    Didn't think it could get worse than the lights but here we are. Tbh this offer is making mugs of people. Buy something for three times the price of a discount store and get one free.

    I'd place far more value on something useable like cereal, veg, bakery etc..

    That's the price you might expect for hand-made truffles decent chocolates, not penny sweets Aldi.

    Yeah no, it's a few cheapified Cadbury chocolates mixed with maynard bassett boiled sweets (AKA penny sweets).
    Basically it's even less chocolate for even more money, like pretty much every innovation since Mondelez took over.

    £4 per pouch in Iceland shops, which is c. €4.50 so €9 for 2

    The same pouches are €6.50 each in SuperValu

    I got these as I buy the aldi candles anyway. They smell lovely. I wish I had gone back in and bought more. It was one per customer but I would have gone to a different till. So far its the only one that appealed to me.

    Ah God that made me laugh. Poor fecker.

    Didn't think much of the Lego to be honest. A very small set and a not very exciting book. They did have other nice books and toys in though.

    The one offer per transaction really limits it - a lot of effort to save 2.49 if you weren't stopping by anyway!

    Forgive my ignorance (I'm sure I'm in the wrong though) but the picture says that bottle is €9.99. How does it almost half in price? Do I need something additional, like a voucher?

    A masterstroke by Aldi.
    Expect queues and pics on social media tomorrow as crowds go mad for cheep booze.
    They'll have a limited stock no doubt, but it'll be so worth it.
