Aldi Tea Will Float Hubby’s Boat, Even If You Get Your Happy Elsewhere

We like to make cracks about English humor, but to be truthful we love it. There’s stuff that passes in the UK that just never could here, especially when it comes to advertising.

This Aldi ad is one example. Its whimsical and decidedly naughty approach to competitive pricing falls together with an equally epic tongue-in-cheek tagline: “Aldi. Like brands. Only cheaper.”

Heh. Her husband likes tea. She doesn’t.

Props to our expat amiga The Observing Participant for passing this on.
