If you really want one of ALDI or LIDL's PC offers you have to be at the door the moment they open, and get to the till before the staff buy them all (so I've been told).

If they are on display there is often a mad scramble to beat the guy who have come in to buy the lot in one go (for resale at a profit?).

If not on display I have seen customers told "They didn't come in" then the items brought out for sale to someone else later.

One ex-store admin/checkout operator/cleaner/stacker/lorry unloader told me that he could sell dozens of the PCs or whatever, but they only normally get a couple or three in for sale.
