Customers are in a frenzy as Aldi announces the launch of their new party meal kits. They’re perfect for a quick after-school meal and a night out (or a tasty treat at the weekend).
Oakhurst’s meal kits are suitable for two people and contain 12 chicken nuggets, two tomato ketchup dips, two portions of fries and two orange cool boxes.
Post a message on the official @fat Instagram page, the beloved chain shared a click of the new kits and wrote: “Back to school means back to busy days!
“Take the stress out of meal planning with these NEW Oakhurst meal kits.
“Perfect for treating your kids to a quick, tasty meal after a long day of learning.
“Grab these Party Meal Kit boxes from our freezer now.”
Many bargain hunters were excited about the new meal kits. Not only do they look delicious, but they also save parents time by not having to drive to McDonald’s or wait in long lines at the drive-thru.
An Aldi customer was so excited about the handy kits that she posted them on social media to warn others, leaving many jaws dropped.
Post message on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Groupa closed Facebook group with 2.5 million members, Amy Murray shared a photo of her find and wrote: “I thought these new meal kits from Aldi were a brilliant idea!
“One box should be enough for two children, so [it] saves you the trouble of going to McDonald’s!”
Amy then confirmed that she had seen the £3.99 packs in an Aldi store in Dalgety Bay and had also seen them in Aldi in Halbeath Road in Dunfermline.
When you prepare the chicken nuggets on Electric 200°C/Convection 180°C/Gas Mark 6, they will be ready to eat in 18 to 20 minutes. The chips will be ready after 15 minutes.
Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts?
IF you have ever shopped at Aldi or Lidl, you have probably experienced the super-fast checkout staff.
Aldi’s reputation as a fast supermarket is not without reason. The supermarket chain even claims that its checkouts are 40 percent faster than those of competitors.
It’s all part of Aldi’s plan to be as efficient as possible, which, the budget retailer claims, helps keep costs down for customers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging allow employees to scan items as quickly as possible. Most products have multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
Shelf-ready packaging is also used, keeping replenishment costs low.
These tasty packages are also suitable for preparation in the air fryer.
Customers were very happy with the low cost kits and many responded en masse to the comments to express this.
Someone said, “I gotta have some of those.”
Another added: “Awesome, definitely on my shopping list!”
A third commented: “Ooo, they look good.”
While someone else wrote: “I did three sets of five of them last night and they all loved it.”
