Posting to the Aldi UK Shoppers Facebook group, a customer shared their recent buy.
The comment read: "Happy with my middle isle item today looks lovely."
And attached two photographs of the item in question: Solar Spiral Light Multi Coloured.
Priced at £4.99 they make a lovely addition to the front of your house or in your garden.
Powered by solar light, they also cost nothing to run!
While the lights were recently stocked in stores, it seems they are not a new item according to other Aldi customers.
One commented: "They are lovely git some last year and they have worked all through winter and still going strong."
Some shoppers questioned the longevity of the product: "They are nice I had one lasted two years before it stopped working and went rusty."
Another replied: "I got barely 12 months out of mine."
And one shared some advice: "I always put put solar lights in the house under a lamp or light for two nights before putting outside I think it charges them up better and they last longer."
How do get the perfect summer glow up with Aldi's latest middle aisle beauty buys including a £4.99 serum that'll revitalise dull skin AND smells amazing
Over the next few days, there's loads of garden toys hitting Aldi stores.
Games up for grabs include a giant four-in-a-row scanning for £26.99 and Basketball Hoop for £39.99.
The bargain store will also sell a giant octopus sprinkler for £19.99.
The toy comes with four different sprinklers for extra fun and a hose adaptor so you can use it in your back garden.
Shoppers can also choose from a unicorn design.
A similar product is scanning for £25 quid at Argos so there is a chance to save over £5.
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.

Stunning Wag and Euro U21 reporter branded ‘queen of Europe' as she turns heads in revealing dress
BRUNETTE beauty Simona Leskovska is turning heads at the Under-21s Euros. The 30-year-old is working as a reporter at the tournament in her native Slovakia. 8 8 8 8 Simona has been spotted pitchside on presenting duties in a range of bold outfits at the Euros so far. Her 206,000 Instagram followers have been in for a treat as she wowed in a stylish white dress before Slovakia 's 1-0 defeat to Italy on Saturday. Simona, who has been called the "Queen of Europe" by fans, takes fans behind-the-scenes with several glam selfies of her from in and around the tunnel. Her partner, who is Napoli star Stanislav Lobotka, even joined her for a recent game. She posted a cute snap of the midfielder kissing her on the cheek alongside the caption: "We support each other in our work. I'm glad you're here." Lobotka played 32 times last season as he helped Napoli to the Serie A title. Before moving into the world of football reporting, Simona was a model. She was a finalist in the Miss Slovakia contest ten years ago. On her unique career path, Simona said in an interview last year: "I have been working for the Slovak Football Federation for three years, I started with the Under-21 team. "They were a good side, I got used to them, and last September I moved on to working with the first-team. "Some people told me that a woman from a modelling background would not make it in football. "But several years have since passed, those people who laughed at me now want to take pictures with me. "You may just see a pretty face, but I've been through a lot of hard times to get where I am now. "There are still a lot of goals I want to achieve. "I learned a lot about football, despite the fact that people thought I wasn't good enough. "When you work hard and follow your dreams, anything is possible." 8 8 8

Cristiano Ronaldo spotted again with a black toenail as he shows off ripped physique with his son - but there's a good reason behind the bizarre look
Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted with a black toenail again - but there's a reason why. Ronaldo took to social media to share a photo of himself standing with his eldest son Cristiano Jr, in which they proudly showed off their matching ripped physiques. The 40-year-old superstar sported a bare-bodied look alongside his son, who will turn 15 tomorrow, and posted the picture on Instagram to his 657million followers. Celebrating Father's Day in style, they appeared to have worked out together in a state-of-the-art gym. Indeed, Ronaldo captioned the post: 'Like father, like son'. Clad in red shorts, Ronaldo tensed for the camera, revealing he remains shredded even in the twilight of his career, while his son, wearing blue shorts, followed suit. However, the recent photo caught some eagle-eyed followers by surprise. That is because Ronaldo, who regularly shares pictures where he is seen enjoying his downtime between matches, was seen sporting a jet black toenail on his left foot. But there is a method behind the madness - with MMA fighters also following suit. According to a source via German publication Bild, athletes paint their nails or cover them with a protective layer to protect them from fungi and bacteria. The source said: 'Many top athletes do this to protect their nails from fungi and bacteria when they are stuck in sweaty shoes for hours. Even Mike Tyson.' This is not the first time that he has been pictured with his toe nails painted black. Ronaldo posted a picture of himself in a sauna in April 2023 as he recovered from his Al-Nassr exertions. Typically, the photo showed off his incredible physique as he sat with his hands grasped and looked thoughtful in the image shared on Instagram. In January 2023, MMA fighter Francis Ngannou posted a picture with Ronaldo. Again, the Portuguese forward's painted nails were visible for all to see. The look is another sign of a player who has always looked to go the extra mile.

Fashion fans race to high street store to nab £48 outfit for just £4 – and it's ‘giving Chanel vibes'
THEY'VE been criticised in the past for their rising prices. But Primark also does some epic bargain deals, as one lucky shopper found in their local store. 2 2 Chantelle took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share her incredible buy. "£48 outfit for £4. Thank you, Primark!" she captioned her pictures. The snaps showed a stunning blue striped cropped blazer, with beautiful knot-style silver buttons, alongside matching shorts. The blazer had been reduced from £32 to just £3, while the shorts were £1 instead of £18. As an added bonus, the shorts suit is made from 50% recycled polyester. "I saw this in the shop and wanted it... it was giving me Chanel vibes," one person commented on Chantelle's post. "You've got a real bargain there!" "Love it, really beautiful. It could easily pass as a designer outfit," another agreed. "Wish I could wear that stuff now, too old!" "Brilliant!" a third raved. I tried Primark's designer 'Farm Rio range' on a size 16 body - I loved their colourful coords for summer "Nice bargain. Primark is getting expensive now," someone else commented. "Primark?? What!!" another marvelled. However, others were more interested in the original price of the Primark two-piece. "Primark is giving audacity vibes lately," one gasped. "Primark has gotten quite expensive now but still same cheap quality," another said. "I prefer New Look or River Island for the extra £ and last a lot longer." a third added. Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough. "Wouldn't pay full price - since when did Primark charge like that?" someone else questioned. "Great bargain, I'm finding H&M prices at least for tops, shorts, trousers are better than Primark at full price - and quality is a bit better too," another said. "Just me thinking Primark is expensive now?" someone else asked. "Who pays £48 for a two-piece from Primark. Usually £48 could get you a entire (slight exaggeration) nearly, wardrobe," another groaned. "Who even pays that kind of prices in Primark now?" someone else raged. While Primark is known for their fashion offerings, the home department is fast eclipsing the style section in terms of popularity. And it was revealed this week that the first-ever dedicated Primark Home store is to open in Manchester at the Trafford Palazzo. Primark have said the 11,900 sq ft, two floor shop will bring together "the best of Primark's interiors offering under one roof." It will host an expanded range of homeware and lifestyle essentials for Manchester shoppers to browse and buy.
