Aldi shoppers praise £3 product that they say gives them 'much better sleep'

Aldi shoppers have praised a sleep product sold by the bargain retailer, though not everyone is convinced.

The budget giant sells Clear Mind, Deep Sleep, and Calm Sleep fragranced diffusers for £2.99.

The diffusers, which come in clear glass bottles, are intended to help shoppers get a "good night's sleep".

Aldi's product description for the diffusers reads: "Drift off into dreamland with these Sleep Better Diffusers by Scentcerity. Fill the air with a relaxing scent before you hit the hay.

"These diffusers will help you to create a calming and tranquil atmosphere as you close your eyes."

One curious customer who picked the products up from their local Aldi was quick to share the news on Facebook.

Posting in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, they wrote: "I don’t sleep well, these look great value from Aldi, will certainly be trying them."

Since being shared, the post has received almost 300 likes and 430 comments from Aldi fans giving their thoughts.

One happy customer revealed: "I bought deep sleep and its amazing, great smell, not too strong and honestly I sleep much better".

"I have these and they are fantastic," a second agreed.

A third echoed: "The calm sleep is fantastic".

"Oh I need them, all of them," a fourth commented.

"Need the sleep ones," said a fifth.

A sixth posted: "Oh I'm going to look for that".

A seventh shared: "I have the calm sleep one. It smells great. I also listen to a track called stardust - relaxing fantasy music on you tube. It really helps me relax."

Not everyone was quite so keen on the diffusers, however, with one Facebook user commenting: "I have the blue on in our bedroom and the pink/purple one in the spare room.

"Gentle fragrance which is very pleasant and not overpowering. I'm terrible at sleeping, can't say they have helped, but the rooms certainly smell lovely."

"Does not work and can’t smell it," a second stated.

A third went even further, writing: "They certainly don't work for me, just a waste of my money".

Other users suggested alternative sleep products that could be picked up from high street retailers.

One said: "Get mine from Poundland for £2 sleep like the dead most nights"

"Home bargains do a lavender pillow spray that works for me 89p," a second revealed.
