Is anyone getting Aldi Pop-ups?

I seem to be getting a request for a popup every time I come onto this site, as of today. It is for Aldi. It offers me to block it but that does not work. Is it just me?

    It seems to have stopped today. No more ads for Aldi!

      I did report it. They aren't supposed to have intrusive ads (they say). I suppose it depends how you define intrusive ...

      Thanks. This one was offering a possible prize (£250 vouchers for Aldi) if I filled in a questionnaire. They gave the impression they did it once a month. As there is no Aldi around where I live and I don't remember pressing any Aldi buttons it is still unknown why it happened. I wish there were an Aldi near me!! I will see if it comes back next month.

      Hi ptolemy,

      There should not be any popups on the site so I am not sure why or where this was coming from and we have not had any other feedback about it. If you do get it again can you reply here or PM me. It would be useful if you could post a screenshot of the page you are on if you do get it again.

      Regards,

      Alan
