Aldi Black Friday shopper spots disappointing 1p ‘discount’ in supermarket – The Sun

ALDI has left one shopper baffled after they spotted a Black Friday deal on a box of biscuits that's price has been reduced by… 1p.

Black Friday is supposed to be a day of incredible deals and discounts aimed at saving customers cash for Christmas.

Shoppers have been snapping up bargains from a range of different retailers, including £100 off a Lay Z Spa and up to 20 per cent off at Next.

But one of the worst deals on offer was found on a McVities Victoria Biscuit Selection box at the discounter, which costs £3.99 down from £4.

The shopper sarcastically tweeted "Black Friday is here, bargain of the day".

The 600g pack of snacks aren't available to buy elsewhere, but 550g boxes typically cost £4 from stores like Iceland or Sainsbury's.

It's not the first time that these measly discounts have been spotted in Aldi.

Earlier this month, we reported how the discounter had knocked just 1p off the price of Celebration tubs, Swizzles tubs, After Eight mints and Terry's Chocolate Oranges.

But much like before, Aldi told The Sun that it was a labelling mistake. A spokesperson added: "We apologise for any confusion caused."
