Aldi and Amazon launch huge sales on garden furniture - including saving on viral 'egg chair'

As Spring awaits Aldi has become the second major retailer to launch discounts on its popular outdoor furniture, offering 40% off to all online shoppers.

Those who use the code 'OUTDOOR 40' at checkout will get a lot of money taken off the total price, even hundreds if applied to specific products. The discounts include £199 off this hot tub, £144 off this rattan lounge set and a full £239 off this pizza oven, to name just a few.

The budget retailer recently brought back its sell-out egg chair, which caused a shopping frenzy this time last year as one of the 'go-to' outdoor summer products. Its popularity was down to its affordable £100 range price tag and although not in Aldi's current sale another major retail giant has an offer on a very similar product.

This Rattan Swing Chair (with a very similar look) is £10 cheaper than the one available to buy at Aldi, and it's all down to Amazon's current spring sale which has reduced it to £189.99. Amazon has also reduced this VonHaus Garden Egg Chair by £47.41.

It comes as day three of Amazon's first-ever Spring Sale gets underway, where hundreds of products are discounted across its site. Shoppers have until 11:59 tonight (Wednesday, March 29) to get items for a lot less. Aldi's sale, however, is on until 11:59 on April 11 so shoppers will have longer to get their deals, but at what price?

With two major retailers launching discounts, we've compared some prices between the two, to help shoppers know if an item is a good deal or if a better price can be found cheaper elsewhere.

One benefit for shoppers looking at the Amazon sale is the wide range of discounts, as not only outdoor but homewares, beauty, fashion and tech items are reduced. At the moment Aldi's sale is only on garden furniture.

Shoppers in Amazon's spring sale would have spotted a huge focus on BBQs and outdoor grills, one of the biggest discounts is on this Char-Broil Barbeque Grill, now reduced by £57 to £168.99. Aldi's current discount code makes their stocked BBQ a lot cheaper, £47 cheaper to be precise.

The Gardenline Kamado BBQ can be bought at Aldi for just £71, so for any shoppers swept up by excitement surrounding Amazon's sale it may be better to check Aldi first.

That being said not everything is cheaper, as Amazon's sale includes discounts of up to 60% on selected items, compared to Aldi's 40%.

In the sale, this trampoline on Aldi would cost £180.99, a pretty big price drop from its original £299.99 tag. Over at Amazon a very similar product can be found in the Spring Sale for £169.
