    The Aldi £3.99 polarising sunglasses are back in stock - different designs to last year.

    Absolute bargain and great if your car windscreen reflects the top of the dashboard.

    BUCKLERS RESERVE is a Trade Mark registered to and owned by ALDI ;)

    The issues I have with this is that we can't easily find the source of the meat. Obviously they're buying it in and then labelling it under their own brand. Chances are it's the same source as Kezie and one or two other UK outlets for exotic meats. Would be nice to know though.

    no the brand is Bucklers reserve. and they were Buffalo burgers not venison (sorry - my memory isn't what it used to be!). OH loved those too! We shall be buying those or the Wagyu beef burgers now - ordinary quarter pounders taste like poor copies so OH says. I still haven't tried them myself, but plan to next week (IF they still have them in stock - you all know what Aldi are like). I really dislike ordinary burgers but OH assures me that these are much different.

    The "posh" brown loaves in Lidl and Aldi are now all 85p for a large loaf. The shelf-edge label still says 99p in my Aldi, though 85p is what is charged at the till.

    The mini Bavarian flavoured Brie has also made a re-appearance at my local Aldi.

    The new Lemon flavour Greek yoghurt is to die for! @ 75p it is amazing as it would be at least £1.50 a pot in 'normal' shops. They also do a coconut flavour too.
