        A Bargain is an item currently for sale that is cheaper than equivalent items elsewhere. NOT necessarily $$$ off normal store price, So what if this is a normal price for Aldi, if its cheaper than any other store - that IS a bargain. You could well argue an app for measly $1.99 now free is a crap offer, are you going to neg all those deals?

  • chillybags on 31/08/2011 - 16:38

    they are once off products, not normally on the shelves, thus they do not have a normal price. But their stuff is usually good value, bought at 32inch tv a couple of weeks ago for $250.

      Wow, a 32inch tv for $250.

      doesn't mean there are any bargains this week though…

      Should I post the current Myer catalogue because there was a bargain there last Christmas ?

      • chillybags on 31/08/2011 - 16:54

        "Aldi Special buys - 08 Sepetember" i didnt say it was a bargain, i said it was specials. and im soooo sooorrry for posting something that isnt "bargain" and only a special.

      It looks like their normal price if its the same one they've been selling for the last 2 years…

        they arent normally sold at aldi, like i said before

        however a steam cleaner from harvey norman would set you back $299, obviosly of better quality but still a hell of a lot cheaper

          however a steam cleaner from harvey norman would set you back $299

          i doubt it is the same as the $30 one from Aldi…

          Are you next going to post the price of a new Daewoo and say it is a bargain because it's cheaper than a Porsche ???

        • chillybags on 31/08/2011 - 17:00

          i never said it was the same. its a product available once per year, thats how aldi works, they sell a product for a cheap price, and then its over. if it worked well a year later they might sell it again.

          i never said it was the same.

          We bought a steam cleaner from Aldi and found the water reservoir too small and hard to access/fill. Check the current ones before you buy.

      • chillybags on 31/08/2011 - 16:58

        well there you go, there are reviews saying that its good. and its only available once a year, so why dont you go and grav one whilst its hot.

          Chilly, we appreciate the posting but I think the point is to tell us what the bargain is in the title or description. I'll edit your deal to add the $30 steam cleaner.

          I only read that one page of reviews you linked me. seems your trying awfully hard to try find reasons why this is 'such a bad' post… why dont you just go away. if you dont want to buy anything from there, then dont. i guarantee you that many people will go in to aldi and buy they things they have to offer.

          seems your trying awfully hard to try find reasons why this is 'such a bad' post…

          seems you should read the posting rules…

          POST a clear title including price
          LINK directly to the deal.
          CHECK competitors prices before posting.

          http://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:rules_guidelines

          If you know there is a good bargain or two in a sale, catalog or store, it's a good idea to mention one or even two bargains, in the title, and provide direct links where possible, to those items.

          seems your trying awfully hard to try find reasons why this is 'such a bad' post… why dont you just go away.

          How about listening to the people who are trying to help you instead of getting angry at them?

          Try reading this: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:deal_posting_guideline…

          A few particular points from that page that you may want to keep in mind:

          • State the merchant and product model, and provide a brief description if you wish.
          • State the price.
          • Summarise briefly why it is a bargain - why did you buy it or consider it worth sharing? How does the price compare to elsewhere? Can you comment from personal experience on the quality of the product?

    no need to shoot the messenger. i saw aldi were having specials and i thought they were pretty good. so i thought i would post them. If you dont want to buy it, dont buy it.

    • furyou on 31/08/2011 - 17:16

      don't post a proper bargain, you get shot down

      yet you didn't post any bargains or stated why they are bargains ???

      Everyone here knows that Aldi publish their new catalogue each Thur…
      We only want to see bargains, not a note to tell us the new catalogue is out…

        bargain "A thing bought or offered for sale more cheaply than is usual or expected".

        Ill agree that in the example of the steam cleaner it is at the same price as it was last time it was on sale. but it "or expected", one would expect to pay more that $29 for a steam cleaner, which means it is classified as a bargain, and thus can be posted on this website. Just because you dont think its a bargain doesnt mean it isnt.

    If you spent as much time on creating your original description and title as you did with your comment replies, this wouldn't be an issue. Looking at other posts would have been a good start, and instead of arguing with JV updating your original post would have been the more constructive approach. A mod shouldn't need to hold your hand to complete the most basic requirements of a deal post.

    I really dont see anything that resembles a bargain or a good buy this week at all

  • flipstardirect on 31/08/2011 - 17:53

    not a bargain for me, just being honest.

    A good tip is to try and link to other similar items or models and compare RRP's or something at least.

  • phluffed on 31/08/2011 - 18:01

    The 9kg top loader for $399 is a good buy. Got one a couple of years ago and it's been faultless.
    The wooden toilet seat is about $5 cheaper than Bunnings.
    The dustpan & long handle broom is about $8 cheaper than Oates brand from Bunnings/Kmart/Big W

    But yeah, the steamer isn't even as good a deal as the one they had a few weeks ago.

  • Hirokuro on 31/08/2011 - 18:08

    Arguing on the internet is complete idiocy in my opinion. Grow up!

    In regards to this deal I agree with everyone elses views that this is definitely not a 'bargain'.

    Nice, I'm glad I saw this post cause the steam mop will be really useful!! That price is much cheaper than any other ones that I've seen.

    Also, the shirts look like a bargain! Thanks.

  • samfisher5986 on 31/08/2011 - 19:00

    These negative comments just show the problem with some of the ozbargain community…

    Its pretty simple, don't neg unless you can show it cheaper elsewhere!

    Lets just say this is the cheapest product, I'm guessing there would be little interest on ozbargain for many reasons.

    In which case this should stay with 1 vote and just get pushed off the new deals page.

    There is no reason to be negative and act like the OP has done something wrong!

    A simple post about why nobody is interested in this bargain would allow him to post something better in the future, we aren't all born with 5 years of bargain and Aldi history.
