Aldi camping stuff

Cheers, Corners. I’ve just had a look at their website and they’ve got windbreaks, awning furniture and goodness knows what.

We've used their blue and organic green toilet fluids and they’re fine. Don't know if they’ve got them at present.

 

We always have a browse of Aldi’s camping specials. Have bought loo fluids, cleaning products, those natty camp carpet squares, we did have a step, but it wasn’t particularly robust. The folding bucket and dog bowl are great though. We got a couple of wet suits as well to add to our touring gear. Some stuff is fantastic value, some cheap as chips but good value if it only lasts a season.

yes, the pegs we got were exactly the same, even down to the shape of plastic part at the top) and they even weight the same individually (yes I know very sad to check but I have a electric lab scale the school was throwing out in the garage and I was curious) as those in a box of 20 we bought at a dealer in Scotland a few years when we needed some,  they were over £18 I seem to recall.

One of our better buys has been a folding shoe box that fits nicely into the outside locker and holds our shower shoes, waterproof "garden type" shoes and crocs. Good quality. Saw it on sale again this week in Aldi.

last year I bought an Aldi 12v tv/dvd great value, good picture and works well on 12v They did 19 and 22" in 12v.

I bought one of their Adventure Ridge Caravan covers last year, I was very pleased with it for £79.99 but at 11 month old the sun light had caused some parts of it to rot.  I e mailed Adli customer services and heard nothing from them, so I rang the warranty number on the instructions (In Germany) they couldn't have been more helpful and refunded me the full amount the next day into my Paypal account.

 

 

That sounds like a great idea as I always forget about the outside locker so I will look out for one when  I visit next!

About two months back I bought two packs of the Aldi rock pegs with the screw thread and a key to allow them to be driven in with a electric driver. Attempted to use them this week at Chatsworth and they were useless. None would go deeper than an inch (12mm). Using a hammer just bent them. I went to the site shop and bought some plain steel steel pegs (75p each) and knocked them in easily with a lump hammer. None of those bent. I certainly won't be carrying the Aldi pegs again. 

I have been using same/similar pegs - but driving them in and out with an impact wrench (great for corner steadys and wheel nuts).  So far no bending, and most recent use was at Dunbar C&CC site which is ontop of limestone quarry spoil heap. Others using hammers were struggling.
