This is the best thread ever. Every single product I haven't tried before myself, I feel like I've stumbled across some hidden treasure! I love raisin bread but didn't know there was a cranberry and coconut version @Oscar C. Lobo this sounds incredible!

I also have at least one to two cups of tea a day, but @Lorraine Rea I had no idea Nerada tea was grown in Aus, I'll be switching up my tea bags for sure! @Bentley I have never tried Vaalia but usually have yogurt at least once a day for the health benefits. I usually grab the 'yopro' but I don't really like the texture as it is a bit harder (?) so will mostly certainly be giving this a try!

@Iggydi I had NO idea colour catcher was even a thing! Have I been living under a rock or what?!
Sorry the Nerada tea bags are black tea not eEnglish breakfast but taste the same!!

I love De-Solv-it for removing the sticky and gummy backings from labels, and for removing marks from surfaces. It’s made in Australia, based on orange oil, and lasts for years as you only need a tiny amount. Just a few bucks at Coles, from memory. Smells lovely and does not irritate my skin.

My favourite item is the shoo away from Aldi. We use ours all the time during fly season. They work great. The price is cheaper at Aldi.

Staying with Swiss friends in Germany one year we had raclette for tea. The raclette tabletop cooker sold for over $300 in german home stores. I found the same item, brand and all in Aldi in Bendigo for $39.95. We use it all the time.

There are 2 brands of Colour Catchers but Sard are far better the other one is by Vanish Colour Absorber and they are smaller and don't seem to catch as much colour leaving your clothes a bit blah

I love Aldi plain mineral water. It’s 90 cents a bottle. No calories but gives you the fizz on the throat you sometimes need. You can add juice to it if you want a healthier type of softdrink with some flavour and you get 10 cents back on the bottle
 
What are these?
Hi Isabell. They are called ‘shoo away’ as the two blades spin around the top of it when switched on. They work on batteries. When placed on an area with food you switch them on and it actually keeps the flies away. I find they work great and really do a good job. They retail for around $12 at Aldi.

Hi Maddie, Just wondering has the competition for the best photo been announced?
 
Aldi's frozen Potato Gratins are fabulous. Cook them in the oven, toaster oven or frypan. Add a little butter to the top. Plain or spinach varieties are great. Such an easy and tasty way to serve potato.
Can it be cooked in an air fryer?
