    Not quite the same stock as last time, i picked up a chain cleaner.

    Aldi have a sale starting 2nd May, maybe they'll have the stands, i seems to remember them having them in the past.

    I've just been to my local lidl and it was a wasted journey, bought a pair of fingerless gloves just so I didn't come away empty handed

    Wouldn't mind picking up one of the waterproof pack-a-macs Aldi are showing in their upcoming 2nd of May event.

    Out of interest what time is it worth getting to their stores - do they have everything available for opening on the day of the event ? Don't want a wasted trip if the stuff arrives later in the day.

    pack-a-macs - these are decent for the money, even better when they sell them off, think i picked mine up for £1.99/£2.99 last time they had them.

    And yes, they have everything in when they open.

    got myself a chain cleaner, saves me getting the turps out and cleaning it that way

    The chain cleaners really good - but I'd recommend not using the lube - it does its job but its not the best

    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.
