ALDI Expressi 2013 Coffee Machine Review: Viva La Caffeinated Revolution
Coffee might as well be a religion for some people. Everyday, all at the same time, coffee-worshippers line up to pay their tithe and receive a cup full of arabica blessings to start them on their day. So how will the hyper-caffeinated fanatics, who seem to spend quite a lot on shiny home shrines dedicated to the gods of the blessed bean, respond to the latest ultra-cheap alternative from ALDI? Is it still fanaticism if it’s cheap?
Lunchtime Deal: ALDI Heart Rate Monitor For $19.99
We kicked off our Fitmodo Challenge on Friday, where we use and test various fitness gadgets to gauge how much we’re burning. A key metric you’ll need to keep an eye on is your heart rate. ALDI’s got you covered for a heart rate monitor that won’t break the bank.
What’s A Good Buy At The ALDI Tech Sale?
ALDI’s special buy sale category this Saturday is heavy on tech, with laptops, MP3 players and TVs all on the list. We’ve filtered through what’s on offer to identify what’s a good deal, what’s average and what’s worth avoiding.
Lunchtime Deal: Budget Gadget Special
Got less than $100 in the Gadget kitty right now? You’ve got your choice of gadgets today and tomorrow. First up, Kogan’s selling off its USB recording set digital set top box for $29 as a Friday special. You could plug that set box into the tiny but inexpensive Dick Smith 15-inch $99 TV. If mobile’s more your thing, Gus over at Lifehacker notes that Aldi’s got the Huawei Ideos U8150 on sale tomorrow for $59.99, including $35 worth of call credit.

Would you buy an Android tablet while you’re picking up the milk and bread? Aldi may shortly be selling Medion Android tablets and phones.
Aldi Recalls Virus-Infected External Hard Disk
Oops. Those who picked up Aldi’s $99 Fission 4-in-1 hard drive/DVD drive/card reader combo may have got more than they bargained for. Apparently a small number were sold with malware yesterday, and though free AV software (or a clean format) will nix the issue, Aldi will give a full refund if you return it to the store of purchase.
Lunchtime Deal: Aldi / Bauhn 47-Inch LCD TV… $600
This 100Hz HDTV isn’t 3D like OHKI’s $700 42-inch deal, but does have full 1080p resolution, 2000:1 contrast ratio, and three HDMI ports. I haven’t tested the picture quality, but aesthetically, the piano black finish and glass stand appear suitably sleek. Aldi says the set is $200 cheaper than last year and includes a 2 year warranty.
