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.
It's great for both dads and grandads and if you're strapped for cash, it's one you won't want to miss.
But you'll need to set your alarm if you want to nab these, as like all Specialbuys, they are sure to sell out fast.
You'll find them in middle aisles nationwide, but once they're gone, they're gone.

Fresh plans for £40m Hull park-and-ride to be submitted
Revised plans for a £40m park-and-ride site north of Hull will be submitted "in the coming weeks", a developer has initial proposal for the scheme, at the Dunswell roundabout of the A1079 near Kingswood, was submitted to East Riding of Yorkshire Council (ERYC) by Ashcourt Group last it was withdrawn in March after concerns were raised about noise and light pollution, retail outlets and a bus Stathers, the head of external affairs at Ashcourt Group, said: "The team has taken on board concerns raised by residents and this scheme will lead to much reduced traffic congestion and pollution along Beverley Road into Hull." "We hope to have the revised plans ready for submission by mid-summer," he site, which is just outside the city boundary, is designated for a park-and-ride in ERYC's local plan. The initial proposal included space for 500 vehicles, a petrol station, car wash and drive-through residents lodged objections, saying they feared the development would "cause chaos" and be "unworkable". 'Ghastly' development In February, Hull City Council (HCC) wrote to ERYC to object to the inclusion of a bus depot, three drive-through restaurants and a petrol said that while it shared an "aspiration" for a park-and-ride, there were already restaurant facilities a separate letter of objection, three Hull city councillors, including the authority's leader Mike Ross, described the proposal as a "ghastly, oversized development".Ashcourt Group, a Hull-based construction company, said the fresh proposal would represent "one of the largest traffic management and infrastructure improvements to be undertaken in the region for decades" and would be "entirely funded" by private developer claimed it would provide "faster" transport links between Hull and Beverley and the two local hospitals, Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill in Cottingham. 'Reduced congestion' The new proposal would still include food and retail spaces as Ashcourt said it believed there was "clear demand for such outlets in this area".Mr Stathers added: "Our proposal is very much about getting people out of cars and into energy efficient buses, reducing congestion and pollution."At the same time it will protect and enhance public transport services across many key areas of Hull and East Yorkshire."The BBC understands the updated proposal will be submitted to the council by the end of July.

Keir Starmer attacks ‘staggering' SNP move to block £11m investment
Sir Keir Starmer has accused the SNP of choking off opportunities for young Scots by banning taxpayer support for munitions projects. The prime minister claimed it was 'staggering' that the nationalist government was 'blocking' an £11 million private investment from Rolls-Royce in the creation of a specialist welding centre on the basis that it could be used to support the building of Royal Navy submarines. John Swinney, the first minister, rejected accusations on Wednesday that he was indulging in 'student union' politics and insisted that the 'longstanding' position of the SNP — which is not to use public money to support the creation of weapons — would not change. It emerged at the weekend that a plan to create a state-of-the-art welding skills centre, part of a wider project aimed at reviving Scottish shipbuilding, faced being cancelled after Scottish Enterprise refused to provide a £2.5 million grant, branding the centre a 'munitions' project. The UK government said it would provide the funding instead, with Labour claiming the SNP's 'ill-informed dogma' was costing young people and the Scottish economy. At prime minister's questions, Starmer accused the SNP of 'blocking opportunities' for young people while also attacking cuts to college budgets in Scotland. An independent report last year found that real-terms funding for the sector had been cut by 17 per cent since 2021. 'At a time of global conflict, it is staggering that the SNP policy is to block an £11 million investment for a new national welding centre on the Clyde,' Starmer said. 'I was there earlier this week. I saw the huge potential for apprenticeships, for job opportunities and for young people. I support it, they block it. 'Despite the highest funding settlement in the history of devolution, they're cutting college budgets, they're blocking opportunities, they have no plan for Scotland's future.' SNP ministers have said their agencies have a longstanding policy that public money should not support 'the manufacture of munitions'. They have argued that the welding skills centre is ineligible for funding due to links with an attack submarine programme. However, the Scottish government-owned shipyard, Ferguson Marine, has taken on work supporting the construction of Royal Navy frigates. Meanwhile, Swinney has also faced criticism for turning down a briefing with the UK government about the defence review and instead going campaigning for the SNP in the Hamilton, Larkhall & Stonehouse by-election. 'We have a longstanding policy that we don't use public expenditure to support the manufacture of munitions, and that's been a policy position that has been well set out and well understood within parliament for many years,' Swinney said. 'As would be expected, it's been applied in this case in the proper fashion. We do not support the use of public expenditure to support the manufacture of munitions. It's a very clear and a distinctive position.' However, Stephen Kerr, a Scottish Tory MSP, claimed that the position could not be reconciled with the SNP 's claim to support the defence industry and causes such as providing more backing to Ukraine. 'This is not a serious policy,' Kerr said. 'It is posturing, bound up in the pacifistic ideology that requires ignoring the hard realities of an increasingly dangerous world.' Meanwhile, Anas Sarwar, the Scottish Labour leader, said Swinney's position on the issue was 'stupid and dangerous'. He told journalists: 'I think you should ask John Swinney, quite clearly, whether he wants to live in the real world or if he thinks he's a university student in the debating chamber. 'If he says there's no public money going towards munitions, are we going to Uber the missiles in? Are we going to Deliveroo the equipment if someone tries to attack us? 'It is completely and utterly incoherent, frankly stupid and dangerous, and it demonstrates why he's not fit to lead our country.'

