What's the big round button for ?
I haven't seen that one yet over here (Germany), although I bought
a different one from Aldi in 2004 for about the same price, but it hasn't
got a 2-line display. Still works well, I mostly use it for hex-bin-decimal
conversions.
I just looked that up on the Aldi pages.

True, but the main thing is that Aldi have these "specials" almost every
week.
Taking bread, Aldi have it for $1.09 a loaf every week
As you say, any Woolwortths and Coles and IGA who happen to have a store
close enough to concern,
they have to match the price,
but in my little village, there is an Aldi miles away from IGA but IGA do
not match Aldi prices,
but the IGA 200 metres from ALDI match them.
The only problem is that it costs $10 to drive to ALDI.

Good on them if it works for them. I know they have massive buying power and

So consumers win.
