A savvy shopper recently shared a find from the popular bargain supermarket, spotting new garden pots now in stock.

She posted the items on Facebook with the caption: “Balcony plant pots. 75p Aldi.”

Aldi fans hoping to freshen up their gardens will need to visit their nearest store, as the pots aren’t available online.

Shoppers can find the 75p bargains in the popular middle aisle.

The Facebook post received several, however, one user admitted that she couldn’t locate the pots at her Aldi branch.

She wrote: “Didn’t have any in mine if you see some please grab a couple.”

Recently, Aldi has stocked up their middle aisle up and down the country with fan-favourite beauty products.

Shoppers raced to fill up their trolleys with a new Sol de Janeiro dupe for only £2.99 – and it’s “perfect for holidays”.

Tropical Essence

Eagle-eyed shoppers noticed that the discounter’s Tropical Essence body mists are a dupe of the popular Sol de Janeiro perfumes.

But while the originals retail at around £24, Aldi’s dupes are a whopping £21.01 less.

A keen shopper spied the item in their local store and was thrilled at the price.

Posting the find to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK  Facebook group, they said: “Aldi dupes of the Sol di Janeiro sprays £2.99 each! Ipswich Aldi.”

They shared a photo of their newly purchased fragrances.

Fellow bargain hunters were quick to comment on the post and make plans to head to their nearest Aldi to bag them.

One wrote: “I’ll keep a look out!”

Another said: “I need to go to Aldi.”

While a third described them as “perfect for holidays”.

The popular discount chain also had shoppers rushing to buy a bargain slushie machine ideal for making DIY summer cocktails.

Ice Lattes

Aldi slashed the price of its Ambiano frozen drinks maker from £24.99 to £12.50 – a 50% discount.

A savvy customer posted the bargain item to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK  Facebook group.

They said: “Aldi Runcorn £12.50. It does a good slushie too.”

Fellow bargain hunters were quick to comment on the post and make plans to head to their nearest Aldi to bag one.

One wrote: “I’ve got one and make ice lattes with mine.”

Another said: “This is a great price.”

A third commented: “I need this!!”

A fourth posted: “We put ice pops in ours. They are really good.”

Aldi describes the ice maker as “perfect for making slushies, iced lattes, punch and cocktails”.

It has two settings – fine and coarse – and has a safety locking lid.

It’s listed for £24.99 on the website, but unfortunately, you won’t be able to buy it online but it is available in stores – or you can view it on the website.

It comes after shoppers rave about a brilliant big-brand cooking essential scanning at tills for just £39.

And a new “fantastic” chair currently scanning for less than £2 could be yours this summer.

How to bag a bargain

SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain…

Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.

Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.

Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.

Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.

Sign up to mailing lists and you’ll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.

When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.

Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.

Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.

And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you’ll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