Dave Brailsford steps back at Man United in Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos reshuffle
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is planning a major reshuffle that will lead to Sir Dave Brailsford reducing his commitment to Manchester United to return to his director of sport role for Ineos and Geraint Thomas taking a senior leadership position at the professional cycling team when he retires as a rider at the end of this season. Brailsford stood down as team principal of Ineos Grenadiers when Ratcliffe purchased his minority stake in Manchester United and took charge of football operations, and has dedicated more than a year to implementing change at the Premier League club. The season has ended in frustration and disappointment, with United finishing the campaign under Ruben Amorim in 15th, their worst Premier League finish, and failing to secure a back-door route into the Champions League after losing the Europa League final to Tottenham Hotspur last month. Even so, 61-year-old Brailsford is credited by the British billionaire with overhauling the performance set-up at United, the £50million redevelopment of the club's Carrington training ground and drawing up his Mission 21 plan for a 21st league title and a first championship for the women's team. While Ratcliffe has reduced his overall investment in sport over the past few months, terminating his sponsorship of the All Blacks and an advertising deal with Tottenham while also ending his pursuit of the America's Cup, he remains committed to his cycling team, even if they too hope to secure a new joint-sponsor in another petrochemicals firm, TotalEnergies. The failure of United to secure European football next season also means the French club comes out of trust — originally placed there to comply with Uefa ownership rules — and returns to being the responsibility of the Ineos Sport's team. Brailsford leads that unit and Ratcliffe wants him to return to his former role so that he can oversee that transition as well as revive some of his focus on cycling by supporting the Ineos Grenadiers management team of John Allert, the chief executive, and performance director Scott Drawer. The former British Cycling boss will play a role in helping Thomas make the transition from athlete to team management. Ratcliffe is known to be an admirer of the 39-year-old, having got to know him well as fellow residents in Monaco. He sees the 2018 Tour de France winner and double Olympic champion, who has announced he will retire after the Tour of Britain in September, as leadership material and wants Brailsford to help groom him for such a role. In an interview with Cycling News during the recent Giro d'Italia, Drawer said: 'We'd be crazy not to think about Geraint being part of the team in the future. Geraint's got unique skills that we don't have. We'd like to tap into what Geraint knows. He's got huge respect and credibility in the sport. He's the current team captain and plays a big role in that.'
