Wish they had a better selection of lights this time around. Their previous Moon & Lezyne knock offs were great.

why not just try them on in the shop? granted, shorts may be an issue but the rest i reckon you could get away with

I do, and that's how I find that they don't fit.

Yes the knock offs were great . Nothing to entice me at all these days to be honest

I bought a small bottle of oil with a pipette top from their bike promo and it has a cheap but alluring perfume smell.

I bought some oil, GT85 and socks. Didn’t like the gloves. Got home, stuck them in the cupboard, noticed another bag. “What’s in here”, I wondered... the same oil, GT85 and socks from last year.....

Not cycle products but notice in their next batch of special buys are hoodies and T shirts with the Aldi logo on.

I know people like to wear things with Nike, Pierre Cardin etc on but are people really going to go out in an Aldi hoodie?

I'd probably prefer the Aldi label over Nike or Pierre Cardin tbh.

And people are odd -

Nothing new. Ive seen all sorts of goods from lidl and aldi turn up on ebay at marked up prices, although maybe not as extreme as £14 trainers for £450.

I've seen people strolling along the road enjoying a 99 while advertising insurance companies, global beer companies, airlines, car manufacturers, online gambling dens, tyres, phone networks on their shirt.

I regularly wear Aldi branded clothing... i'm one of those 'influencer' types so they actually pay me to do it

Yes, inverse snobbery. There was a trend amongst middle Englanders during and after the financial crisis to be seen bringing shopping home in Aldi bags.

Frugality became cool.

...and making good use when they've unpacked the shopping...

Anyone bought their lights this time around?
