Aldi’s school sale will land in stores later in June
Aldi has reminded shoppers that its major school uniform sale is coming up in a matter of days, with the return of a popular £5 offer. The retailer is warning shoppers they “must be quick” as the range, starting at just £1.50, will be available in stores from June 28, while stocks last.
As part of the school uniform sale, the budget supermarket is bringing back its popular £5 uniform bundle. Available in a range of sizes from ages four to 12 years, the bundle includes a choice of two high-quality Girls’ Polo Shirts (£1.75) with ruffle collar detail or classic Boys’ Polo Shirts (£1.75), both available in white or blue.
There’s also a navy or red Sweatshirt (£1.50) or a smart Cardigan (£1.50) in red, plus a choice of durable Trousers (£1.75) for girls and boys, a Pleated Skirt (£1.75) or versatile Cargo Shorts (£1.75) in grey.
The bundle comes with a 12-month satisfaction guarantee. Aldi said: “So parents can rest easy knowing the uniform is made to last and will get their kids through the year.”
Aldi is also stocking footwear from £7.99 in a choice of three girls’ and two boys’ styles. The supermarket said: “All with a memory foam insole cushioning every step from the classroom to the playground, they’re designed to keep kids comfortable from the first bell until the last. Complete the necessities with a five-pack of Ankle or Knee-High Socks (£2.49).”
And, new for this year, parents can snap up a selection of Back to School Hair Accessories (£1.99) featuring everything from practical headbands, clips and bows to vibrant ties and scrunchies in school-appropriate tones of blue, red, or green, reports the Express.
The average school uniform costs families around £340 for primary school and £454 for secondary school each year, usually covering compulsory branded items, generic clothing, PE kits, and school shoes. Wherever feasible, these budget-friendly Aldi alternatives could offer parents some much-needed relief.
From this September, schools will be legally obliged to limit the number of branded uniform items to three (excluding ties) under fresh legislation introduced as part of the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. According to previous estimates from officials, this could save parents up to £50 per child.
