Just called in Aldi to buy some wine (as you do) and noticed they are expecting a load of cheap rambling gear in on the 5th April.
Doesn't seem to be on their website yet but am just browsing through their glossy brochure ;) and they are advertising waterproofs, fleeces, foot creams, socks, walking poles, a pedometer, various holders and pouches, a compass, hats and even a handheld GPS system.
Of particular interest are some quite nice looking walking boots at £17.99 which I think might invest in.
Excellent news! I loves a bargain, I do...
Does the wine come in those plastic pouches that proper ramblers have? That'd be worth investing in ;)
