Aldi's Dyson fan dupe is back in stores this weekend and it's £200 cheaper

The Sun14 hours ago

BUDGET superstore Aldi has thrilled and chilled customers by bringing back their very own Dyson fan dupe.
The Ambiano Bladeless Fan has made a welcome comeback just in time for the (hopefully here to stay) warmer weather - and it's available now.
The penny-pinching household dupe promises to keep your home cool during the summer months and boasts impressive features.
The German supermarket has re-released the bladeless fan to help you keep cool - but it won't be there for long.
The modern design bladeless fan has three speed settings, high, medium, low, plus three modes: normal, nature and sleep.
You can customise your sleep with the various modes and tailor it to your own temperature needs during the day - and most importantly, for a good night's sleep at bedtime.
There's a handy timer (from 1 – 12 hours), a seven colour LED lighting ring, fixed and oscillation function, swivel control and a remote control.
Part of Aldi's Specialbuys, the chic Design Fan comes in at £39.99 making it much easier on the bank balance than rivals.
Plus, with its bladeless design, it's safe around little people or pets.
The sought-after accessory is also incredibly quiet and makes only 56 decibels of sound.
Ready to fly off the store's middle aisles once again, the affordable, sleek gadget comes in £200 cheaper than the Dyson original and £30 cheaper than Lidl 's own.
Fans commented: "I LOVE the fan!! It comes with a remote, three fan speeds, can have the air coming in, going out or both... AND a timer. Happy girl right here!"
Aldi is selling a cheap $4.49 item that will transform your garden into a colorful summer paradise
A second user confirmed: "Love ours!!!! Feels like AC throughout the night. It's amazing."
A third praised: "Absolutely love mine."
Aldi said: "Stay comfortable this summer with Aldi's sell-out Air Cooler (£39.99), that uses evaporative cooling technology for an affordable solution to chilling out – simply add water to the 5.5L tank to circulate cool air.
"Featuring three speed levels, a 0-12-hour timer, remote control, LED light display, four ice boxes and automatic air-swing, it's the ideal alternative to pricey air conditioning."
Also hitting the Specialbuys shelves this week are £3.99 garden must-haves and £4 Crocs dupes.
The popular discount chain has revealed 36 garden essential products - and crocs dupes to wear while you're gardening.
Prices start at just £1.99 and go up to £19.99, with several top-shelf items for a fraction of the cost you'd pay at big-name stores.
That includes Mini Pruning Shears, scanning at Aldi for just £3.99.
Shoppers can also snap up sleeker items like Solar Marrakesh Crook Lanterns for £12.99 and Solar Plastic Spotlights for £3.99.
To find your nearest Aldi, you can go to its website and use the Store Finder tool.
When's the best time to shop at Aldi?
WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.
For reduced items - when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi's 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found - if you're quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: "All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates."
That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.
Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store's times by using the supermarket's online shop finder tool.
For Specialbuys - Thursdays and Sundays
Specialbuys are Aldi's weekly collection of items that it doesn't normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store's opening time.
Remember: once they're gone, they're gone, so if there's something you really want, visit as early as possible

Government struggles to cut foreign aid spent on asylum hotels

The government is struggling to cut the amount of foreign aid it spends on hotel bills for asylum seekers in the UK, the BBC has figures released quietly by ministers in recent days show the Home Office plans to spend £2.2bn of overseas development assistance (ODA) this financial year - that is only marginally less than the £2.3bn it spent in 2024/ money is largely used to cover the accommodation costs of thousands of asylum seekers who have recently arrived in the Home Office said it was committed to ending asylum hotels and was speeding up asylum decisions to save taxpayers' money. The figures were published on the Home Office website with no accompanying notification to aid is supposed to be spent alleviating poverty by providing humanitarian and development assistance under international rules, governments can spend some of their foreign aid budgets at home to support asylum seekers during the first year after their to the most recent Home Office figures, there are about 32,000 asylum seekers in hotels in the promised in its manifesto to "end asylum hotels, saving the taxpayer billions of pounds". Contracts signed by the Conservative government in 2019 were expected to see £4.5bn of public cash paid to three companies to accommodate asylum seekers over a 10-year a report by spending watchdog the National Audit Office (NAO) in May said that number was expected to be £15.3bn. On June 3, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper told the Home Affairs Committee she was "concerned about the level of money" being spent on asylum seekers' accommodation and added: "We need to end asylum hotels altogether."The Home Office said it was trying to bear down on the numbers by reducing the time asylum seekers can appeal against decisions. It is also planning to introduce tighter financial eligibility checks to ensure only those without means are Whitehall officials and international charities have said the Home Office has no incentive to reduce ODA spending because the money does not come out of its scale of government aid spending on asylum hotels has meant huge cuts in UK support for humanitarian and development priorities across the cuts have been exacerbated by the government's reductions to the overall ODA budget. In February, Sir Keir Starmer said he would cut aid spending from 0.5% of gross national income to 0.3% by 2027 - a fall in absolute terms of about £14bn to some £ was the scale of aid spending on asylum hotels in recent years that the previous Conservative government gave the Foreign Office an extra £2bn to shore up its humanitarian commitments overseas. But Labour has refused to match that commitment. 'Poor value for money' Gideon Rabinowitz, director of policy at the Bond network of development organisations, said: "Cutting the UK aid budget while using it to prop up Home Office costs is a reckless repeat of decisions taken by the previous Conservative government. "Diverting £2.2bn of UK aid to cover asylum accommodation in the UK is unsustainable, poor value for money, and comes at the expense of vital development and humanitarian programmes tackling the root causes of poverty, conflict and displacement. "It is essential that we support refugees and asylum seekers in the UK, but the government should not be robbing Peter to pay Paul."Sarah Champion, chair of the International Development Committee, said the government was introducing "savage cuts" to its ODA spending, risking the UK's development priorities and international reputation, while "Home Office raids on the aid budget" had barely reduced."Aid is meant to help the poorest and most vulnerable across the world: to alleviate poverty, improve life chances and reduce the risk of conflict," she said. "Allowing the Home Office to spend it in the UK makes this task even harder.""The government must get a grip on spending aid in the UK," she said. "The Spending Review needs to finally draw a line under this perverse use of taxpayer money designed to keep everyone safe and prosperous in their own homes, not funding inappropriate, expensive accommodation here." Shadow home secretary Chris Philp said: "Labour promised in their manifesto to end the use of asylum hotels for illegal immigrants. But the truth is there are now thousands more illegal migrants being housed in hotels under Labour. "Now these documents reveal that Labour are using foreign aid to pay for asylum hotel accommodation – yet another promise broken."A Home Office spokesperson said: "We inherited an asylum system under exceptional pressure, and continue to take action, restoring order, and reduce costs. This will ultimately reduce the amount of Official Development Assistance spent to support asylum seekers and refugees in the UK."We are immediately speeding up decisions and increasing returns so that we can end the use of hotels and save the taxpayer £4bn by 2026."

Liverpool up their bid for Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz to £113m

Liverpool have increased their offer for Florian Wirtz to £113m in an attempt to seal a club record deal for the Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder. The Premier League champions had a £109m bid for the Germany international rejected last weekend but, following further talks between the two clubs, have submitted a new package that would guarantee Leverkusen £100m plus £13m in add-ons. The offer, however, still falls short of the German club's £126m valuation and Liverpool appear unwilling to meet their asking price. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion Negotiations will continue in an attempt to conclude what would be Liverpool's record transfer. Wirtz has made it clear he is keen to complete a move to Anfield and Liverpool are confident a deal will be struck for the coveted 22-year-old.
