    Is this the first time that it's 2 per customer?

    I remember last year I think (possibly the year before) people wheeling 6-10 bottle out in their trolley.

    From Friday to Sunday this week it’s buy one get one free on bottles of prosecco in Aldi.

    Bottles are €8.99 each.

    Running it Friday to Sunday sounds ambitious, even if the 2 bottles per transaction is enforced customers will be going around and back for more. Cant see it lasting beyond Friday unless they are going to hold back stock for the other two days.

    LOL - I finally got one right! Well aprt fro the date - maybe the guy heard that it was "up to" the 22nd - if it really starts on Friday they will have to hold back and roll out 1/3rd of it each day - it will be gone in minutes!

    ( I happened to be in LIDL at 10.30 this morning and couldn't see any sign (literally) of the Tayto for €2. I asked the Polish chap stocking the shelves and he said they were gone by 8.30 - and jokingly that they had to mop up the blood from the aisle afterwards.)

    Was in Aldi yesterday and overheard a store manager having an impromptu meeting with three staff in the aisles talking about the Prosecco offer like they were about to go into war :D
    Also heard him mention that they would be strict on the 2 per person limit

    I was in Aldi this morning at about 10.00, and the atmosphere was so tense -there were loads of people patrolling the aisles with amost empty trollies, all eyeballing each other suspiciously :)

    I mentioned the offer to the cashier when I was leaving and she looked really hunted and told me that it would only be put out at 10:30. I said I wasn't actually looking to get any, I'd just heard there was a bit of a rush on about it and she laughed and said she'd had people coming looking for it as soon as the shop opened at 9 and getting angry because they wouldn't be putting out until it could be sold.

    Popped into my local shortly before half ten to pick up the turkey & ham and it was already out in a large pile in the middle of the drinks aisle. More than enough to meet demand. No mad scrum for it. Grabbed two bottles.

    I wonder will they go ahead with this offer this year at all now with the current situation?

    I doubt it seeing as they just released their 'Amazing Grocery Six' last week, would they also do the Secret Six as well? Time will tell

    They're about half the size of the ones that sell for about €1.50 each in various supermarkets.

    Anyone know where in the sho they stack these offers? So they have a specific spot or are they just in the spot where you’d find coffee or drinks for example?

    worth noting these are 600g logs not the usual 1kg so only 60% of a log really

    It's still worth 50 cents a log.

    There's always someone waiting to slam an offer on here. If you can get 600gm logs for 50 cents elsewhere good luck to you on that mission.

    There seems to be alot of confusion this year regarding the offer. The offer remains as long as stocks remain and most Aldi stores seem to have huge volumes of stocks this year , the firelog offer from Thurs is still available in most stores. I think an increase in volumes this year coupled with poor advertising of the offer means that stocks should be available much longer. I was in a store last night that still had huge volumes of the 7 up and the logs. The fact that Lidl do their offers for 1 day only is adding to the confusion.

    A manager in my local ALDI told me that there was Prosecco in the secret 6 - ie 2 for the. price of 1.
    I don't see it in the list, and I didn't pay attention to what day he said it would be.

    The 23rd is possible, unlikely though.
    The Secret Six promotion is available in all Republic of Ireland Aldi stores, commencing on Thursday the 17th December to Tuesday 22nd December.
