Default Aldi tools - Thursday 17th October

These are awesome - mainly because they're good quality for low cost, but also because they have the security torx bits in 'm too.

Thanks for posting this!

I have a day off Thursday and I normally miss the Aldi deals when they come round.

When ever I go there is cheap flower & veg seeds or similar, dad loves it...

I've had mine for 5 yrs without issue. They won't shift uber tight stuff, but when you use the piece on the handle and use the extended bit for leverage, they undo most difficult bolts.

Can be used to do the TPS adjustment too (wish I'd known before I shelled out on a set of Halfords security torx bits )

Must be something to do with their usual weekday "between jobs" clientele

Aldi did have their own branded credit card and may still do and was the only one they accepted. Otherwise it has always been as you say debit cards. From memory Lidl at one time didn't even take debit cards but these days they also offer cash back at the till when you use your debit card. Aldi is doing very well in the States and I understand that Lidl is considering opening up there as well.
