the USB & DVD. Will see how these tv's go in a few weeks to see if any problems occur.

    Seems like a good deal though.

    It does seem to be a good price, but really, 1080p is pretty much pointless on a TV of this size, and it's just a standard dvd player.

    I dunno, if you're desperate for a TV in the kitchen then go for it, but I can think of better ways to spend €150.

    I'd imagine that the only reason the TV is 1080p is because it's using a mass-produced 1080p LCD panel that are also used for PC monitors, etc. Even the "brands" do it.

    Be grand for a kitchen or small bedroom and a 21-22" combi is good enough value at €150

    That post is a wee bit odd, don't you think?
