Based on the deal post previously where the Edge 25 was listed at £79.99 I looked to see if it was still available. On the ALDI website it is listed as an in-store only deal. It was still £10 cheaper than anywhere on-line.
I went to the Luton store today where they had plenty in stock. The store display for this was marked up at £79.99.
When I got to the checkout it scanned at £59.99. I've no idea if this is a national deal, but assuming it as the store hadn't marked the price down.
Here's a copy of the receipt: http://s74.photobucket.com/user/JamesK1975/media/receipt.jpg.html
This is my first posting, so hopefully have done this correct.

Hot!! Really good price, but doesn't bode well for Garmin if they are forced to flog these off cheaply to Aldi!

I've read quite a few reviews, and it seems you need to turn off the Bluetooth live tracking to get around 8 hours out of it.

why would you want this when you can have strava for free. Can anyone can tell me the benefits of this over strava

I didn't want to have my iPhone mounted to the handlebars of my bike. I was worried it wouldn't be secure or would be damaged if i fell off the bike. On top of that having the screen on the phone active for long periods would kill the battery.
So I'd started looking at the entry level bike GPS devices. The Edge 25, Lezyne Mini (£72) and Polar M450 (£106). At this price point they all have pro's and con's. But seeing the Edge 25 at this lower price made me feel it was worth a try, even if the battery life may not get to 8 hours with Bluetooth live tracking enabled.

It syncs to Strava. For me it means I don't drain my phone on a long 4-6 hour ride but can see how I am getting on. Can also upload a route on advance and follow directions on it (pretty basic admittedly)
