Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you’ve ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you’ll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi’s speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It’s all part of Aldi’s plan to be as efficient as possible – and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses “shelf-ready” packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
Shoppers can choose from Dinosaur, Christmas, Space, Sea Life, Tropical, Christmas Tree or Ho Ho Help – there are plenty of options.
As of tomorrow, Aldi fans will also be able to purchase Character Doll’s Stroller for under a tenner at £8.99 – which is the perfect pick for a stroll with your baby doll.
This delightful stroller is an ideal addition to your home and will encourage role-play and imagination – and customers can pick from Gabby’s Dollhouse, Bluey or Peppa Pig designs.
Another bargain find to look out for in the famous Middle Aisle is Disney Art Easel, which sells for £9.99 and is a must-have for the little artists in making who want to draw on the go.
Meanwhile, if your child has organised a sleepover and there’s not enough space in the bed, the brand-new Single Raised Airbed is sure to come in handy.
Retailing for £29.99, not only is the airbed easy to inflate in a mere two minutes, but the bargain find is also a budget-friendly version of Bestway Dreamair Premium Air Bed from Argos, which will set you back a staggering £80.
