Aldi shoppers rush to buy 18p item that will make Christmas A LOT cheaper

Supermarket giant Aldi has been praised by shoppers for an 18p item that will make the Christmas period much cheaper. Now October is here, the retailer has started to put its festive offerings on shelves, and shoppers certainly aren't disappointed.

With less than 90 days until Christmas, the festive season is under way in Aldi as a range of mince pies hit shelves this week - from just 18p per pie. Back by popular demand are Aldi’s Specially Selected Almond/Sloe Gin Mince Tarts (£2.99, 6 pack).

For those who prefer a more traditional treat there are Aldi’s Specially Selected Mince Pies (£1.75, 6 pack). The all-butter pastries are filled with mincemeat infused with brandy, cognac and cider, with a sugar dusting, and sit alongside the Holly Lane Deep Filled Mince Pies, at just £1.09. With six mince pies per pack, it works out at just 18p per pie.
