BOSCH VERSION
Meanwhile, a similar version from Bosch will set you back a hefty £85 at B&Q.
It does come with a few extras Aldi's doesn't – including a sanding plate, plunge-cut blade, segment saw, sanding sheets and a handy depth stop.
The Bosch model also boasts a built-in LED work light, 6-speed settings and a battery level indicator.
But, with Aldi's £25 price tag, it's a tough deal to beat.

Cheapest UK supermarket: Lidl beats Aldi, Tesco and Asda
Which? found that Lidl had beaten Aldi for the first time since October 2023. The products included Hovis sliced bread, milk and cheese, and the consumer experts checked prices at eight of the UK's biggest supermarkets throughout July. Supermarket average price for 76 items Lidl Plus £128 Lidl £128.40 Aldi £129.25 Asda £139.53 Tesco (with Clubcard)£141.92 Sainsbury's (with Nectar) £144.21 Tesco £145.10 According to the Which? report, Lidl was the cheapest overall, beating rival discounter Aldi by £1.25 if you had a Lidl Plus card, or 85p if not. The third cheapest was Asda, which doesn't offer loyalty pricing in the same way as the others. Tesco without a loyalty card was still cheaper than shopping at Morrisons with one. What about loyalty card promotions? Sainsbury's was running Nectar price promotions on 15 items, while Tesco had Clubcard prices on 16. Meanwhile, Morrisons had two More scheme discounts on items in our basket, and Lidl had three items on our list with a loyalty discount. Waitrose had no loyalty deals on the shopping list items. It was the most expensive supermarket again this month, averaging £170.91 – that's over £42 (or 33%) more than Lidl. Why are food prices going up so much? UK inflation rose to a near 18-month high this summer as food prices shot up for the third month running. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said Consumer Prices Index inflation rose to 3.6% in June, up from 3.4% in May and the highest since January 2024. The increase was unexpected, with most economists forecasting inflation to remain unchanged at 3.4%. Chancellor Rachel Reeves says there's 'more to do' to help bring inflation down. She said: 'I know working people are still struggling with the cost of living.' 'There is more to do and I'm determined we deliver on our Plan for Change to put more money into people's pockets,' she added. Rob Mansfield, Independent Financial Advisor at Rootes Wealth Management, says: 'The cost of living crisis continues to bite. The rise in motor fuels was expected given the war in the Middle East and it shows how vulnerable our island is to events all over the globe. "Most people can't avoid these price rises, so they ask for higher wages, which can in turn drive up prices.' The figures come after gross domestic product (GDP) shrank by 0.1% in May, following a 0.3% fall in April and leading to fears of a contraction overall in the third quarter. Recommended reading: Borrowing costs are set to ease further as the Bank of England contends with stagnant growth and rising unemployment, experts have predicted. Most economists think the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will cut interest rates by 0.25 percentage points to 4% on Thursday. Interest rates have been steadily cut over the past year from a peak of 5.25%.

More people are paying tax on their savings. Here's why
About 300,000 more people are now liable to pay tax on their savings interest compared to five years ago, with the number rising from 3.06 million in 2020-21 to 3.35 million this year. These figures, obtained by Nottingham Building Society, highlight a "growing and often hidden tax burden on ordinary savers", primarily driven by fiscal drag due to frozen tax thresholds and inflation. While government rules allow for tax-free personal allowances and a "savers' allowance" of up to £5,000 interest, experts say the system is complex and emphasise the value of tax-efficient Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs). Nottingham Building Society is urging the government to simplify and strengthen cash ISAs, rather than introducing new barriers. A Treasury spokesperson affirmed the government's commitment to protecting the £20,000 tax-free yearly ISA limit, ensuring most people continue to pay no tax on their savings.

PIP review lead gives update on planned changes after Labour U-turn
Further details about Labour's review of Personal Independence Payments (PIP) have been revealed after the government's climbdown over changes to the health-linked benefit in June. The review will be led by veteran Labour MP Sir Stephen Timms, who shared more information about how he will approach the issue. Currently claimed by 3.7 million people, PIP is designed to help with extra costs incurred by living with an illness or disability. Labour's proposals to tweak the assessment criteria for the benefit to effectively make it harder to claim was met with fierce opposition from campaign groups and disabled people's organisations. Ministers backed down on the plans in late June after over 100 Labour MPs threatened to vote against the government on the measures. The concession was announced by Sir Stephen in the middle of the debate on the legislation. One of the key criticisms against the plans was over the government's lack of consultation with disabled people over the changes, leading to accusations that the legislation had been 'rushed'. Sir Stephen has now confirmed that his review of PIP will be co-produced with disabled people and disability organisations. Speaking to the BBC's Access All podcast, he said: 'We are going to be taking a lead from disabled people and representatives of disabled people in this work over the next year or so.' However, the social security minister added this will likely only comprise a 'fairly small group of ten people,' with the reviews recommendations likely then opened to a public consultation after its conclusion in Autumn 2026. Sir Stephen also said that the review is 'not intended to deliver cuts,' but that it 'will certainly have to operate within the current projections for what spending is going to be.' Labour ministers had originally planned to save around £5 billion from its planned changes to welfare spending, with £4.1 billion of this being from changes to PIP. With changes to the benefit no longer on the table, questions have been raised around how Labour may look to find these savings elsewhere. Reflecting on the government's forced U-turn over the changes, Sir Stephen said: 'I think there's been a lot of relief that that initial proposal is not being taken forward. I think people are pleased about that, and I understand why. 'What we've seen is an example of democracy doing what it's supposed to do: people express their concern to their MPs, the MPs express those concerns in parliament, and the policy's changed as a result.' 'I think that's a positive example that we need now to build on in taking forward this review.'
