Meaks   11 #1 Posted March 29, 2007 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.

feargal   21 #2 Posted March 29, 2007 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
