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.
Any savvy shopper will be familiar with the middle aisle of Lidl.
From pet toys to kitchen must-haves, it’s filled to the brim with different irresistible bargain buys that are on offer each week.
We shared how another bargain hunter has posted a selection of the must-have offers that’ve recently caught her eye – and they’re “perfect for summer.”
In a clip shared to TikTok (@louisehenryuk), Louise begins by raving about the the ‘Rocktrail electric cool box,’ which retails at £49.99.
Ideal for camping or travel, it features a carry handle and outer shell made from recycled plastic.
And hands up if you’ve ever complained about not having enough space to store stuff outdoors…well, you’re not alone.
But that could soon be a problem of the past thanks to the £39.99 garden storage box with rattan effect, which is currently on sale in Lidl‘s middle aisle.
Sturdy and durable, it’s perfect for housing everything from garden tools and watering equipment to outdoor games.
Plus, it comes with wheels and carry handles for easy transportation.
Next up, Louise points out that gardening fans can also snap up “cute little watering cans” which hold 2l of water, come in a selection of colours – including sage, cream and blue – and cost just £4.99.
Alternatively, if you’re looking to give your outdoor haven a quick and easy makeover in time for the warmer weather, then look no further than the ‘Parkside raised planter.'”
Costing just £19.99, it’ll not only add an instant pop of colour into your garden but is also a “comfortable height for planting and harvesting.”
Next up, Louise brands the ‘flexi garden hose,’ which costs £24.99, a “life changer.”
With a high quality braided hose, it extends from 10m to 30m with water pressure, making your morning and evening watering routine a whole lot simpler.
