Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Despite England losing the Euros (the less said on that the better), there’s still time for glory with the Paris Olympics 2024 stretching out a summer of sport. Kicking off this Friday (26 July), Aldi is helping us celebrate the occasion with its new Specialbuys range.
The budget supermarket’s middle aisle needs little introduction, with its pocket-friendly garden furniture, affordable beauty dupes and kitchen essentials (its Our Place-inspired cooking pan has gone straight to the top of our wishlist).
Its latest drop features everything you need to mark the summer Olympics, from decorations and sports equipment, if you’re feeling inspired, to water bottles and the return of Aldi’s famous Kevin the Carrot mascot (complete with a Team GB headband to cheer on the athletes).
Whether you’re heading to Paris or enjoying the coverage at home, here’s everything to shop from Aldi’s Paris Olympics 2024 specialbuys range. As ever, they’ll all be in-store only, and are sure to sell out fast – so make sure you head down to your local supermarket with haste this Thursday.
