Latest Aldi TV Offer-40" LCD For ££££££!!!!

ALDI have taken the liberty of offering what seems like a super specced LCD TV, only problem is the price is missing!! Supose they want to build up the expectations, based on their history it should be another bargain, anyone know the price feel free to reply.

And now someone has posted that they will be £699.

I think they may just be trolling though

So £849 it is. Shame, £699 would have swayed me, 4 weeks from now I would imagine a price drop to that sort of price.
