A sandy towel can ruin a sunny beach day - Aldi has the solution.
Aldi's summer essential
Middle aisle magpies will be excited to know of the latest treasure which will release on July 6.
Aldi has launched its new Sand-Free Blanket in a bid to make sunbathing even more relaxing and at the same time affordable.
Available for just £6.99 the beach towel is sure to be a summer must-have, especially considering it is a fraction of the price of some of similar products in other high street retailers.
Holidaymakers have a choice between ocean blue and sunset orange to add a bit of colour to their packing list.
John Lewis have their version of the summer essential which is priced at £25 and comes in a range of colours.

John Lewis offer quick dry beach towels for £25 on their website
And yet, while both other similar quick-drying functionality the Aldi version is a whopping £18 cheaper.
How it works
To ensure hassle-free sunbathing for holidaymakers, Aldi's beach towel repels sand from its surface.
It does this through its micro hole technology which means coarse sand grains, which can irritate the skin and make sunbathing unbearable, can easily fall off the surface.

The towel comes with everything to handle whatever British weather throws at it.

Mirco hole technology means tiny grains of sand can just roll off
What's more the product is lightweight and compact and so it is easy to pack in a beach bag, and saves room for other holiday essentials in the ever-restrictive suitcases.
And in case of bad weather (it is the UK after all) the towel comes with pegs and a holes to ensure it stays in the same place.

More summer essentials to come
The middle aisle is always the place to find some absolute bargains, and Aldi have held nothing back this summer.
The supermarket has offered a solution to end the passive aggressive war of the holiday deck chair with its new Backpack Chair or Lounger.
For only £24.99, holidayers can either have a chair or sun lounger primed on their back in an easily transportable way.

Sun bathing in comfort has never been so easy
It is almost half the price of similar products available on Amazon and Decathlon.
So there's no need to squabble with other tourists for a sun lounger, as Aldi shoppers can now bring their own. And when the sun inevitably moves, so can you.
Aldi are also offering shoppers a 2-in-1 Beach Shade for an affordable £19.99.

Why have a parasol and a shelter when they can come in one easy beach shade
What may cost more than £40 at some retailers, costs less than half of that in Aldi and means protecting yourself from the elements is easy.
It comes equipped with eight pegs and two ropes for securing it in place and can fit two adults inside.
