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.
Designed to keep you cool and comfy, the £10.99 duvet features a micro-fine cover that cleverly regulates moisture and body temperature.
It's ideal for double beds, with a soft and fluffy polyester filling that still feels cosy without the stifling heat
The bargain supermarket is also selling a Peppa Pig Kids' Ride-On Suitcase this summer.
Kids can be pulled along, ride, and play with this major branded suitcase – perfect for keeping them entertained at the airport.
The case has been described as sturdy and comes with a lockable closure.
The interior includes an extra pocket for added storage and a cross-strap to keep items secure.
Shoppers picking up the £25 case will be pleased to know it comes with a three-year warranty.

Dyson pet-hair vacuum with 'phenomenal suction power' now £100 off on Amazon
"This machine is a game changer. The suction, which can be adjusted, is phenomenal." Investing in the right hoover is an important choice for any household, especially those with pets. Unreliable vacuums are often easily broken, and usually don't do a good job at tackling pesky pet hair in the first place. But a top-rated hoover from winning brand Dyson is currently on a very generous offer on Amazon. Normally retailing at a pricy £279.99, the Dyson Ball Animal UP32 Vacuum Cleaner is currently on a 36 per cent discount, with a much lower price tag of £179.99. The corded vacuum can be used on all floor types, and has an impressive 4.3 star rating on Amazon out of a possible five. The gadget has been specifically engineered for homes with pets, and its powerful suction automatically de-tangles hair to prevent any jams in the vacuum. With a 60 per cent bigger bin than previous model the Ball Animal 2, it allows users to clean larger surface areas. While this hoover is not cordless, its 50-foot wire allows for unlimited cleaning, according to its product description. This powerful electric device uses 120 Volts and 700 watts to ensure a powerful full-house clean. Shark Lift-Away Anti Hair Wrap Corded Pet Vacuum Cleaner on Argos for a pricier £300, although it does come with a five-year warranty. Dyson Ball Animal UP32 Vacuum Cleaner £279.99 £179.99 Amazon Shop Product Description Shoppers looking for a more budget-friendly vacuum may opt for the Bush Bagless Cylinder Pet Corded Vacuum Cleaner, currently on a 20 per cent discount for just £70. But the Dyson option on Amazon is raking in some glowing reviews. One pleased shopper said: "I've tried many vacuum cleaners, but this one stands out. From the moment I opened the box, I could see the quality and care that went into making it. Its design is well-built, easy to assemble, and super user-friendly, making it a high-end product. "What impressed me is how simple it is to use. The vacuum worked perfectly, making my daily cleaning routine so much smoother. It also arrived quickly and was packed well. "After using it, I can honestly say this vacuum lives up to its promises. The suction power is fantastic, and compared to my old vacuum, this one is much lighter. Moving around while cleaning is easy, and I don't feel like dragging something heavy with me." But a less happy shopper said: "Dyson sent a new beater vacuum is junk. I have the beater head now falling off. I am past my return option as it is only 30 days. I should have ask for my money back and returned instead of having dyson send me a new head. "I am going to take this junk to a vacuum store and see if I am able to get a few dollars toward a different brand. Unless you enjoy constantly working on your vacuum do not buy. Yet another satisfied customer said: "Well, what can I say? This machine is a game changer. The suction, which can be adjusted, is phenomenal. It also has a head that is perfect for stairs that has brushes that pick up everything. I would highly recommend it." The Dyson vacuum can be purchased here. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

