Bag a reformer Pilates machine for under £50 after Aldi's viral specialbuy sells out
Fitness fans flocked to the supermarket to get their hands on its latest specialbuy, but not everyone was so lucky Pilates is having a moment and no-one knows this better than Aldi shoppers. The supermarket recently brought its sell-out Reformer Machine to the UK last week - and it caused mayhem in stores. A sell-out success in Australia last year, Aldi became the first UK supermarket to stock the viral exercise equipment after it went available as part of its Specialbuys on Sunday, May 25, where it quickly became a highly sought after sensation. With a humble price-tag of just £149.99, the reformer machine offered a more budget-friendly version of the popular at-home gym equipment that can often retail at up to a staggering £2,000. As is the case with many of Aldi's Specialbuys, stock was limited, with the supermarket having to introduce a ticketing system after chaos erupted across certain stores, with some shoppers queuing from the early hours of the morning. For those who weren't lucky enough to bag Aldi's budget machine, then we have spotted the perfect alternative on Wowcher, and it's another budget-friendly option that is on offer for 51 percent less - although, it is "selling fast." The Pilates Reformer Machine for Home, available in black, pink and purple, meshes together the benefits of Pilates and total body workouts, allowing you to tone your entire body. Worth £99.99, it is on offer for just £49, saving 51 percent off the RRP. Whether you are a Pilates novice or pro, the reformer machine is said to be suitable for all fitness levels. Featuring auto-rebound technology, it helps to activate and train your muscles with ease. It's also equipped with a selection of resistance bands to help train your glutes, abs, core, back, chest and legs. The addition of thickened elbow supports and kneeling pads add comfort for "an all-in-one workout solution." The collapsible design makes it a portable option that will let you give your body a workout wherever you are. It also comes with a built-in smart timer that will allow you to track how long your workout lasts. To take advantage of the 51 percent off deal on the Pilates Reformer Machine for Home, you can visit the Wowcher website here. From there, all you simply need to do is purchase the deal by selecting one of the three colours you'd prefer. Homewares deal of the week With summer on the horizon, you'll be wanting to spend more time in your garden relaxing. To help keep you protected from harmful UV rays, a stylish parasol can really refresh your outdoors space. Fortunately, Asda has just bought back its sell-out item that shoppers can't stop raving over. The supermarket's highly coveted Riviera Stripe Parasol was so popular when it first launched in 2024 that it apparently "sold out in nine weeks." Now, it can be yours for just £59 when you buy it here. The supermarket's summer garden staple is said to "bring a slice of the Riviera into any garden" thanks to its trendy striped canopy and intricate tassel edging that offers a "boho touch" to the design. It's not just a stylish addition to your garden, as the FSC-certified wood pole has a lean function that allows you to tilt the canopy whenever you feel the position sun shift. Meanwhile, the polycotton canopy is said to be "weatherproof", making it suitable for unpredictable UK summers. Since the Riviera Stripe Parasol sold out within just over two months last year, it's expected that it will be popular once again this year. It's also no surprise to hear that it has managed to amass glowing five-star reviews on the George at Asda website. One delighted customer wrote: "I'm blown away by how amazing this product is. I've been wanting to get a patterned parasol with a boho touch for a while, but unwilling to spend the £150+ that they normally are. I thought I'd give this one a go, but didn't expect much for the price. "It is exactly what I wanted. Furthermore it also tips and has a lovely case. It is stylish, good, waterproof fabric and looks like something you would get from a much fancier, 'bespoke' store. I could not recommend it more." The Riviera Stripe Parasol can be bought online at George at Asda for £59 here. Like all other Wowcher deals, you'll then be sent a code to your chosen email address to then redeem the voucher. However, we'd advise bagging the deal quickly, as Wowcher has advised that it has already been purchased 1,702 times. If you do happen to change your mind after purchasing the Pilates voucher, then don't worry, as the deals website does offer a no-quibble refund guarantee on all vouchers that have been unredeemed within 14 days.

Aldi's £149 reformer Pilates machine is causing shopper frenzy– get one for £78
Aldi's SpecialBuy reformer Pilates bed launched over the bank holiday weekend and sold out within minutes Could Aldi have just launched the most popular SpecialBuy product to date? It seems so. Over the weekend, the supermarket debuted a reformer Pilates bed that had shoppers rushing to their local Aldi in an attempt to nab the £149.99 machine for themselves. However, most were met with queues, struggles and disappointment, and ultimately came home empty-handed. So what's the big deal, you wonder? Reformer Pilates – a workout done on a special bed that has hand and footstraps and adjustable resistance settings – is a huge fitness trend at the moment, with classes costing upwards of £25 per go. Most people want to go at least once a week, so you're paying a minimum of £100 every month for a few 45-minute classes. Aldi's £149.99 reformer bed is just one payment, and then you can do your own sessions right from your home. With most home Pilates beds costing a minimum of £400-£500 for a very basic model, and going up to £4k for one you'd find in a fancy studio, Aldi has made the machine affordable for all. But, as with all of its SpecialBuys, stock is limited and you won't be able to find everything new in your own local middle aisle, so what can you do if you want the bed but can't get your hands on it? You can call up other nearby Aldi stores to check for stock before you make the journey, or you can shop the next best thing for a low price point: Amazon's Foldable Pilates Reformer Board, £78.88. So if you've ever dreamed of the full-body toning magic of a reformer Pilates workout but couldn't quite justify the studio—or reformer bed—price tag, it could be for you, especially as an entryway buy if you're new to this type of exercise. Compact, versatile and coming in at well under £100, this clever kit offers multi-functional features like adjustable push-up bars and an automatic rebound ab roller—great for core strength, flexibility and balance. It's not a full sliding-bed setup, but it still brings a lot of that resistance-based goodness you'd expect from a reformer session. While Aldi's version more closely mimics a traditional reformer machine with a sliding mechanism, both products share a similar goal: delivering Pilates-style benefits in a space-saving, budget-friendly format. If you're tight on space or just starting out, Amazon's board is a brilliant, fuss-free way to dip into the trend. However, if you had your heart set on a more traditional reformer-style bed, Amazon's Pilates Reformer Machine, £341, is well worth the one-off payment. Sturdy and with all of the features that Aldi's bed has (plus more!), It'll last you years. Plus, if you're doing a class every week as a minimum, you'll make your money's worth in three months. It's worth noting that reformer Pilates is a form of exercise that typically involves guided instruction to ensure safe and effective movement. If you're new to it, it's worth heading to a few professional classes first to get your form right and learn about the machines. When using home reformer equipment, be sure to follow safety instructions, start slow and listen to your body to avoid injury.
