Has someone been watching 8 out of ten cats does countdown with the £10 leaf blower?
Excellent thread! I bought an amazing bouncy castle for my boys that cost £15 - great value but takes about 3 hours to manually blow it up, if only they'd sell a cheap electric pump too!
I also got an inspection camera for £70 (about half price of the others I was looking at) great for helping getting pipework and cables under floorboards but only been used for bogey hunting by anyone who's asked to borrow it.

I got myself a fishing fleece, hat, gloves and bait. Was well pleased. I love Aldi. They do some excellent meat as well.

No experience of Aldi but a big fan of Lidl for food shopping and their "I didn't know I needed one until I saw it..." offers.

Seriously? We've started using the one in lewes the last few months. We can,buy nearly a months shopping barring milk, bread and veg for just over £100. It's amazing.
I've found that the tills don't have enough room past the scanner for your stuff and the checkout staff can pass the items through at WARP SPEED. So quick that it takes the pair of us to both bag up simultaneously and so quick we can't separate frozen, jars, fresh stuff properly!
I find the queues quicker than the likes of tesco, Asda etc.

I like the wheelbarrow wheel in Aldi for £8.
That would please Notts County fans I'm sure.

I'm a recent convert to the Aldi in Enfield; meat and wine is excellent. Only minor issue is why the packing areas at the tills are so small. I don't really get this as there is plenty of space to make them bigger.

There is a Lidl in Canterbury. I got my clothes drying rack there.
Just checked online and Tesco and John Lewis sell the concatina racks, but these are crap. My Lidl one is flat, with slightly elevated extendable ends. Magic.
Aside from that, I do tend to feel a bit unclean shopping in Lidl, on the grounds that I'm a Massive Snob

Aldi & Lidl are German. The Germans don't sell rubbish.

Do you go there on your days out?
The tills are small and the staff trained to scan at "warp" speed so that you just put everything back in the trolley and bag on the shelves after the till or at your car.

Outstanding electric pencil sharpener for a fiver. A world class piece of kit.
Curse you autocorrect.
