Aldi Australia had 608 stores as of April 2026 per ScrapeHero, and a jobs listing says about 600. Special Buys drop on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and a January 2026 report says Special Buys became available on DoorDash, starting in Victoria and rolling out nationally from 21 January.

That comes from Kimbino, a catalogue site, so it's a third-party snapshot from early November 2026 and not the company's own statement.

Australia doesn't have a general 14-day change-of-mind right for online purchases. Your rights come from the Australian Consumer Law: goods must be of acceptable quality, fit for the purpose and match the description. If something is faulty, you can ask for a repair, replacement or refund, and for a major failure you can choose a refund or replacement. A shop can set its own change-of-mind policy, so check it before buying.

Tips that save money and hassle
Cost of living pressures mean it's worth looking at own-brand products. Supermarket and discount-store own brands are often cheaper than big names for staples like pasta, tinned tomatoes, cleaning products and basic toiletries, and consumer groups such as CHOICE have repeatedly tested them against name brands. Try the own-brand version of your most-bought items and see if you can tell the difference.
Know your rights. The Australian Consumer Law gives you consumer guarantees on most goods and services: they must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and match their description. If a product has a major failure you can choose a refund or a replacement, and for a minor problem the seller can choose to repair it. A 'no refunds' sign doesn't take those rights away, and a manufacturer's warranty is extra, not a replacement.
Scams love big brand names. If you get a text or email about a missed delivery, a prize or a gift card from a shop you use, don't click the link. Go to the retailer's own app or website. You can report scams to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au, and cyber crime to ReportCyber at cyber.gov.au. If you've already handed over card details, ring your bank straight away.
Timing helps. Prices on big-ticket items drop around Black Friday, Boxing Day and end-of-financial-year sales (EOFY) in June, and groceries have a weekly special cycle. If you can wait, note today's price and check again in a fortnight.
Keep your paperwork. Save the receipt or order confirmation, take a photo of the serial number on anything electrical, and write down who you spoke to if you ring customer service. It takes a minute and makes a refund or repair much quicker.
Compare the total cost, not the headline price. Delivery fees, service charges, subscriptions and extended warranties can add up. Extended warranties are often not worth it, because your Australian Consumer Law rights already cover you for a reasonable time.
Price matching and price beating differ by retailer. Officeworks, for example, says it beats a lower competitor price by 5 per cent on identical items, while Big W doesn't appear to publish a price match policy. Always ask at the counter, bring a link or catalogue, and check the exclusions: members-only retailers, overseas sellers and clearance items are often left out.
Check the unit price on food and household goods. Shelf labels must show a price per 100 grams, per litre or per unit, which lets you compare a big pack with a small one. Bigger isn't always cheaper, and 'special' prices on one pack can still be dearer per unit than another brand.
Use the right complaint channel if you're stuck. Start with the store and the retailer's head office, in writing. If that fails, contact your state or territory consumer affairs office (such as NSW Fair Trading or Consumer Affairs Victoria), or the ACCC for broader issues. Keep screenshots, receipts and dates.
Consider the second-hand and refurbished market for big purchases, but ask about the warranty and the seller's returns policy. The Australian Consumer Law still applies to second-hand goods sold by a business, although you can expect more wear and tear.
To sum up aldi com au: check the official source, compare the total cost, keep your paperwork and use your consumer guarantees if something goes wrong.
