Re: What do you like to buy at Aldi's

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.
