Good luck to anyone who goes to buy one. Aldi have a reputation for these "too good to be true" offers. They have a selection of goodies at knock down prices, but only issue a certain number to each store, dependent upon its customer base. It is simply a ploy to get folk in the store. It is probable each store will only have 3 or 4 of these nesting boxes, so the early bird ... and all that. They did the same thing last year sometime with flat screen TV's.
Cheers, Linda.

From what I can recall, they had the same offer last year around this time too.
Talking from experience in the trade, that is the trouble with allocations, the companies simply just don't get the stock in to cope with demand and end up having to spread it too thinly across the business.
Although hopefully since they're repeating the offer this year they have an idea of how many they need!
We don't have any local Aldi stores, so I won't be going. I would say you are right about limited supplies though, and they certainly will hope it will bring people into the store.
My local has these stacked high, at least 100 !! AND the bonus is that the camera is colour :o)
I have one up and running and already being advertised by a very vocal sparrow. I must say the quality is every bit as good as an outfit I paid over £150 for.
Well done, Dangerous.
I see they are repeating the offer on Sunday - at £39. I wonder if it will come down a pound every week!!!

Hi Sparrow, that link comes up as Sunday 8th February 2009 for me. Should it be a different one? (Not that it matters much as I haven't a clue where our nearest Aldi is!)
The necessity of bird-watching is a really good reason for avoiding all forms of housework.
The dust will still be there tomorrow - the birds may not be!
