Aldi has introduced some new garden furniture for kids to its ever-growing ‘Specialbuys’ section – and the items are going on sale this weekend.
As we’ve been treated to a few spells of dry weather, warm temperatures and sporadic sunshine here in Greater Manchester over the past couple of weeks, this obviously means we’ve been spending more time relaxing in our gardens.
And now that summer is officially here, the budget supermarket chain’s latest garden furniture additions have come just in time.
A post showcasing the new furniture pieces was shared on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page on Facebook today, quickly accumulating hundreds of interactions and comments.

It looks as though they’re going to be snapped up quick.
Aldi describes the new bargain items – which are set to be stocked online from this weekend, before hitting stores later on this month – in its latest Specialbuys Leaflet online as: “Kid-sized garden furniture that’s perfect for your little ones to take a break from playing”.

There’s two new pieces set to hit shelves – the Children’s Wooden Lounger with Parasol, and the Children’s Wooden Picnic Bench with Parasol.
The Children’s Wooden Lounger with Parasol is a wooden lounger with a handy UV-protected parasol in navy and white stripes, and in a similar fashion, the Children’s Wooden Picnic Bench with Parasol is a wooden picnic bench that also comes fitted with a UV-protected parasol in navy and white stripes.
At the Specialbuys price, both will set you back just £59.99 – and they come with a two-year warranty as well.

The Children’s Wooden Lounger with Parasol and the Children’s Wooden Picnic Bench with Parasol are set to be stocked on the Aldi website exclusively from this Sunday 4 July.
They’ll be available to buy in store from Sunday 11 July.
Aldi’s Specialbuys are known to be very popular with budget shoppers, so you’ll probably need to act fast if you’re keen to snap up this garden furniture.
You can find more information about the items via the Aldi website here.

Liam Gallagher says he’ll ‘gig in Lidl’ if Co-op Live still isn’t ready – and they sound pretty game for it
Danny Jones
Following the ongoing palaver with Co-op Live, Liam Gallagher has joked that he’d happily play his scheduled gigs in a Lidl if the arena still isn’t ready – at least we think he’s joking…
With Liam Gallagher having been named as one of the first acts booked to play Co-op Live last year, many are now wondering whether the venue will even by June, with the former Oasis frontman set to play four Definitely Maybe 30th-anniversary sets. That being said, he’s come up with a solution if not.
Vintage LG, we’ll give him that.
Obviously a bit of a tongue-in-cheek quip at the venue being sponsored by a supermarket and convenience store chain, it could have been any other competitor that the ever-witty youngest Gallagher brother picked but it somehow made it extra funny that he chose a budget brand like Lidl.
However, with the 51-year-old already having fun with stunts like voicing the tannoys on the Metrolink last year, for instance, we wouldn’t put it past him to take this joke a little further.
Better still, not that we’re getting carried away or anything but Lidl themselves seem pretty keen on the idea too; they even spent the time to build an entire setlist for the fictional show. Fair play.
Can you imagine? Liam Gallagher swapping the occasional tambourine shake for beeps from a barcode scanner as he moves back and forth on the conveyor belt. We know it’s absolute nonsense and we definitely shouldn’t be even remotely considering it… BUT it’s the stuff of dreams and strange things have happened.
A lot of stranger things have happened this week alone. As for the latest with Co-op Live, the Chairman and CEO of key-backers Oak View Group, Tim Leiweke, issued a full statement sharing his “sincere apologies”and insisting that they understand “there is work to be done to rebuild your trust in us.”
With the likes of Olivia Rodrigo, Peter Kay, The Black Keys and more having their gigs pulled by the venue due to numerous issues, including an air conditioning unit falling from the ceiling, fans are understandably fearful that other upcoming events could face delays or general misfortune.
Much like the venue itself, we imagine we’ll be playing catch-up on this whole saga for the foreseeable, but here’s a recap of the story so far:

Gavin and Stacey will return with a 2024 Christmas special for its final episode
Danny Jones
After some pretty big rumblings earlier this year, it’s finally been confirmed that Gavin and Stacey will be returning for a Christmas special this year and what will be its last-ever episode.
The beloved British comedy last aired back in 2019 with their previous Christmas special and fans of the show have been crying out for more ever since.
Well, it turns out they’ll be getting just one more go around the block as co-creators James Corden and Ruth Jones revealed that they have now finished writing their third and final Xmas special which will tie a festive bow on the trio of series which started all the way back in 2007.
Sharing a picture of the script on social media, the pair wrote: “Some news… It’s official!!! We have finished writing the last ever episode of Gavin and Stacey. See you on Christmas Day, BBC One. Love Ruth and James”.
However, what was actually going on was a bit of a red herring as she carefully chose to talk down any notions of another series but didn’t categorically dismiss the potential Christmas special.
In fact, she actually went on to add: “All I can say is, if there was something to say on that front, James [Corden] and I would happily announce it, we would.”
And that’s exactly what they’ve done. Well played, Nessa.
As for details surrounding the final chapter in the Gavin and Stacey story, we have very few details at this stage but fans of the iconic show will already be wondering how they might pick up from where certain threads left off.
Production companies Baby Cow, Corden’s Fulwell 73 and Jones’ Tidy Productions are all behind the special and, given the momentous occasion, it will likely have a primetime slot on the TV guide when it finally rolls around this holiday season.
So get your remotes, baubles and bhunas at the ready because Gavin and Stacey is coming back for one last time and it’s sure to be a TV event that people all across the UK will remember for years to come.
