For example, if you want a more affordable version of a FitBit then Aldi can offer the Xplora Fitness Watch.

It features a bluetooth connected step tracker, heart rate monitor, smartphone alerts and choice of watch faces to suit your style.

Additionally, it is compatible with both iOS and Android devices and can be purchased at the Aldi website for £27.99.

If you're thinking ahead to the summer and want to get a barbecue in then Aldi can help with the Gardenline Kamado Ceramic Egg BBQ.

It is on the more expensive side of Aldi specialbuys at £399, but it has a number of useful features such as a powder coated steel hinge, chimney top, fire grate bring, stainless steel hinge springs and an ash door bring.

Plus, with two cooking grills you'll be able to host a decent number of people without it becoming too overwhelming.

Finally, for those who are enthusiastic about stargazing then the National Geographic 76/700 Telescope is a relatively inexpensive option to look up into the night sky.

On its Aldi website page it says it has enough maynifying power to see details of the Moon and some planets.

At £79.99 it could be the perfect gift to give to a budding astrologer who is just getting interested in the subject.

Lidl's Middle Aisle

Lidl's Middle Aisle items this week are focused on DIY tools and health gadgets, such as with the Parkside 65 Piece Socket Set for £34.99.
