These include the ‘Crofton Salad Spinner,’ which claims to “make light work of rinsing and drying your greens,” according to the product description.
Shoppers have also been going wild over the ‘Crofton Mandolin’ that cuts your fruit and veg perfect every time.
Not only is it the ideal buy for anyone looking to cut down their food prep times, but it’s easy to use and clean, meaning you’ll spend less time in the kitchen and more time to relax.
And last but not least, Aldi gave a sneak peak into the ‘stone effect fire pit’ that will also be available for customers to get their hands on.
At just £59.99, it’s perfect for those chilly summer evenings and doubles up as a BBQ too.
The online product description reads: “Great for space saving gardens or just for that extra style effect.
“Just fill with wood or coal and that perfect outdoor dining experience.”
Alongside the video, the caption reads: “Salad spinning our way into the bank holiday weekend!
“Head in store now to make sure you’re prepped and ready!”
Best Items to Buy In Bulk in a Supermarket
Poppy Needham, a pricing pro at Approved Food, shared her top tips on what to bulk-buy.
Cupboard essentials
Toilet roll, kitchen paper, tissues, cleaning products and laundry supplies.
Polly explained: “A 24-pack of loo roll or a large bottle of washing-up liquid will save you money in the long run.”
Starchy staples
Rice, pasta, quinoa, oats, lentils, and beans have long shelf lives and form the basis of many meals.
“Buying larger bags of 5kg or more can significantly reduce the cost per gram,” said Poppy.
Chicken
Large packs of chicken, or even cheap frozen chicken breasts in bulk.
Tinned goods
From tinned tomatoes, tuna, salmon, any soup, and even fruits and veg.
Poppy commented: “Stock up when you see offers on multipacks or catering-size tins.
Misc
Cooking oils, spices, seasonings, tea, coffee, and drinks – these items keep their quality for a long time.
As for sweet treats, larger or sharing packs of chocolate are usually better value than single-serve portions.
The post has since gone viral, racking up over 41k views and several comments from super excited Aldi shoppers.
“The gonks actually look so cool..I’m going,” enthused one.
A second was desperate to know: “Will you be getting the Dyson air wrap dupes in store like they have in store in Europe??”
