Aldi is using talking a talking mushroom and loaf of bread to switch shoppers off autopilot.
In a new campaign from BMF Aldi is encouraging shoppers to slow down and ‘smell the savings’ – notice the unexpected and overlooked products at the grocery store.
BMF creative director Alex Derwin: “AIdi is always adding new and surprising products to their range and it’s these products that save you the most money. This idea is a simple and direct challenge to ALDI shoppers to look up from their lists, look around and smell the savings they can make."
Aldi marketing director Sam Viney adds: “Whilst many Australians have woken up to the exceptional value we offer at Aldi, some are still surprised to hear about the broad range of award-winning, specialty products that line our stores. Creating spokespeople out of our much-loved grocery products – and making them advocates for our lesser-known products – seemed like a fertile territory for humour, and a surprising way to break through the clutter."
