Aldi brings back popular £5 uniform bundle this week
DISCOUNT supermarket Aldi has announced the return of its popular Back to School range and it’s set to hit stores next week
For a third year in a row, Aldi has frozen its uniform prices including the sought-after Back to School uniform bundle which remains at just £5.
Aldi Back to School bundle, £5
Parents can stock up on new school uniform must-haves from Aldi from 4 July as part of the chain’s midweek Specialbuys offer.
The affordable bundle includes everything needed for the start of the term in September at a very wallet-friendly price.
The £5 bundle is a fantastic deal for cash-strapped families dealing with the rising cost of living and it includes two polo shirts, one sweatshirt or cardigan, and the choice of a pair of trousers, a skirt, or cargo shorts.
The Aldi uniform bundle is available in multiple colourways in sizes ranging from four to 12 years old.
However, as with all Specialbuys, once they’re gone, they’re gone.
We predict eager parents will rush to snap up the early bird uniform deal ahead of the end-of-summer rush.
As the range is only available in-store, so you’ll have to act fast to avoid the sizes you want selling out.
This year Aldi has also introduced a new 12-month satisfaction guarantee for its school uniform items, giving parents extra peace of mind that items are built to last.
Along with the usual essential uniform clothing items to add to your shopping list, Aldi has also launched bargain-priced £9.99 football boots in several sizes for 2024.
Shoppers can also pick up a two-pack of crew-neck t-shirts, ideal for PE lessons for as little as £1.89.
Aldi has also increased its sizes for sensible everyday footwear,
Aldi’s children’s leather shoes (£6.99) are smart and durable, with an in-sole antibacterial finish to keep little feet fresh throughout the day.
All Aldi school uniform items are made using recycled polyesters and in partnership with Cotton Made in Africa (CmiA), ensuring the uniforms are designed to withstand the rigours of day-to-day school life.
When's the best time to shop at Aldi?
WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.
For reduced items – when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi’s 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found – if you’re quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: “All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates.”
That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.
Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store’s times by using the supermarket’s online shop finder tool.
For Specialbuys – Thursdays and Sundays
Specialbuys are Aldi’s weekly collection of items that it doesn’t normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store’s opening time.
You don’t have to head into stores to bag a Specialbuy, though.
They also go on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can pre-order them up to a week in advance.
As long as you spend at least £25, you’ll get the items delivered for free.
Remember: once they’re gone, they’re gone, so if there’s something you really want, visit as early as possible
