There’s currently a massive summer sale at Aldi, and there’s up to 50% off on garden essentials like BBQs, pizza ovens, fire pits, and so much more.
With temperatures having been soaring right across Greater Manchester over the past couple of days, as the UK experienced the second heatwave of the summer, budget supermarket retailer Aldi has decided to slash the prices of some of its most popular Specialbuy items both in store and online – and there’s dozens of items on offer across its outdoor ranges.
Some of the must-have garden accessories with reduced prices include several Gardenline Fire Pits, like the Square Fire Pit, the Mesh Wild Fire Pit, Tripod Fire Pit, Steel Fire Pit, and the stand-out Geometric Fire Pit – which doubles as a campfire and a BBQ, and was originally £69.99, but is now better than half price at just £29.99 in the sale.

After becoming the first UK supermarket to ban the sale of disposable barbecues, Aldi has also slashed the price of its battery-powered Gardenline Portable BBQ, which has a charcoal grill and an integrated fan, and is on sale for less than £30.
Gardenline pizza ovens let you create delicious food for friends and family in no time at all, and feature wheels and a handle for easy transportation across the garden, as well as coming with a pizza stone, gas regulator, and instructions manual.

Both pizza ovens have received rave-reviews in the past, and aren’t expected to stick around for long in the sale.
A handful of garden furniture items are also in the limited-time sale, and you can also get yourself a bargain on discounted trampolines, tents, and more to really make the most of the outdoors.
While it’s true that the weather forecast doesn’t have the brightest outlook anymore, with a thunderstorm warning now in place, this could still be your chance to grab a bargain for next summer – or in case there’s any other warm spells that surprise us before the year is out.

If you’re not looking to kit-out your garden though, not to worry, as reduced prices can also be found on other items such electricals, kitchen appliances, and even Lacura beauty products too, so there’s something for everyone to save a few pennies on.
For those looking to get their hands on a couple of bargains before the summer is out, you can find the opening times of your local Aldi branch on the Store Finder here.

Drinks prices revealed as Manchester Airport’s first-ever Wetherspoons pub opens inside T2
Emily Sergeant
It’s official… Manchester Airport’s first-ever JD Wetherspoon pub has officially opened its doors inside Terminal 2.
The 300-seater pub – which welcomed its first customers earlier this week – is named The Belle Vue after Manchester’s historic showground.
Throughout the pub, you’ll spot design features that nod to the city’s sporting heritage – including vintage event posters and memorabilia, a ‘locker wall’ hosting trophies and other sporting exhibits, and a cricket-themed design in the carpets and bar panels.
Creating around 150 jobs in the process, The Belle Vue is the final planned new eatery to open in the airport’s redeveloped Terminal 2, marking one of the final steps in the super-terminal’s decade-long, £1.5bn transformation.

According to the MEN, pints are priced from £6.20 for Carling and Coors lager, £6.45 for Budweiser, £6.60 for Guinness, and £6.70 for Poretti and 1664 Biere.
Prosecco is £9.20 for 175ml glass and £37.10 for the full bottle, while spirts and mixers are £6.80 for singles and £10.20 for doubles.
There’s also the classic Wetherspoons tea and coffee machines, where you can refill as many times as you like for just £3.60.
“It’s a proud moment to see the final new retail unit opening in our new-look Terminal 2,” commented Richard Jackson, who is the Retail Director at Manchester Airport.
“To be rounding off this 10-year programme by adding such an iconic name as Wetherspoon to the terminal is particularly special and we know that it will prove extremely popular with passengers. We think they’ll love the nods to Manchester’s heritage in the décor and design – and of course the name.”
The Belle Vue will be open from the first flight to the final flight each day, and food will be served from opening until 10pm.

Iconic Manc movie 24 Hour Party People is set to return to cinemas for its anniversary
Emily Sergeant
One of Manchester’s most iconic movies is set to return to the big screen next month.
Remastered in 4K and returning to UK cinemas to mark 24 years since its original release, Michael Winterbottom’s 2002 biographical comedy drama film, 24 Hour Party People, tells the story of Manchester‘s popular music community from 1976 to 1992 – specifically about Factory Records‘ founder Tony Wilson.
The film begins with the punk rock era of the late 1970s, before moving through the 1980s into the rave and DJ culture, and of course, the ‘Madchester‘ scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The narrative largely follows the career of Tony Wilson, played by Middleton-born actor Steve Coogan, while also covering the careers of the major Factory Records artists – especially Joy Division and New Order, as well as A Certain Ratio, The Durutti Column, and Happy Mondays.
If you haven’t seen 24 Hour Party People before, it’s a dramatisation based on a combination of real events, rumours, and urban legends, as the film is sure to make clear.
Coogan is joined by a cast by a mixture of big names and, at the time, rising stars like Paddy Considine, Shirley Henderson, Lennie James, John Simm, Ralf Little, Andy Serkis, Sean Harris, John Thomson, and even Peter Kay, alongside cameos from other figures connected to the Manchester music scene.
Before it returns to cinemas, the film will first open music and media festival/conference, Beyond The Music, at MediaCity in Salford on 6 October.
The screening at the festival will also be followed by a Q&A with Coogan, Winterbottom, and producer Andrew Eaton.
24 Hour Party People will then be re-released in UK cinemas from 9 October, and you can check your local cinema for screening times and book tickets online now.
