Thread: $89 Aldi shop vac is back

Well spotted! They are handy vacs.

This link will take you there.

Yep that's the one! On sale from thursday 27th may.

Bewdy. Thanks for the heads-up. Been thinking I need something just like that.

I don't know what stock is like at other stores but I got the last one from Nerang at 11am.
So if you want one I'd suggest you hurry along.

Certainly worth hurrying for, wouldn't be without mine

Ditto.

They are very good.

There were about half a dozen at the Alfredton (Ballarat, Vic) store this morning about 11:30am. A few had definitely gone from the pallet.

The doorbell just rang which was unusual and when I opened the door, there stood an Aldi/Taurus Shop Vac (well actually, it was Mrs. Wood struggling to carry it).

My Dearly Beloved had been in Aldi buying a few groceries and spotted the vacs. She thought the power outlet looked useful, so she grabbed one. That was in St. Kilda at around lunch time and she thinks there were about another fifteen to twenty vacs remaining.

Well spotted that lady

Can you get replacement filters for them? I have an dying Arlec similar and can't find new pleated filters for it.

This was the original thread with all the details in it.

Thanks for the heads up Albany Creek (Brisbane) had 1/2 dozen left tonight, I will now be able to retire much abused volta.

Try Supercheap Auto. I got one from there late last year for about $10 i think.

Bought one today at rund 4:30pm at aldi in hurstville....there were probably about 17 or so left.

snapman007, where the filters at supercheap auto a taurus brand, or some other brand??

thanks

oh for those interested the hose seems to be around 35mm (same as my vacmaster 20L). The bottom bit of plastic also looks identical to the vacmaster, both the shape of the feet and how they attach. wonder if it's a vacmaster rebrand.
