Aldi announces strict 'two per customer' Christmas policy in all stores as popular item returns

Aldi has announced a strict rule will come into place this Christmas as a popular, fun item returns to stores. The supermarket has confirmed the return of its highly-anticipated Kevin the Carrot stuffed toys.

A short animated video shared across social media showed the stars of the supermarket's Christmas advert working on a production line, producing the new plushies.

The video caption read: "The plushie production is in full swing! Kevin and his Christmas Factory friends are available in store 16.11.23. #AldiAmazingChristmas".

Fans can collect Kevin the Carrot, William Conker and friends including the Plumty Dumptys in stores from Thursday but, as they're Specialbuy items, once they’re gone, they’re gone. Shoppers can choose their favourite stars or collect the whole ensemble, with each plush toy priced at £3.99 each.

Shoppers can even pick up a special Golden Kevin for just £3.99. The Christmas advert stars have also been given the Squishee treatment, on sale for £6.99 each.

Meanwhile mega fans can go all out by bagging the Jumbo Kevin Plush for £19.99. For those wanting to get crafty, Aldi’s Character Kits, priced at £2.99, give fanatics the chance to knit their own Aldi mascot – including the iconic Cuthbert.
