Aldi announces return of Christmas item that Aussies are mad for
Aldi has announced its festive seafood range is coming in early this year to offer Aussies the chance to stock up for their Christmas feasts.
To help shoppers spread out their spending and beat the crowds, Aldi's highly anticipated frozen seafood range will be available in stores from Wednesday 26 October.
Top of the list is lobster, with the supermarket's Ocean Royale Lobster Tails expected to once again be in high demand for those wishing to enjoy the delicacy at a budget price.
"The Ocean Royale Lobster Tails are a limited edition, seasonal product that we're so excited to bring back to customers in 2022," Aldi Shopping Expert Kylie Warnke explained to Yahoo News Australia.
"Due to high demand for these lobsters over the past few years, we expect this product will quickly be snapped up by seafood lovers to be enjoyed or stored away in their freezers for festive gatherings closer to Christmas. We're prepped for their popularity and have forecasted demand.
"We know Aldi shoppers who snap up these showstopping lobster tails will be sure to add a touch of elegance to their dining experience this year."
