The news that a new 'cold plunge' of -3°C will be hitting the UK this week is a downer to say the least. Don't despair - for Aldi's magical Specialbuys aisle has a new addition that is sure to brighten your mood. Finally, after much-anticipation, Aldi has released an electric blanket, and the price is bananas.
Aldi's electric blanket is how much?!
Ah, the Specialbuys aisle at Aldi. You know the one. Right in the middle aisle, where you can shop a wheelbarrow alongside a pop-up trampoline (because you might just need a pop-up trampoline one day).
