The supermarket has replenished its middle aisle with a range of new and returning items to end the month. The middle aisle, fondly known as the 'random' aisle, offers a range of unexpected and often quirky items that some people can never help but browse the popular store section. The Special Buys for the end of July/start of August include a mixture of items for around the home, but have a huge focus on the kitchen. There's also a batch of new and returning beauty buys, offering a bargain way to pamper yourself. Certain special items have only hit shelves this week, and it can be rather overwhelming to browse what's in stock during your weekly shop. So, take a look ahead of time at what to expect with this roundup of some new items coming into stores. One of the 'big ticket items that many will have been scrambling to get their hands on this morning is the AMBIANO Dual Zone Air Fryer (£59.99). This double version of the supermarket's own branded cooking device was previously sold in December 2024 - but now offers a great second chance for people who missed out on the digital device with 10 pre-set programs then. The large drawer, which can be divided into two independent chambers, means your cooking gadget can easily adapt between a meal for one or serving up a storm and feed the whole family. During the event, Aldi is also selling some CROFTON Air Fryer Accessories to make looking after your new kitchen tool a breeze. For £3.49 each, shoppers can get Silicone Air Fryer Basket Liners, Separators, Potholder, Tongs and more. Sticking in the kitchen, Aldi's High-Speed Blending Set (£14.99) is the ultimate time-saver and anyone who's tired of endless chopping might be interested in the Mini Food Chopper (£9.99). Aldi's gorgeous pastel Classic Kettle and Toaster (£19.99) ensures everyone can make the perfect cuppa and toast for breakfast. These classic kitchen staples are available in a selection of three colours – pastel green, beige or black to suit all home décor styles. Savvy shoppers can also bag the Stainless Steel Assortments – a versatile range designed for every home cook. With frying pans, saucepans and stock pots in both non-stick coated and uncoated options, with sizes from a compact 14cm (£10.99), medium 20cm (£14.99), to a generous 28cm (£17.99). Each piece is compatible with all hob types, including induction. To complete your kitchen revamp, shoppers might also be interested in installing a brand new tap from Easy Home (£34.99). The chrome-plated spiral-spring fixture offers "a glow up this summer without breaking the bank." Beauty buffs will be more interested in some of the new items landing in this part of the middle aisle. There's a huge focus on products that take their benefits straight from the sea, with Marine Facial Oil (£3.99), Moisturising Essence (£4.99), Facial Cleanser (£4.99), and Overnight Mask (£6.99). There's also the LACURA Illuminate Setting Spray (£4.49), which some have compared to the more expensive Charlotte Tilbury.

Cult Scots pizza spot to open second Glasgow venue
The restaurant has proven popular since its opening late last year PIZZA THAT Cult Scots pizza spot to open second Glasgow venue Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A PIZZA restaurant that describes itself as a 'slice of NY in Glasgow's West End' is set to make the move across to Edinburgh soon. Sear's Pizza opened on Chancellor Street in the west last year, founded by three of the city's restaurant experts. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Sears Pizza is set to open up a new pizza joint in the capital Credit: @searspizza/Instagram The eatery, inspired by similar joints in the Big Apple, offers pizza by the slice for as little as £2. It is set to replace the former Susie's Vegetarian Kitchen on Marchmont Road, which closed in June this year after its owners retired. The pizza joint looks as though it has been taken straight from the streets of Brooklyn, with a weathered, nostalgic look. The restaurant has proven popular since its opening late last year, with customers queuing for one of the ten options, with simple names such as 'tomato slice', 'cheese slice', and 'pepperoni slice'. Slices range from £2 to £4, with 18' pizza pies costing from £15 to £22. The restaurant was the brainchild of three restaurant owners in Glasgow; Daryl Leach, Tom Lauckner, and Paul Beveridge, owners of Bakes Pizza Al Taglio, Piece Glasgow, and Ramen Dayo respectively. Now, they are bringing their hand-tossed thin-crust slices to Edinburgh, with a shop set to open in Marchmont. This will take over the site of Susie's Vegetarian Kitchen, which used to serve fresh vegetarian meals such as moussaka, enchiladas, and pastries. Sear's Pizza recently began advertising for a kitchen supervisor/pizza chef for the new Marchmont Road location. The listing reads: 'We are excited to announce we have a new branch of Sear's Pizza opening in Edinburgh, a high-quality pizza takeaway based in the heart of Marchmont, Edinburgh. 'Known for our handcrafted New York pizzas made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, we pride ourselves on delivering consistently excellent food and customer service. 'As we grow, we're looking for a dedicated and experienced Kitchen Supervisor to join our team and help lead our kitchen operations." Sear's Pizza has been contacted for comment.

