Really like this store. Their brand tastes just as good as the top one. One thing I like is their sprouted bread.

I just discovered the cinnamon flavored peaches. They come in small pretty glass jars and are $2.49. There is also vanilla flavored ones which I am going to try next.

I like their frozen pizzas for $2.69. They have the self-rising crust like DiGiorno's with the same taste. Recommended this product to many of my friends.

My #1 love and fav are the Brioche Buns (4 pk). Absolutely delish and freeze fantastic!

I have had good luck with their fresh chicken, (parts & whole), fresh pork as well as their hams and corned beef. Fantastic prices! (I mean in the meat section as oppose to frozen)

Great prices on eggs.

The 'specialty' items get me every time. Oils, vinegars, gifts....lots more! I have even done well with some clothes...sox, cami's, leggins, childrens jammies....I did a LOT of Christmas shopping there.

However, not all foods (canned) in their 'labels' has been a hit with me. I am not a fan of the prepackaged frozen meats nor the pre-done meats such as BBQ Beef in a pouch.

I will try everything once...but I have gone back to my name brand on several items.

The thing w/ Aldi's is you just don't know what you are gonna find! It's fun!

@orphan annie325 They have a chicken ranch flat bread pizza that is so good. I've cut it into small squares and used it as an appetizer.

I like their produce which is usually as good or better than the big chain stores and inexpensive also!

They used to have a wonderful spinach dip but haven't had it lately.

Their tissue (for the nose) is pretty good too!

When they have flowers right near the cashiers, those can be nice also.

They have a wine that is about $3 called Winking Owl Shiraz that is my favorite.

I do think their brands (esp. crackers, soups, tuna, bread) are as good as any.

Some stores are nicer, cleaner, more organized and stocked than other Aldi's I've noticed. I definitely can't get everything there.

Always worth it to go if near you!

I have two Aldi stores near me and I don't shop there.

We have better stores with better discounts than Aldi's.

I love their pesto in the little glass jars- so many prepared pestos have mystery ingredients in them. This one's great!

I stock up on a lot of basics; free range organic broth in the cardboard containers, cheeses, the large size plain greek yogurt. Cat food, unsalted pistachios, my daughter likes the protein bars with lower sugar, I usually grab a couple cans of kidney beans (I make a lot of chili!) too.

I check the produce - I've found great stuff there lately, but the locales by me get picked over fast! You've got to know your prices- eggs and milk I usually get elsewhere.

Definitely their produce. Also, their brand of pimento cheese. They have this little chocolate cake that is yummy. I have been shopping at Aldi's for a while. Don't buy a lot of meat there, but like their ribs and chicken. Bought a standing rib roast the beginning of December, hubby cut it down into steaks, and they were excellent. If you've never shopped there, give them a try.

They have cookies that are just like the Girl Scout Samoa cookies.......so good and a fraction of the price.

They have good produce prices, the canned goods are always less expensive than the supermarket - even when Shoprite has the can can sale.

We really haven't been disappointed with anything from there. The only thing I didn't care for were the cashew sweet and salty granola bars.

A week or two ago I found Halos there, at a good price too. I believe they were $2.69/3 lbs... I love those things...
