Designer pet bed
Aldi is set to launch its own exclusive designer pet beds in August, as part of its returning Pet Range.
The new luxurious William Morris Pet Bed offers a "cosy spot for pampered pets to curl up and relax in style".
The pet bed will go on sale as part of Aldi's Specialbuys from August 14, priced at £19.99 (less than half the price compared to luxury brand Morris & Co), and will be available in a choice of colours - green, brown or blue.
Aldi said: "It combines the timeless charm of William Morris designs with ultimate comfort, adding a touch of elegance to any home."
The supermarket giant is also set to release a new Scented Plush Dog Toy (£2.99) as part of its August Pet Range.
Designed to avoid the unwelcome odours and "provide a stimulating play experience", the new toy comes in several different designs, including a turtle, octopus and starfish, as well as a range of scents such as rose, lavender, strawberry, or vanilla.

Cheapest UK supermarket: Lidl beats Aldi, Tesco and Asda
Which? found that Lidl had beaten Aldi for the first time since October 2023. The products included Hovis sliced bread, milk and cheese, and the consumer experts checked prices at eight of the UK's biggest supermarkets throughout July. Supermarket average price for 76 items According to the Which? report, Lidl was the cheapest overall, beating rival discounter Aldi by £1.25 if you had a Lidl Plus card, or 85p if not. The third cheapest was Asda, which doesn't offer loyalty pricing in the same way as the others. Tesco without a loyalty card was still cheaper than shopping at Morrisons with one. Sainsbury's was running Nectar price promotions on 15 items, while Tesco had Clubcard prices on 16. Meanwhile, Morrisons had two More scheme discounts on items in our basket, and Lidl had three items on our list with a loyalty discount. Waitrose had no loyalty deals on the shopping list items. It was the most expensive supermarket again this month, averaging £170.91 – that's over £42 (or 33%) more than Lidl. UK inflation rose to a near 18-month high this summer as food prices shot up for the third month running. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said Consumer Prices Index inflation rose to 3.6% in June, up from 3.4% in May and the highest since January 2024. The increase was unexpected, with most economists forecasting inflation to remain unchanged at 3.4%. Chancellor Rachel Reeves says there's 'more to do' to help bring inflation down. She said: 'I know working people are still struggling with the cost of living.' 'There is more to do and I'm determined we deliver on our Plan for Change to put more money into people's pockets,' she added. Rob Mansfield, Independent Financial Advisor at Rootes Wealth Management, says: 'The cost of living crisis continues to bite. The rise in motor fuels was expected given the war in the Middle East and it shows how vulnerable our island is to events all over the globe. "Most people can't avoid these price rises, so they ask for higher wages, which can in turn drive up prices.' The figures come after gross domestic product (GDP) shrank by 0.1% in May, following a 0.3% fall in April and leading to fears of a contraction overall in the third quarter. Recommended reading: Borrowing costs are set to ease further as the Bank of England contends with stagnant growth and rising unemployment, experts have predicted. Most economists think the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will cut interest rates by 0.25 percentage points to 4% on Thursday. Interest rates have been steadily cut over the past year from a peak of 5.25%.

Morrisons cuts another 3,600 jobs
Morrisons slashed more than 3,600 jobs last year as the embattled retailer turned a profit for the first time since its 2021 private equity takeover. The group, which cut more than 8,800 jobs in 2023, saw its headcount fall from 104,819 to 101,144 in the 12 months to 27 October 2024, Companies House accounts published this week show. Cost cutting efforts helped Morrisons swing to a pre-tax profit of £2.1billion for 2024, having suffered losses of £919million and £1.3billion in the previous two years respectively. However, it saw group revenues slump from £18.3billion to £17billion for the year. Morrisons' market share has increasingly come under pressure from European discounters, with Lidl poised to take its spot as Britain's fifth largest supermarket after double-digit growth in the second quarter. The group has already lost its position as the fourth-biggest grocer in Britain to Aldi. Job losses in the year to the end of October 2024 were compounded in March when Morrisons announced it cut more than 350 jobs across its cafes, convenience stores, florists and fresh food counters following the introduction of higher labour costs in last year's Autumn Budget . Morrisons is now alone among the supermarket sector in pushing ahead with staff cuts, with Aldi, Tesco and Sainsbury's all announcing job losses since the Autumn Budget.
