Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

If you’ve ever shopped in Aldi, you’ll likely be familiar with its middle aisle, which has earned the budget supermarket a cult following.

Responsible for many a customer going in for a pint of milk only to leave with a chocolate fountain, cordless drill and wireless security camera, the aisle is home to what Aldi calls its Specialbuys – an exciting mix of top-quality, great-value products that cover a wide range of activities and hobbies, such as sports, camping, DIY, barbecues and much, much more.

The great thing about Aldi’s Specialbuys is that they’re also available to purchase online, where you can check out which products are included each week before they land in stores every Thursday and Sunday, and also skip the queues.

While the products are already bargains, with Aldi delivering impressive offers on typically pricey products, there is a way you can save even more money.

Right now, Aldi is hosting a Specialbuys sale with impressive savings of up to 60 per cent on some of its most popular items, from rattan dressing tables to velvet chairs.  But, if you want to get your hands on something, you’re going to have to act quick – once they sell out, they are gone.
