Aldi's launch follows recent garden sales from other major retailers. B&M has offered discounted garden chairs, Argos recently cut prices on outdoor essentials, and Wilko slashed prices on patio and bistro sets.
Last summer, Dobbies ran a major summer sale with up to 50 per cent off garden furniture and plants, and Dunelm cleared out seasonal stock with discounts up to 75%.
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

King's Birthday trading hours: When Dan Murphy's, Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, Kmart and Bunnings will be open
The King's Birthday is fast approaching with most states and territories in Australia due to celebrate the public holiday with a long weekend. Queensland will celebrate the holiday on October 6 while in Western Australia, the King's Birthday will be observed on September 29. King Charles was actually born on November 14. The sovereign's birthday date is based on the British military parade Trooping the Colour which dates back to King Charles II from 1660 to 1685. 'In 1748 it was decided that this parade would be used to mark the official birthday of the sovereign,' the British army's website states. 'It became an annual event after George III became king in 1760.' State and territory governments in Australia can decide when to mark the public holiday and most choose a date that closely aligns with the British celebrations. To help you plan ahead and avoid any last-minute surprises, Daily Mail Australia has put together a handy guide to when and if your local shops will be open on Monday. Most Coles supermarkets will be open on Monday between 9am and 5:30pm. Check their website for specific store opening hours. Woolworths Woolworths is open, however some individual stores' opening and closing times may vary. Check their website for specific store trading hours. ALDI An ALDI spokesperson said trading hours would vary across the long weekend and customers were told to visit the Aldi store locator for individual trading hours. Kmart Kmart is open with some small changes to trading hours based on individual shops. Visit the store locator on their website for more details. Bunnings Bunnings will be open, but some reduced trading hours will apply. The hours are generally the same as the store's weekend trading times. Check their website for specific store hours.

Tesco to shed light on sales as ‘awful April' bill hikes squeeze budgets
Tesco shareholders will be watching closely for signs that it is managing to fend off competition as the supermarket price war heats up and 'awful April' bill hikes eat into household income. The UK's biggest supermarket chain will unveil its financial results for the first three months of its financial year on Thursday. Tesco recently signalled that a price war was mounting within the sector, saying that it expects to make as much as £400 million less in profit in the year ahead as a result of what it called 'a very competitive market'. Asda has promised its biggest price cuts in 25 years under returning boss Allan Leighton, in a bid to revive the languishing chain. The rapid growth of discounters Aldi and Lidl in the UK has also driven more competition as supermarkets move to match some of their prices to low-cost alternatives. Tesco is expecting to generate a group adjusted operating profit of between £2.7 billion and £3 billion for the year to February 2026, down from the £3.1 billion made over the latest year. A group of analysts for AJ Bell said that, despite fears of a supermarket price war, Tesco's share price was close to a 12-year high. 'Asda's reboot under new chair Allan Leighton prompted such concerns but, for now, the competition seems relatively limited in scope, with a focus on Clubcard and loyalty scheme customers and loss-leaders that drive footfall,' they said. 'Mr Leighton claims he can see the green shoots of recovery at Asda, but the latest Kantar survey of market share in the UK grocery market suggests that Tesco, Aldi and Lidl continue to have both Asda and Morrisons for breakfast.' Asda is the UK's third-largest UK supermarket, behind Sainsbury's, but remains close to being overtaken by Aldi which has seen its share of the market grow steadily. Meanwhile, investors will be looking for an update from Tesco on how consumers are faring following the onset of higher bills during what has been dubbed as 'awful April'. Household bills including for electricity, water, phone deals, and council tax rose for many from the beginning of the month. Financial markets analyst Michael Hewson said trading updates from the UK's biggest retailers can give a strong indication of consumer trends and any signs of weakness in the UK economy. He said Tesco's Booker division – the food wholesaler – was the 'main drag' on its latest annual sales figures, 'largely due to weakness in its tobacco business, as well as the fast-food market serviced by its Best Food logistics brand'. 'This business supplies the likes of Burger King, Pret a Manger, Pizza Express, Zizzi, Nando's and Pizza Hut, and saw a like-for-like sales decline of 5.1% to £1.44 billion,' he said.

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