If you love an ALDI bargain - and frankly who doesn't - then you'll want to set your alarms early on Saturday 23 September. The special buy on offer is a bargain to end all bargains - and it's one your kids will go mad for.
Blogger, The Kidz Curator, first shared the news that the 22kg 6V Mercedes-Benz Ride on Car will be available in stores for $199. "When your kid has better wheels than you do," she posted to Instagram, with a snap of the snazzy-looking kid-size vehicle.
Take a look:

If your little one isn't really a luxury car kind of person, then don't despair. Along with the Merc, ALDI is also selling a V Caterpillar Electric Tractor - with a dump bucket - for $199.

Going by the response to the news on social media, if you're keen to nab these gems, you'll want to forego your usual Saturday morning sleep in (ha ha), limber up, and make sure you're adequately caffeinated so you can take on the crowds.
"There will be an all-in-brawl for these!" wrote one mum
"There's definitely going to be a line for this one!!" said another.
Fisticuffs have also been predicted. "Omg Yass Bae would slay!!" on mum added. "Get ready for a mummy ALDI punch on for this one."
Ladies, start your engines!
Good luck.
