PARENTS have gone wild over Aldi’s new wooden toy collection and already stocked up for Christmas.
Shoppers will have to race to get their hands on the lovely budget items as the discount supermarket regularly sells out by 8am.

News of the Little Town range was spread on a Facebook group called Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and the intel has amassed nearly 2,000 likes.
One money-saving parent posted a picture of 11 toy boxes, ranging from wooden washing machines to cleaning, kitchen and shopping sets.
“All this for £135 in Aldi’s,” the proud mum wrote.
“Would cost so much more online.
“That’s my daughter done for Christmas.”
She pointed out her hoard of festive presents had been picked up from llansamlet and park tawe Aldi in Swansea, Wales.
Little Town prices range anywhere from £8.99 for their Wooden Birthday Cake play set, to £34.99 for the Wooden Toy Kitchen.
There is something for every child in the collection, with doll and coffee making sets, alongside police tool belts and fold out wooden cars.

Impressed bargain hunters flooded the comment section with amazement.
One wrote: “It’s all so cute. I got a lot last year, and around six things today.
“But I’d gone in to buy more, after going to three Aldis they had all been cleaned out, apparently they will only get this one drop of these items and it pretty much sold out instantly.”
While another said: “I went to four Aldis to get the toy kitchen, got loads more bits too they are amazing.”
“Going to have a very happy grandchild,” agreed a third.
Someone else commented: “I love it all. It’s a good price as well.”
But, one thing became clear as people swapped shopping stories – many supermarkets were quickly selling out.
“I went to llansamlet about 1pm this afternoon and there was barely anything left”, said one disappointed customer.
“I went looking for the wooden slide and arch thing like Isabella had and they had practically nothing left.”
Another had a similar experience, and penned: “Tried to get the kitchen today but sold out in both our Aldis by 8am.”
“Shame they had such limited stock. All sold out at our local store,” agreed a third unhappy shopper.
This comes as Aldi shoppers have also been going crazy for dupes of an iconic chocolate bar which are back on shelves.
The discount chain is selling full-size Bounty dupes that “taste exactly the same” as the divisive brand.
And, as spooky season arrives, customers also rushed to bag a Halloween bargain – it’s £4.99 and it will transform your home.
