SAVVY SHOPPER Aldi is selling a handy gadget that's £70 cheaper than Karcher perfect for getting your garden ready for summer
ALDI is selling a must-have garden gadget that's just under £70 cheaper than a similar one from top brand Karcher – and it's ideal for sprucing up your patio ahead of summer.
The FERREX Small Pressure Washer is landing as part of the supermarket's latest Specialbuy range – and it'll only set you back £49.99.

Pressure washers are brilliant for blasting away dirt, moss and grime from patios, garden furniture, decking and driveways in seconds – and this bargain bit of kit really delivers.
It comes with a 1400W motor and pumps out up to 110 bar of pressure – more than enough to tackle stubborn stains outdoors.
It comes with a three meter high-pressure hose, spray gun, cleaning lance with extension and a quick-connect system for easily switching attachments.
Weighing in at just 5kg, it's light enough for moving around the garden and easy to stash away thanks to its integrated cable and hose holder.

The gadget goes on sale from Thursday, June 5 – online and in stores – but like all Aldi Specialbuys, once they're gone, they're gone.
And it's a proper steal compared to pricier rivals.
For example, the Kärcher K2 Power Control Home Pressure Washer – with similar specs – will set you back £119 at B&Q, saving you just under £70 if you opt for the Aldi version.
The Karcher washer has similar specs, including a 110 bar pressure and patio cleaning capability, but comes with a much heftier price tag.

Aldi's Specialbuys have built a cult following for delivering top value across garden gear, kitchen gadgets and more – and this latest deal is no exception.

Previous garden sales
Recently, shoppers were also flocking to Aldi after it dropped its latest garden must-haves — with prices starting from just £2.79.
Elsewhere, B&M released a number of garden furniture pieces — including a Sienna double egg chair for £250 and a Paris 2-Seater Pod Chair also priced at £250.
Argos has also slashed prices on outdoor and DIY essentials with discounts of up to £60.
And earlier this year, Wilko dropped prices on patio sets, lounge chairs and bistro sets ahead of summer.

In February, Dunelm had a huge clearance sale with discounts of up to 75% on hundreds of items.
And most homeware stores hold sales in the summer.
Last summer, Dobbies launched a huge sale with prices slashed by up to 50% on garden furniture, plants, and homeware.
How to save money when shopping at Aldi
Unlike other major grocers, Aldi does not have a rewards or point card system but that does not mean you cannot save on your shop.

Every week the store releases a list of special buys, which are unique bargain products you find online at Aldi and in store.
The store releases a fresh range of deals every Thursday and Sunday, so be sure to check regularly to see what's new.
Meanwhile, the store also regularly sells fruit and vegetables at highly discounted prices, as part of its 'super six' deal.
It also does weekly saving offers on typically pricey items such as meat and fish.

Plus, it's worth keeping an eye out for products with red stickers on them.
These are added to items that have been reduced due to them being close to their best before date or slightly damaged.
The best time to get these reduced products is towards the end of the day, when you can get discounts worth up to 75%.

Birmingham brothers sign Aldi sauce deal after Dragons' Den win

Two brothers who began making homemade sauce in their mother's kitchen have secured a deal with a supermarket giant. Jayden and Brendan Manders, from Quinton, Birmingham, started their sauce empire with just £100 each before they secured a £90,000 investment from Dragons' Den star Emma Grede. From Sunday, Lumberjaxe sauce was made available in Aldi nationwide. Reacting to the news Brendan, said: "It's a bit surreal. If someone told us last year we'd be in Aldi stores, we'd have laughed."Jayden added: "I feel like the luckiest man. We went there [Dragons' Den] and poured our hearts out and as you can see." He added: "We're just two Brummie lads, literally from a council estate, who built their way up."We had £100 each and we tried to go on TV for £90,000 - it's a bit of a jump isn't it? "We got the investment from Emma Grede and she's been the loveliest, loveliest person to have around our business. It's exactly what we needed."Julie Ashfield, chief commercial officer at Aldi UK, said: "At Aldi, we love to champion growing UK businesses. "Brendan and Jayden's story is truly inspiring, and the sauces are delicious, so we can't wait to bring this fantastic product to our shoppers."

RETAIL PAIN IN 2025 The British Retail Consortium has predicted that the Treasury's hike to employer NICs will cost the retail sector £2.3billion. The Centre for Retail Research (CRR) has also warned that around 17,350 retail sites are expected to shut down this year. It comes on the back of a tough 2024 when 13,000 shops closed their doors for good, already a 28% increase on the previous year. Professor Joshua Bamfield, director of the CRR said: "The results for 2024 show that although the outcomes for store closures overall were not as poor as in either 2020 or 2022, they are still disconcerting, with worse set to come in 2025." Professor Bamfield has also warned of a bleak outlook for 2025, predicting that as many as 202,000 jobs could be lost in the sector. "By increasing both the costs of running stores and the costs on each consumer's household it is highly likely that we will see retail job losses eclipse the height of the pandemic in 2020."
