We usually have problems with 'one offs' like when they did 4gig sd cards for a fiver - had all gone in 5 minutes!!!
mind you the local £2 shop is getting its revenge - theyre selling Aldi's 2gb SD cards for £4.99 -aldi are still pricing them at £9.99 :D:D:D guess who brought 3 over xmas... ;)

Yes they are a good buy, I bought them for my Disco last year to cover up a rip in the drivers seat.

worth remembering that Aldis offers are regional. Not everything gets put on the web page for all regions and all regions don't get everything.

Father in law bought a PDA with built in gps (£75) a couple of years ago from the store in carlisle. The offer never made it to the midlands  :rolleyes:

I'm just wondering why, amongst the car stuff, they are also selling a potted primula... :lol:

Regarding SD cards, there's someone on Amazon at the moment selling 1GB Kingston ones for 29p each. We ordered six last week, all came within days and work perfectly. Now have the RAVE CD copied to a card so I can take it out with me!

It is so when you come home from off roading and wash all the mud off, you have something to grow in it :lol:

Well, I just bought a pair. The front ones are a perfect fit for a Disco 1. They had rear ones as well, didn't buy one then but considering that I've been known to sling fenceposts and all sorts of other stuff in the back of mine I might well invest in one.
