Aldi shopper shares game-changing hack that will speed everything up at the checkout

If you've ever slowed down the supermarket queue by bagging your shopping, an Aldi customer has a trick that could save you some time and hassle.

Simple but efficient, it involves having baskets ready in your car boot, so you don't have to linger in the store.

User 1980sgamer posted the hack on TikTok, where he went around his local Aldi putting items in his trolley, as you do.

But then at the check out, instead of bagging his items up as he pays, he just tosses everything back in the trolley the way he did earlier, and then leaves.

The video cuts to his car, where he then opens his boot to reveal two baskets inside, the Mirror reports.

That's when he packs his groceries away, giving him the chance to organise his food He places all his groceries into each basket - saving him time inside the shop having to organise all his food.

The TikTok user said in his video: “Now you see all these people wasting their time bagging their groceries? Yeah, skip that.

“Just head to your vehicle with all your groceries loose in your cart like this.

“Now for this hack to work, you’re going to need two laundry baskets. Start throwing your food into the laundry baskets. Just keep throwing them in there until you fill it up to the top.

“When it’s done it should look something like this. So now you can just drive home.”

One person said: “This is how I shop at Costco.”

A second said: “A cooler in summer is perfect for them cold items too.”

Another added: “Greatest idea.”

The TikTok user appears to be in the US but this trick would work in UK stores as well.
