‘OMG, need to go asap!’ shoppers gasp as THOSE Bluey chairs return to Aldi’s middle aisle & there’s a new character too
THEY caused a furore when they hit Aldi’s middle aisle last year, with parents hitting multiple stores in a bid to find one.
So it’s no wonder people who missed out on nabbing one of the viral Bluey kids’ chairs are gearing up to try and get one this time around.
The adorable soft plush chairs originally came in two different designs – Bluey or sister Bingo – and cost £24.99 each.
But now there’s a new character on the block – Aunt Trixie – who is Bluey and Bingo’s aunt and Muffin and Socks’ mum.
One shopper took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share their excitement after spotting the buy in their local store.
Posting a picture of the two chairs, showing the bins beneath stuffed full of the viral must have, they also revealed exactly where they’d found the items in stock.
“Back in Aldi bellshill,” they wrote, referring to the town in North Lanarkshire in Scotland.
“Motherwell has them as well,” another responded – mentioning the other Aldi just down the road.
Mari also shared some pictures of the chairs in her local store on the Facebook page, as she added: “I know a lot were looking for these.
“Might be an idea to check your local Aldi!”
“This is Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire,” she revealed.
“OMG!” one person raved in the comments.
To which their pal replied: “I need to go there asap! Fancy a trip tomorrow?”
Mari’s pictures also showed some of the other Bluey items to hit the stores this week – including a pop-up football goal, a wooden toy mechanics set and some adorable plush character backpacks for £12.99.
Bluey is a cartoon TV show, which follows the life of a seven-year-old dog and her family.
It is the number-one show on CBeebies in the UK.
