Has anybody seen the Lego flowers in their Aldi? Due in today but wasn’t even a space for them in my local and can’t decide if I make time to go to the next town to have a look

Yep, bought some today. They were in a little pink stand in front of one of the tills. I'd scoured the store and given up at that point too!
There was 1 box of frickles in my local Aldi today , I had to search amongst the tempura vegetables boxes and there was one at the back.
So keep searching when you go.
I shall try mine tonight

Does anyone know if they are finishing the Vegan stuff now Jan has finished ? Been in today and nobody shelf filling and the cashier didn't know but there was no Kefir yogurt in the yellow tubs, Kombucha bottles, 2 Kefir big bottles and 1 vegan Babybels which are really nice and not in my Asda.
They stock some things all year around but the majority is usually only in for veganuary.
Wonder if the rest will follow suit now 
I hated the new packaging when it was launched however I'm converted.
It peels opens in the corner very easily & less bulky too.
I'll be disappointed if they revert back.
These are disgusting, even the kids don’t like them and they’re not fussy when it comes to chocolate!
As are the Nutella and Jaffa style ones! They did not do this well
I must be thick (as mince) but what is the difference ? Hope Aldi can spell better than Iceland.
They've been vacuum packed and gone back to the plastic tray with film topI must be thick (as mince) but what is the difference ? Hope Aldi can spell better than Iceland.
The mince in the new style packaging is vacuum packed, so takes up less space, but is a block you need to break up with the spoon when cooking.I must be thick (as mince) but what is the difference ? Hope Aldi can spell better than Iceland.
Mine are in a plastic tray with a film top - can't go out to the freezer as it is raining but first job in the morning.
Most places are vacuum packed now, my local aldi only has changed with the last month. Tesco is still the trayMine are in a plastic tray with a film top - can't go out to the freezer as it is raining but first job in the morning.
Waitrose never vacuum packed
M&S mince is not vacuum packed. I'm not convinced it made any difference, I recycle the plastic trays, I'm never sure what to do with the vacuum packaging so it goes in the bin. All very performative, particularly when there are vast swathes of ready meals and convenience foods being sold.
The best way to reduce packaging is to encourage people to cook from scratch but that isn't going to happen because the money is in the UPF.

Had the pepperoni & honey flatbread for tea yesterday - it’s in the freezer section in Aldi. Really lovely! Going to try the goats cheese one next time 
This type of thing will make an Iceland shopper out of me!
Even cooking from scratch, most things come in plastic packaging, can't think of many things you could get without packaging so its going to markets or expensive shops.
I don't see an issue with the vacuum packed. I think all mince needs to be broken up before cooking
