This past week, I shopped at Aldi for my FIRST TIME EVER. I'd always heard people rave about the savings there, but since I use coupons regularly and don't typically spend much at the grocery store anyway, I didn't really see the benefit.
I also thought they only accepted cash (which maybe they used to?), but I found out they do take credit cards, so I thought I would give it a try. And I'm so glad I did - here are 5 things I gave a try!
First up, I gave these animal crackers a try. They were only $1.49, which is not bad for a big box of snacks for my girls. My kids enjoyed them, and they tasted like any other animal crackers! I'd call it a win.
I saw these coffee k-cups for only $3.99!! I couldn't believe my eyes. While I was skeptical, I decided to try a box of their breakfast blend. While it is a decent coffee for the price, it honestly didn't have that rich bold flavor I typically enjoy in a coffee. While their other blends may have a different taste, it's not something I would probably purchase again, unless I was in a pinch and needed coffee and didn't want to spend $10.
One thing I'd always heard was good to buy at Aldi's is produce. I got this entire bag of limes for $.99!! I couldn't even buy 2 limes for that at Publix or Kroger. These were good quality too - perfect for throwing in a margarita or a Corona ;)
Omg. These chocolate covered toffee pretzels. My hubby and I ate the entire bag over a span of 2.5 days. And I think they were only around $2.49? Worth. Every. Penny.
Finally - we go through some baby wipes at our house. C is finally potty trained, but E is still in diapers. Plus, we use them to wipe faces, clean up spills, pretty much for any type of cleaning. These were $1.49, and equaled the quality of Huggies wipes. I can usually get wipes close to $1 with coupons, but when I'm running low, I will definitely be heading to Aldi's.
What do you like getting at Aldi's?! I'm interested in more products to try!
