‘How dairy he take them all?’ folk say as ‘greedy’ man clears entire shelf of discounted cheese
A MAN has been slammed online after clearing the shelf of discountedcheese.
Most of us will do anything to grab a bargain and Mark King was clearly no different when he saw his favourite food, cheese, on sale in Aldi.
Shopping with his wife Tracey, Mark who is known as ‘The Cheese King’ was told off by his wife after picking up piles of the cheese which were on sale for just £1.39 a block.
Seeing him put them in the basket, mum-of-four Tracey said: “Mark, you don’t need that many. What are you doing?”
She went on to ask Mark exactly how many he planned to eat for the weekend, adding: “Leave a few of them.
“That’s greedy, Mark.”
But when Tracey saw the price of the cheese her attitude changed, ‘I mean they’re cheap for £1.39,” she said.
She asked mark to leave some behind and he revealed he had left one on the shelf.
In the end, Mark walked away with his massive haul of cheese a happy man as Tracey tried to convince him to make it last a whole week.
But Mark had no plans to ration his cheese addiction.
Mark then looked at all the other cheeses on offer, as Tracey called him a ‘Crazy cheesy, cheese king.’
Mark placed all of the cheese into the basket as Tracey admitted it was the only thing he stopped for when shopping.
The clip went viral on her TikTok account @traceywinter1 with over 176k views and 1,500 likes.
People were quick to take to the comments to share their thoughts, while many were pleased for Mark some agreed that he should have left some of the sale items on the shelf to share with other people.
One person joked: “How dairy take them all.”
Another commented: “No hate but please think of other people that might want to buy.”
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.
You don’t have to head into stores to bag a Specialbuy, though.
They also go on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can pre-order them up to a week in advance.
As long as you spend at least £25, you’ll get the items delivered for free.
Remember: once they’re gone, they’re gone, so if there’s something you really want, visit as early as possible
“You need a second mortgage just for his cheese habit,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “GREED.”
“Why can’t you think of other people that is just being greedy,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “He’s paying for it so what’s the problem?”
