Aldi shopper's 'shameful' trick to buy Prime Hydration slammed as adults push children to get drink

A 'shameful' Aldi shopper has been slammed for their attempt to stockpile the widely popular Prime Hydration drink which has seen desperate adults pushing over children at shops. Adults pushed and shoved kids as young as seven as they rushed to grab a bottle of the drink, created by Youtube stars Logan Paul and KSI, with chaos unfolding at several stores across the UK.

The pair have used their enormous social media clout to create huge demand for the beverage, which contains coconut water, sweeteners and vitamins. In Nottinghamshire, the launch of the drink at Aldi stores seemed relatively calm despite a 'carnage' queue but elsewhere in the country has seen wilder scenes.

Such is the craze around the drink that one shopper took to a Facebook group to explain how an Aldi customer had attempted to open several Prime bottles in the hope he'd be able to buy them all - avoiding the one per person limit. The shopper thought his 'trick' would mean staff would allow him to buy all of the opened bottles, but instead they banned him from buying any at all from the London store, as reported by Manchester Evening News.
