‘Taking it too far' fume shoppers as they hit out at ‘Mrs Hinch mums' over Aldi toys – but not everyone agrees
Some people have defended the toys GREY MATTER 'Taking it too far' fume shoppers as they hit out at 'Mrs Hinch mums' over Aldi toys – but not everyone agrees Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT was the homeware trend that everyone seemed to fall in love with. Velvet sofas, 'Live laugh love' signs and grey EVERYWHERE - with many people citing cleaning guru Mrs Hinch as their home decor inspiration. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 An Aldi middle aisle buy has left shoppers divided Credit: Alamy 2 People have claimed the grey toys are 'utterly depressing' But shoppers have blasted the trend for going "too far" after spotting "super depressing" grey toys in Aldi. The 100-pack of ball pool balls is currently priced at £4.99 in the bargain supermarket, and is available in grey or pink. After seeing the middle aisle buy in her local store, one woman fumed: "Unless babies/toddlers are colour blind, I'm not sure why you'd make toys colourless? "Taking the grey aesthetic too far. Do toys clash with your living room scheme? Plain weird." Her post on the BARGAIN LOVERS - Poundland, Home Bargains, B&M, Primark, The Range & More Facebook group, which boasts 841,000 members, quickly racked up a flurry of comments. Many people appeared disappointed by the "utterly depressing" toys due to their lack of colour and hit out at parents for prioritising their interior aesthetic over colourful buys for the kids. One said: "My living room is black, white and grey, but all my girls toys are ALWAYS going to be colourful. It's not fair to deprive a baby of colours for your own aesthetic." "You buy toys for kids. I don't know many kids who'd prefer these boring balls", chimed in a second. A third fumed: "Very bland, like a lot of beige nurseries." A fourth claimed: "So many triggered beige baby mums. By the time they're old enough to be using a ball put properly they can see colour just fine, it's super depressing." Parents race to Lidl for middle aisle bargains including 2 in 1 sandpit for £29 "Yep, made totally to match decor not for child enrichment", added a fifth. Meanwhile a sixth echoed: "Agreed. Couldn't live in a grey and silver house. Find it utterly depressing." Other social media users, however, have defended the grey toys and insisted their colour doesn't ruin the fun. "Really not sure why it matters, kids will still play in amongst them no matter the colour", insisted one. A second wrote: "It's really not that deep, and a plastic ball is a plastic ball." A third suggested: "Too much colour can be overwhelming and overstimulating. Probably the same reason so many people choose the neutral tones to decorate also." Someone else admitted: "I'm not going to lie. I'm the parent that has bought this in the past because it goes with my living room. Not really ashamed of it either." "Maybe just me, but I'm sorry if it don't match my living room I ain't buying it", agreed a fifth. And a sixth echoed: "I got grey to match my house. Looked gorgeous in our home and it mattered to me that it looked nice because that's who I am. Let people do what they like without judgement maybe?"

The best Aldi beers to buy, tried and tested
Aldi was named Drinks Retailer of the Year for the seventh year on the trot at the Retail Industry Awards in 2024, which can partly be attributed to its wines – for reasonable prices it delivers some excellent summer sips – but it also has a growing reputation for beer. You will find a good mix of well-known labels (Corona, San Miguel and Stella Artois, for example) along the aisles, nestled between own-brand replicas (an approach echoed at Lidl) that deliver the same level of quality but at a considerably lower price – as I discovered in a tasting of the supermarket's most commonly available brews. In fact, I found almost all of the dupes to be equal to, if not better than, their big-name equivalents. The only exceptions were the Rossini Lager (not a patch on Peroni) and the Harper's Brew Co IPA, which, while being a drinkable beer in its own right, can't hold a candle to St Austell's Proper Job, a true modern classic. You will find my tasting notes for both bottles below. While Aldi offers more lagers than anything else, as you'd expect, it does have an excellent set of options for ale drinkers – just surpassing Lidl's range, in my opinion. Traditional brews such as Abbot Ale and Shepherd Neame's Bishops Finger sit alongside high-quality craft cans including the irrepressible William Bros Brewing Co's Magma Hazy. I tested all of the following beers blind, so neither my own bias nor even the snazziest of packaging was able to influence my reviews. Here I share my recommendations for the best beers to buy at Aldi – as well as flagging those which aren't worth a pour.
