    Mad isn't it, you go in for a 4 pinter of milk and come out with a socket set, some step ladders and a kite, a bit like B&M and Home Bargains, you simply don't go to these shops with a shopping list, the shop themselves tell you what to buy ha ha

    We bought our grandson's high chair from the Aldi centre aisle. Ten quid. It's been brilliant, used regularly and still in perfect condition. Could have easily paid over ten times that amount for similar ones that would have been no better. I honestly don't know how they make a profit.

    When the few staff are around you have to flatten yourself against the shelves as they come crashing through with their huge trollies.
    Which they then leave splayed across the aisles.
