I know, I know...you may be a little intimated (or freaked out) by the name, the building, the fact that you have to use a quarter to "rent" your grocery cart. But, let me tell you...it is so worth it!
(FYI: I actually take my own recycled bags so I didn't even have to worry with a cart.)
Here's what all I purchased today:
A Bag of Spinach Salad
A Can of Tomato Sauce
A Lemon
A package of 3 large Yellow Squash
(2) 1 lb pkg of fresh Broccoli
A 1 lb pkg of Bananas
A 2 lb pkg of Red Grapes
A 1 lb pkg of Strawberries
A 3 lb bag of premium Gala Apples
4 large Fuji Apples - you can buy apples individually!
1 Granny Smith Apple

My Grand Total = $15.68
Now that is incredible! Try buying all that at Reasors, Food Pyramid or even Wal-Mart, and you will pay almost twice that amount.
So, my point is...I'M ALL ABOUT ALDI!
(Side note: I mainly only purchase produce there...not crazy about processed, packaged food. Their produce is really, really good! And, if you ever have a problem, they will take anything back and refund your money!)

TRY IT OUT...SAVE SOME $$$!
p.s. Another TIP: You can take your Sunday Aldi ad with you to your local Wal-Mart and they will price match the produce, i.e. 1 lb bag of carrots .89 cents, broccoli $1.29 lb, etc. - I do this a LOT too! :)

Ok, you are right.... it always seems so.... WEIRD! but if you like it, then so would I!!! I just do what you do! :) Thanks for yet another great tip.
I was at Aldi today! I will say that I have had to take produce back because I found mold on apples the day after purchase and some grape tomatoes that tasted HORRIBLE. But all in all, I have been pleased & excited about the savings.
Okay. So. I DO shop at Aldi's. But I have to say it TOTALLY depends on your store as to the freshness of your produce, bakery items, etc. Our store here in Owasso is GREAT! And I agree...you totally can't find those steals of deals at Reasor's!!!! Some of their products my family passes on so I just head on over to Reasor's and pick those up on the way home!
Yay for you being frugal, Katie!
Get out! I did not know that about Walmart price matching produce from the Aldi's ad -Thanks!
I'm a long time Aldi fan but had no idea Wal-Mart would price match!! Yippee! I hope to be out of diapers soon but we LOVE their diapers. We've used them for years. Sometimes when I don't want to make the trip I break down and buy huggies or pampers and I am always regret it. Who would've thought???
I didn't mean "I" hope to be out of diapers soon...I meant Charlie...I'm sure you knew that...
