Aldi has revealed the best times for customers to visit its stores in the coming weeks to make it easier to grab what you need. On a day-to-day basis, the best times to go to the shops is between 8am and 10am and then later in the evening between 8pm and 10pm. But even more specifically Aldi reckons that Sunday, December 21 and Christmas Eve (Wednesday, December 24) will be the quietest days overall. It is also important to know when the shops will be their busiest in the coming weeks and to be aware when to avoid them. “When supermarkets clear stock, especially on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, the prices drop so fast you can fill your basket for pennies,” Ricky Willis, founder of Skint Dad said.
