The “aisle of dreams” in Aldi and Lidl is popular with shoppers keen to find a bargain on anything from gardening tools to clothing.
Whether it’s Aldi’s Specialbuys or Lidl’s Middle of Lidl, the latest offers are always worth checking out and there are some fantastic buys available.
That will be no different this week in mid-February, with a number of well-priced products to choose from.
Let's take a look at some of the items you can buy this week:
Aldi's Specialbuys
This week Aldi's Specialbuys section comes in with interesting items for cooking, astrology and fitness.
For example, if you want a more affordable version of a FitBit then Aldi can offer the Xplora Fitness Watch.
It features a bluetooth connected step tracker, heart rate monitor, smartphone alerts and choice of watch faces to suit your style.
Additionally, it is compatible with both iOS and Android devices and can be purchased at the Aldi website for £27.99.
If you're thinking ahead to the summer and want to get a barbecue in then Aldi can help with the Gardenline Kamado Ceramic Egg BBQ.
It is on the more expensive side of Aldi specialbuys at £399, but it has a number of useful features such as a powder coated steel hinge, chimney top, fire grate bring, stainless steel hinge springs and an ash door bring.
Plus, with two cooking grills you'll be able to host a decent number of people without it becoming too overwhelming.
Finally, for those who are enthusiastic about stargazing then the National Geographic 76/700 Telescope is a relatively inexpensive option to look up into the night sky.
On its Aldi website page it says it has enough maynifying power to see details of the Moon and some planets.
At £79.99 it could be the perfect gift to give to a budding astrologer who is just getting interested in the subject.
Lidl's Middle Aisle
Lidl's Middle Aisle items this week are focused on DIY tools and health gadgets, such as with the Parkside 65 Piece Socket Set for £34.99.
This includes two park plug sockets, sockets of various length, five hex keys, sliding T bars and extensions which all come in a high-quality case, plus it has a three-year warranty.
Additionally, to accompany that you could get the Parkside 12V Cordless Drill Driver Set for £59.99.
This is in a practical case and includes two rechargeable batteries, a 39 piece accessory set and one charger.
Meanwhile, moving away from DIY products, there is the Silvercrest Smart Pulse Oximeter.
For £19.99 it can be used to determine your blood oxygen saturation and heart rate and it has Bluetooth technology that transmits data so you can analyse your activity on a graph.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
