Butter was $2.29 a pound at Aldi today. Lowest price I've seen in a while.

That's a great price. I have a cousin who buys Land o' Lakes brand only, no matter what the price. I can't tell the difference.

Thanks, this is great for baking. Normally at this time of year I see butter on sale 2/$5 but not this year so far. I do prefer Land o Lakes or Hotel Bar but they are $5.99 lb here! Everything is getting so expensive. I finally saw turkey hill egg nog at my store yesterday and picked it up for hubby, I know it's expensive but didnt expect to look at my receipt and see 6 dollars!!

I only prefer Cabot butter, but have had to resort to cheaper butter.......that I now only use for baking, and the Cabot for eating on my potatoes, and squashes and such, that are not baked goods........Cool

That's a really good price, considering what butter is going for in the regular grocery stores. I have an Aldi's a few miles away and will get there on the weekend.

Yep, Mom said it's almost $6/lb up in NE PA. At Aldi here it's abut $3.50/lb. Too bad I can't send her some!!

During the year I fill my freezer with cheap butter. You get it cheap around a holiday. But not this year. I have seen butter at 3.98 lb.

Best price I've seen for LOL is $3/lb this week at Meijer. So I bought 10lbs for the freezer so far.

I tried a less expensive brand they carried called ""Challenge"". OMG. I tried melting for a recipe and each time it explodes!. Too much water content.

I do pick up a couple of European butters for holiday dinners.

WOW, that's fantastic! I get mine from Costco, 4-1# packages/$10.99 and felt that was pretty darn good since I've been seeing ads for around $4.00, which is ridiculous!
