Cheap shopping at Aldi
Aldi is known for its premise as a discount grocery store, but any regular Aldi customer knows that there are still some things that are not necessarily the best deal. On the other hand, the store has a number of products that are such a Good Deal, they’ve achieved go-to status for thrifty shoppers.
1. Chicken breast
If chicken breasts are part of your regular grocery shopping, you probably experience price fluctuations—unless you shop at Aldi. While other grocery stores experience significant price fluctuations for chicken breasts, Aldi keeps prices more consistent, charging about $2.50 per pound for family-size packs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
2. Whipped cream
Whipped cream is one of the most random highlights of shopping at Aldi. In recent years, this stuff has cost about $6 at grocery giants, but at Aldi, it’s often half that price.
3 eggs
Aldi prides itself on its low egg prices and customers confirm this by buying their eggs there.
4. Milk
Milk is another product that Aldi offers the lowest prices for. A liter of milk at Aldi is usually cheaper than at any other grocery store.
5. Paper plates
When we buy paper plates, we usually stick to Costco, but in a pinch, we (and the rest of our frugal friends) can rely on Aldi to provide paper plates at affordable prices.
6. Crisps
Thrifty Aldi fans love the store’s chip selection. They have good flavors (especially the seasonal ones) and consistently low prices.
7. Produce
Fruit and vegetables are generally cheaper at Aldi than at other food giants. From strawberries and apples to carrots and celery, Aldi customers stock up on fruit and vegetables.
8. Grated cheese
Is there a cheaper place than Aldi to buy grated cheese? It’s one of the store’s highlights.
9. Feta cheese
We are professional budget shoppers and can say with absolute certainty that feta cheese is Aldi’s best kept secret. Here you can get the cheapest feta without compromising on quality.
10. Rolls
Aldi has rolls, honey. And cheapskates everywhere have them on their Aldi list when there’s a barbecue on the menu.
