‘I'm shopping all my Christmas presents from Aldi's centre aisle‘
If you love the thrill of a bargain, you’re probably well acquainted with Aldi’s centre aisle and its ever-changing treasures… We’re exactly the same.
There are so many handy gadgets and gizmos (and at such great prices) that it’s basically rude not to take a quick peek when you’re doing the weekly shop.
Typically, Aldi releases its buys in themes, and this month you can expect kids toys, beauty products, and lots of things to help you get ready for the New Year including fitness equipment and decluttering essentials.
Just remember that all Aldi Specialbuys are limited, so once they’re gone, they’re gone and another product will fill its place.
Popular Specialbuys such as heated clothes airers and children’s toys, have sold out within days in the past, so if you like the look of something, you need to act quickly!
That’s why we’ve rounded up our favourite products coming up this month, to ensure you don’t miss out. Keep checking in to see what’s hitting the stores and read on for more information about the buys we have our eye on.
What Specialbuys can you shop in the middle Aisle of Aldi?
In short, pretty much everything. And that’s part of what makes shopping the middle aisle so exciting. From kitchen appliances and pet supplies to baby essentials and beauty products, we’ve seen everything, so it’s worth keeping an eye on this page if you don’t regularly shop in store.
The central aisle is refreshed every Thursday and Sunday so there are always new deals to discover. We’ll update this page regularly to bring you our favourite picks. *Runs to Aldi*
5-in-1 Hair Styler
In store: 28th November
Perhaps the most perfect gift for any beauty lover or fashionista is this five-in-one hair styler which comes with two brushes and auto air curling barrels for achieving salon-worthy curls. It has built-in ionic technology to battle frizz while the three heat settings are designed to keep your hair happy, shiny and healthy.
Mega Bluey
In store: 28th November
Any child obsessed with the animated show, Bluey, will love one of these. The soft toy stands at 32 inches tall, making it the perfect size to become your little one’s favourite sidekick. Whether they use it for play time or for cuddles at bedtime, this Bluey toy will be a memorable Christmas gift.
Doll House
In store: 28th November
Resembling Barbie’s Dream House, this playset is a must-have. There’s a built-in kitchen, bathroom, dining room and rooftop area across the two floors, which means there’s plenty of space for imaginative and creative play with their favourite Barbie.
Note, there aren’t any dolls included with the house, so you’ll need to buy Barbie separately.
Black Air Fryer
In store: 18th November
If you haven't joined the air fryer craze yet, now's your chance as you can grab one for less than £20 in the centre aisle. It's only 1.7-litres so you won't fit a family meal inside but it's perfect for crisping up a few portions of chips or experimenting with air frying before investing in a larger model.
We don't think these will be in stock long so act fast!
Henry vacuum
In store: 1st December
We love a vacuum cleaner here at Good Housekeeping, so couldn’t help but include this mini version of Henry and Hetty in our round up. And yes, it actually works as a vacuum so your little helper can contribute to some of the household chores (a genius idea if you ask us!). It’s only strong enough to pick up small bits of paper but it comes with all the nozzle accessories needed to keep them entertained. Just note, you’ll need to purchase four C-batteries as they aren’t included.
Two Piece Roasting Trays
In store: 5th December
The big Christmas feast is coming so it’s a smart idea to stock up on kitchen essentials and cookware. This set includes one large tray (40 x 28 x 7cm) and one medium tray (35 x 25 x 6.1cm). Both are oven safe up to 220C and covered with a non-stick coating. We can almost picture our roasties and pigs in blankets cooking away…
12 Piece Dinner Set
In store: 5th December
Speaking of Christmas dinner, have you got enough crockery for all the guests coming round on Christmas day? If no, head to Aldi. This beautifully festive set contains four plates, four side plates, and four pasta bowls and ticks the boxes for being microwave and dishwasher safe. Sounds ideal to us.
Hidden Artist Puzzle
In store: 5th December
We don’t know about you, but jigsaw puzzles are the perfect activity for Twixtmas – that time between Christmas and New Year where all you do is snack and watch great TV. Or, take a break from your screens and get cracking on one of these puzzles – once complete, there’s 101 items to find in the picture, making it a fun family activity.
Balance Bike
In store: 28th November
Suitable for ages two and above, this balance bike will help them learn the basics without the need for stabilisers. There’s a pink unicorn or a green crocodile design, and both are sure to elicit squeals of joy when found under the Christmas tree.
Character Head Cruiser
In store: 1st December
If you’re trying to keep your Christmas spending down this year, this mini scooter is an excellent value buy that matches the balance bike above. Buying this set will certainly go down a treat with any kids aged two and up. The scooter is available in a pink unicorn design or as a green dinosaur and features an adjustable handlebar to make it last a few growth spurts.
Winter Figure Candle
In store: 5th December
Involved in a Secret Santa and have no idea what to buy? Head to Aldi. This Specialbuy candle is perfectly festive while the neutral tones will fit with any interior aesthetic. It is unscented which is a shame, but for under £5, we can’t complain.
Play Doh Assortment
In store: 5th December
This Play Doh kit really proves that the Centre of Aldi is the place to do your Christmas shopping this year. There’s a range of sets to choose from, including Crazy Cuts, Doctor Drill ‘n’ Fill, Fun Factory, Groom & Vet Set and Ice Cream Playset, so there really is something to keep every creative child busy over the festive season.
