Everything new coming to Aldi's middle aisle on Thursday, July 24

Known for its infamous middle aisle with ever-changing products, Thursday marks the latest waves of Specialbuys arriving in Aldi stores for shoppers. Offering a range of unexpected and often quirky items, some people can never help but browse the popular store section.

It's not always as random as it may seem, as each week follows a theme. This time, it focuses on things to keep kids occupied this summer, and the timing couldn't be more perfect as millions of kids spent their last days in school this week ahead of the summer holidays.

Aldi also has a handful of items to celebrate Asian culture, bringing a Taste of Asia to the supermarket. Certain special items have only hit shelves today (July 24), and it can be rather overwhelming to browse what's in stock during your weekly shop. So, take a look ahead of time at what to expect with this roundup of some new items coming into stores.

Summer fun and staycation:

If you're heading to the beach this summer, Aldi is offering an affordable wetsuit range for adults (£29.99) and children (£9.99). All versions offer a windproof way to enjoy the waves with added comfort from the stretch material.

Women's options range from sizes 10-14, while men's range from M to XL. Kids' options come in two styles—either Orange or Green—and range in sizes from ages 5-6, 7-8, 9-10, or 11-12.

Even if you're not diving into the water, Aldi's Aqua Shoes (£4.99) will help those who just want a paddle without worrying about having a painful encounter with something buried beneath the sand. Ladies can grab a pair of black and pink shoes in sizes 4-8, whilst men get the black and blue option from sizes 7-11.

A day at the beach can be made even more affordable by packing your own picnic at home, and transporting it in Aldi's Pull Along Picnic Cooler (£14.99) makes it even easier. The 40L container comes in three designs and offers a " spacious" solution to keep snacks and drinks cool "for up to 4 hours".

When you've got to make your own fun on holiday, Aldi has lots of solutions this week. Keep kids occupied on long car rides with activity books (£2.49) and colouring pencils (£1.49). Or invest in one of the Toy Mania Fidget Toy Cases (£4.99)

Set up some of your own games to play if you're taking a staycation this summer, like the Bean Bag Toss (£19.99). Burn off some energy with a range of sports balls, including volleyballs and American footballs (£3.49), or jump around with one of the cute Animal Hoppers (£8.99) .

For anyone with access to a pool, there are some items that will make swimming even more fun, from Swimming Noodles (£2.49) to a range of Novelty Floats too (£4.99). Relax on these quirky pool toys shaped like a pizza slice or ice lolly made from durable PVC and come packaged up in a convenient small box you could keep at home or take abroad in your summer holiday suitcase.

Taste of Asia and pets:

Aldi is bringing its Taste of Asia event to stores this week with more products for people to try when cooking, drinking or snacking this summer. New snacks include Hello Panda chocolates (£1.09) and Mikado chocolate-covered biscuit sticks (99p).

For bubble tea fans, two premade cans will be in the middle aisle as well, with flavours including Peach and Strawberry or Lychee and Passionfruit (both £1.25 each). The full range of items can be found around the store - including a sushi kit (£1.49), recipe mixes (59p), a Japanese Yuzu and Mandarin Gin (£16.99).

Available for just £1.15, shoppers can also pick up two new crisp flavours—Asia Green Garden Chinese Style Salt & Pepper Hand Cooked Crisps (150g) and the Asia Green Garden Japanese Style Teriyaki Beef Flavour Hand Cooked Crisps (£1.15, 150g)—both offering a unique, tasty flavour that packs a punch. The internet is also raving about the new Matcha Latte sachets (£1.49, 6pk).

It's not just about the humans at Aldi this week, with a selection of items meant just for pets - birds specifically. Whether you've got a bird of your own or want to help the local wildlife, Aldi has 2kg pouches of food from Birds Box starting from £2.49, including a Hi Energy Blend, Peanuts or Sunflower Hearts.

Aldi Specialbuys are limited-time offers on unique items that appear in stores. The theme is refreshed every Thursday and Sunday, meaning shoppers tend to have a limited amount of time to get certain products.

Often, they are sold on a first-come, first-served basis - but on occasion, if an item doesn't sell out straight away, it may be available for a few days after it's meant to come off the shelves. You can find details about upcoming Specialbuys by checking the Aldi website, picking up a leaflet in-store, or signing up for email alerts.
