DUNDEE SHOPPER SCOOPS OVER £750 FOR LOCAL FOODBANK AT ALDI SUPERMARKET SWEEP  

The winner of Aldi’s Supermarket Sweep in Dundee has raised £757.40 for a local foodbank while picking up over £380 in Aldi favourites for herself.  

Aldi’s popular Supermarket Sweep recently arrived in Dundee and lucky shopper Jill Adam, who was chosen as the winner of an in-store competition, took part in the five-minute trolley dash for charity on Sunday 24 April.  

As well as taking home a trolley full of goodies, Jill successfully found the hidden inflatable in store, meaning Aldi Scotland doubled the total value of her haul and donated the lump sum to her nominated charity, Dundee and Angus Foodbank.  

Aldi Supermarket Sweep winner, Jill Adam, said: “I’d like to say a huge thank you to Aldi, I had such a fantastic night that was full of fun at the Supermarket Sweep. I am over the moon with how much I managed to collect and am especially proud of the amount of money I raised for my local foodbank.” 

Ken Linton, Dundee and Angus Foodbank, said: “I would like to thank Aldi and all its staff for their support and generosity. Jill was great and I am so pleased she chose our foodbank as her nominated charity. This support will go a long way in helping local people in need.” 

Richard Holloway, Regional Managing Director for Scotland, said: “We are proud that the Aldi Supermarket Sweep is a firm favourite across the country, and we are so pleased to bring it back this year. Congratulations to Jill who managed to raise an incredible £757.40 for Dundee and Angus foodbank and snap up a whole load of Aldi treats for herself.”