How to land a job at a home improvement firm ahead of busiest DIY season of the year
Most of the big-name home-improvement and DIY firms are on a recruitment drive, seeking new staff ahead of a busy autumn SUNEMPLOYMENT How to land a job at a home improvement firm ahead of busiest DIY season of the year Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE countdown is on to the August bank holiday and the busiest DIY season of the year. For anyone looking to fit a new bathroom or kitchen for Christmas, the last bank holiday before then brings bargains in the end of summer sales and enough time to spruce up your home before the festive season. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Claire Bailey has been with Howdens for 25 years and is a regional director for the North Credit: Michael Baister It is also peak time for home improvement firms to hire — and there is some good news for jobseekers this year. The cost of renovating bathrooms, kitchens and bedrooms has fallen for the first time since 2022, according to the latest Checkatrade Home Improvement Index, making it more affordable for cash-strapped homeowners to update their properties. As a result, most of the big-name home-improvement and DIY firms are on a recruitment drive, seeking new staff ahead of a busy autumn. Trade kitchen supplier Howdens already employs 11,600 people throughout the UK and Ireland, but is taking on 200 more, from warehouse apprentices to depot managers. One of the key roles is kitchen sales designers, with 80 new jobs available. Based in the firm's depots, the job involves helping customers plan their dream kitchen. Applicants need to be able to conduct home surveys, planning and design, manage projects from design to completion and understand building regulations. The sector is renowned for its strong career progression and many senior managers joined as apprentices or entry-level staff before working their way up. Build relationships Lauri Giambrone, director of HR trade with the firm, said: 'Our designers do more than sell kitchens. They build lasting relationships, working hand in hand with tradespeople every day to make customers' kitchen and bedroom dreams into a reality. 'Being a great kitchen sales designer is about creativity, customer relationships and sales, making it an exciting and rewarding career choice.' I swear by 7 cheap hacks to transform a newbuild house into a home - your shoes will never be left in a messy pile again Andy Attfield is the company's senior HR business partner and he said: 'People that have a willingness to learn, work hard in building trusted relationships and show entrepreneurial spirit thrive at Howdens, where the career opportunities are endless.'. Other big names in the sector include Magnet Kitchens, which has 100 vacancies, and Wickes which offers a kitchen and bathroom design service and needs 38 new staff. Find out more about opportunities available at the sites below. CLAIRE BAILEY has been with Howdens for 25 years and is a regional director for the North. She began as a business developer, making telephone sales calls but progressed to become the first female area manager in Howdens' history. Claire, 49, from Yarm, near Stockton on Tees, said: 'Kitchen sales designers will always say the best part of the job Is creating somebody's kitchen because of the joy of knowing people are going to be cooking, chatting and doing life in that space. It's lovely they have been a part of it. 'The best thing about my job is seeing people grow and develop not only as individuals but also with their careers. Howdens has given so many people opportunities and will support you in any career direction you have the enthusiasm and drive to go after, regardless of your background. 'If you want to work for Howdens, regardless of your age or experience, go and visit your local depot to get a feel for what we are about then apply for the roles. 'We offer so much support and training and we want to back people with the will.' MAKE A MEETING COUNT DO YOU have meeting fatigue? On average, office workers spend 37 per cent of their time either in meetings or coordinating them. Experts say meeting overload is 'quietly killing productivity' in workplaces. Daniel Snell from leadership consultancy Arrival has top tips to manage your meetings and get the most from them to help you work more effectively. He says: 'As budgets and resources tighten, managers need to be a lot more cost-aware and efficient. 'Here's how to show your boss you're ahead of the curve.' Protect your time: Before accepting a meeting invite, ask yourself if a meeting is the best approach for this issue or piece of work. Could we sort this out with a quick call or email instead? If there is a smarter way to make progress, it is OK to suggest an alternative. Stick to the plan: Workplaces need clear rules for running a meeting – without them, they get derailed. Always start on time. Waiting for late-comers means more lost productivity. Have a clear agenda and don't let the meeting drift into unrelated topics. Keep phones and laptops away so everyone can focus on what you are discussing. Speak up if you are confused: If you are not sure why you are in a meeting, it's OK to ask. Don't just sit there nodding – a quick, 'Can you clarify what you need from me?' will save everyone time and confusion later. Clarify decisions and ownership: Before a meeting ends, be clear on what you are expected to do. If someone says, 'We'll follow up,' ask when and how. If you are given a task, confirm the deadline. Vague endings lead to nothing getting done. Link it to the strategy: Consider whether the meeting really delivers on the company's business goals. If it doesn't contribute to what your organisation is trying to accomplish, it is probably just filling up calendars. B&Q TAKES LEAD WOMEN in management? You can do it if you B&Q it. The home improvement retailer has launched a new Women in Leadership programme to boost the number of senior female managers. Research shows women hold just 35.3 per cent of leadership positions across the FTSE 350, while the gender pay gap now stands at 13.1 per cent. Designed by women and delivered by training provider Apprentify, the scheme is open to women in the firm's stores and head office, with trainees learning how to build leadership styles, strengthen stakeholder engagement and navigate the rapidly changing workplace. Jacy Stanhope, head of learning & development, said: 'It is such an inspiring programme and it truly champions what it means to be an empowered, confident female leader. Apprentify Group's, Sophie Smith added: 'Programmes like this are so important for driving change.' Apply to work at B&Q by visiting DOG FOR VICTORY AN EX-POSTMAN has delivered himself a new role as a prison dog handler and is encouraging others to consider a career with the prison service. Daniel Allinson, 38, made the switch alongside his four-legged colleague, Kilo, at HMP Woodhill in Buckinghamshire. The pair play a vital role in keeping staff, prisoners and the public safe and Daniel says it is the most rewarding job he has had. As part of the jail's security response team, Daniel and Kilo patrol the perimeter, search for contraband and respond to incidents. Daniel said: 'It's the best decision I've made. I get to work with dogs every day and help protect the public. Every day is different and the support and training you get is brilliant.' Dog handlers start as prison officers before progressing into the specialist unit. No previous qualifications are needed and full training is provided. Salaries start at £34,402 and the service is recruiting now. See Jobspot STONEGATE PUBS has 400 jobs nationwide including managers, kitchen team and bar staff.
