I generally do my grocery shopping at
Aldi because it's way cheaper than a regular supermarket. One interesting feature of Aldi is that one section of the store is devoted to non-grocery, department store type items. This can be absolutely anything - I've seen DVD players, computers, barbecues, chairs, cement mixers - you name it; they've probably sold it at some point. I really thought I'd seen it all at Aldi but today I saw a product that made me do a double-take. They were selling.... unicycles. Seriously. Unicycles. One wheel, one seat, two pedals.
I've never really spared a thought for where you'd go to buy a unicycle (not having ever been in the market for one) but I suppose I would have thought you'd have to go to a special circus-supplies stores to find one. Apparently not - just head over to your local Aldi store.
For the record, I didn't see any customers buying one.

thats funny! They do have some strange stuff there at times, I guess its like a lucky dip at the container docks for them.
I am so with you! I too have often wondered who buys these things!
