    "excerpt": "Aldi's middle aisle is the stuff of dreams for any discerning shopper. You'll find things in there you never thought you needed. Whether it's power tools or a handy makeup storage solution, the Specialbuys are legendary. You could say they anticipate our every move. It's what the supermarket chain does best.

Those in Yorkshire and Northern Ireland top the list of those most likely to buy a new bag after leaving theirs at home. Londoners are also the most likely group to go back home specifically after forgetting a bag. Meanwhile, others will use random things like a bucket, picnic basket, pet carrier, suitcase or wheelbarrow to transport their goodies...",
