In Europe Staedtler stationery is a familiar and regular special buy at Lidl, a discount supermarket chain.
I’m happy to see that Staedtler stationery is now also available at their competitor Aldi, a similar and probably better known discount supermarket chain. I don’t remember seeing Staedtler products at Aldi UK before.
It’s of course no wonder that all the pencils where sold out when I saw the Staedtler stationery. There were only a few erasers left.
