IF you’re a parent, or know someone who is, you’ve come to the right place.
Just when we thought we couldn’t love Aldi any more than we already do for the cheap food, brilliant beauty buys and jaw-dropping dupes, now the much-loved chain has left shoppers impressed with their new-in Middle Aisle buys.
The chain took to social media to show off their new Specialbuys - and if you’ve got a little one or are expecting, there’s plenty you’ll want to nab.
Posting on Instagram, under the username @aldispecialbuysuk, the chain shared their clip and wrote: ‘Kit out your kids with this week’s middle aisle finds!
‘Whether it’s school run essentials or cleaning up products, our middle aisle has all the bits you need to make life easier for both you and your little ones.’
In the short video, we saw the brilliant new-in buys that are hitting shelves this week, as the chain penned: “Some of the products landing on the Aisle of Aldi this week!”

First of all, there’s adorable cream storage baskets, which are perfect for a little darling’s nursery.
They are just £7.99 for a pack of two and will be great for keeping your child’s toys and books neatly sorted.
There’s also puzzle lunch box containers, which are only £3.49 and come with three pots.
Whether your child likes to take fruit, crisps or sweets (or all of the above) in their packed lunch, these containers are not only useful, but will provide a bit of fun too.
For those parents currently potty training, Aldi are now selling a My Carry Potty, which has been hailed as ‘The UK’s Favourite Potty’.

The potties are priced online at £28.99, but in Aldi, you can nab one for just £19.99, saving yourself £9.
As well as this, Aldi’s new laundry range is hitting shelves this week.
There’s the Mamia non-bio laundry capsules, which are £5.49 for a pack, and the Mamia non-bio fabric conditioner for only £1.59.
Both buys are soft and gentle on your little one’s skin and work to protect and brighten their clothes.
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
But that’s not all for your kids - as Aldi are also now selling a range of Baby Cubs bath toys, some of which are suitable from birth, whilst others are for 12 months plus, for just £3.99 each.
There’s soft building blocks, a stack castle tower and a stacking ring sorter - all of which are not only colourful, but are perfect for young hands.
It’s clear that social media users were left impressed at the new-in buys, as the post has quickly racked up 1,111 likes in just 17 hours.
SHOPPERS RAVE
Social media users took to the comments to share their thoughts on the bargains, whilst others tagged their friends to alert them to the new items.
One person said: “Those storage baskets are so cute.”

Another tagged her friends and advised: “Snap up the potty, that is honestly the best thing I bought.”
A third commented the ok hand sign emoji and penned: “The fabric softener and pods.”