I tried 52 Lidl wines. These are the best bottles to buy this summer
Lidl's wine range consists of a permanent core offering of some 150 different wines, layered with a carousel of Wine Tour wines that change each month. Typically, each Wine Tour will consist of around 16 different wines although not all of these are ranged to every store. If you are pitching up to a Lidl branch (which number over 980) with no recommendations or personal favourites to hand, my advice is to head straight for the Wine Tour bottles. The set arriving in store this month (late June) is relatively weak (sod's law, just as I write about them), but I usually find these offer a higher hit rate than the core range. Naturally there are exceptions, but wines in the core range are often quite sweet, and/or subjected to an oak treatment (sometimes from chips or staves – the narrow planks of wood used to construct barrels – I'd guess, from tasting them) that gives them a gloopy, confected vanilla taste. However, the Wine Tour range usually have more varietal personality and taste, well, more like true wines. Skip to: Lidl's best core wines – sparkling Lidl's best core wines – rosés Lidl's best core wines – whites Lidl's best core wines – reds Lidl's best Wine Tour wines How I tasted Why you can trust us Another tip is to look for the scores given by Master of Wine Richard Bampfield who works for Lidl as a consultant. You can see some of these in store and some online. Bampfield gave good scores to two of the incoming (from June 26) Wine Tour wines that were not available for me to taste when I wrote this: the Cuvée de Brieu Sauvignon Blanc (£8.49) and the Cuvée de Brieu Syrah (also £8.49). I have been tasting Lidl's wines and looking at Richard Bampfield's scores and listening to his recommendations from the range for years, and have come to view him as a principled guide whose judgment can be trusted. 'Richard is a safeguard for us,' according to Lidl's PR Hannah Steel. 'He scores wines and if they are not performing well we might go back to the supplier.' Bampfield says Lidl put him under no pressure to give good scores; note that if a wine scores poorly, the score is not used. Lidl's budget rival Aldi has a couple of wines that have achieved cult status amongst middle-class shoppers (the Crémant du Jura and the Veuve Monsigny Champagne). Lidl doesn't quite have any equivalents, although its Comte de Senneval Champagne (£13.99) does, deservedly, have a strong following.

Mum urges parents to nab Aldi paddling pool that's the ‘easiest' to put up so you're set up for the weekend sunshine
A MUM has urged parents to head to their local Aldi before the weekend arrives. Andrea Kemp, from the UK, took to social media to show off her bargain buy that was essential for the summer months. 2 The mother and grandma shared a picture of the paddling pool she had purchased from the budget-friendly store last week. The large paddling pool looked perfect for having a dip in this weekend where the weather should reach 30°C again. It measures over 9ft long and 5.5ft wide, meaning there's plenty of space for toys as well to keep the kiddos entertained. Andrea wrote: "Bought this from Aldi for my grandson's birthday, got to say it's the easiest paddling pool I've had to put up and a bargain, it takes an hour and a half to fill up. "We've had so much fun over the weekend with it." The happy gran revealed she paid just £50 for the paddling pool which was 50cm in height. While it was easy to put up thanks to its foldable sides that collapse down and up, Andrea warned it was heavier than it looked. "The only thing is it's really heavy and it takes two people to carry to where you want to put it up and to fold it back and put it back away in its box as extremely heavy," she added. Despite that Andrea and her grandchildren were loving the pool for the hot summer days. Aldi bosses say: "Featuring foldable sides that allow users to change the size, it means shoppers can create a mini splash zone for toddlers or go full-size for family fun, and anything in between! My dream pool was £40,000 so I DIYd my own 18ft version in February all for this summer heatwave - it's saved me £37,000 "It simply folds away when the day is done for easy storage. It's the ultimate solution for homes where space is tight but summer fun is non-negotiable." Like with most Aldi Specialbuys, once it's gone, it's gone, so make sure you head to your local store now. Others who bought the pool were quick to confirm just how good it was on the Facebook group, Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK. One person wrote: "We got the same one it's absolutely fantastic well worth the money out of all the pools we have bought over the years this is by far the best and easiest. "I agree it is very heavy though." Swimming safety advice Experts have revealed some of their top advice for both adults and kids heading to the water this summer: How to stay safe at the beach Gareth Morrison, Head of Water Safety at the RNLI said: "If you find yourself being swept out to sea in a rip, try to relax and float until you are free from the rip and you can then swim to safety. "If you see someone else in danger, alert a lifeguard or call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard." How to stay safe at the swimming pool Tiny Hearts Education, former paramedic and CEO Nikki Jurcutz said: "Always put your little one in bright or contrasting colours that would be easy to find in an emergency. "It only takes 20 seconds to drown, little tips like this could save a life". An Auqabliss spokesperson added: ' Swimming toys such as noodles, dive rings, floaties and beach balls can be dangerous if left in the pool. ' Children may try to grab these from the pool's edge and fall in." How to stay safe at a waterpark Ali Beckman, Puddle Ducks Technical Director, said: "Never send a child down the slide on their own, not only are they going to be entering the slide pool area independently, they then have to exit the pool and wait for an adult. "And wave pools should be avoided until your child is really confident with water going over their faces and you know they are able to regain their feet independently. ' Waterparks are often very busy places and it's easy to lose sight of a child in a split second." "I have this, my little boys love it, took about 3 hours to fill up," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "Now that's what I'm talking about." Someone else added: "This one seems good."
