You're at MY Aldi! I love Aldi. I meal plan and shop exclusively from there and it saves me so much money and time. We used to be on a tighter budget and it was a saving grace!
I buy most of my meats from the meat market, i send about 100 dollars , then u buy the rest of the food at Aldi's , i will spend about 200 there a total of 300.00 for the month it's me my son and i have my granddaughters with me alot of time when my daughter's is working and i feel like I get a lot for my money i will have to go back for maybe milk and bread i freeze most of the bread and milk and still have to go back my gallon of milk is .95 cents and eggs,79 cents i stock up, I'm in love with my Aldi's i live in South Carolina TFS
I love aldi. It’s just my husband and I now. I spend about $300 a month on food, cleaning and household supplies for both of us. I eat keto, and I eat a lot of meat and right now very low carbs, like around 15 or below. My husband eats “regular “. We try to only eat out once a week, but we are going to try to do your other channel’s January no eat out month challenge! 💖👍👊 I make many things from scratch including most meals, cleaning, laundry and soap. We go shopping once a month, first to aldi and then go to Walmart and a my local Kroger’s for what aldi doesn’t have, and to Costco. I make another run to get fresh fruits and veggies mid month. I haven’t had anything from aldi that is not excellent. My husband LOVES the bbq chips, I eat keto so I can’t comment but he’s picky. Aldi most definitely has the best prices hands down AND quality. I raised my boys on aldi, they are big guys and grown up now and on their own, but we would have never made it without aldi’s good cheap prices when they were teens! I don’t go to Trader Joe’s. You do know that aldi and Trader Joe’s is owned by same German family?
I second that. Many of the "store brand" items that we've bought are exactly the same as the name brand; I would bet money the cereals are private labeled. Some Aldi brand items I just prefer. The soda waters are the best deal and are better.
I have shopped at Aldis for about 30 years. I started with stockups of canned goods and paper products. Little by little, I expanded my sh opping until I do practically all of my hopping at Aldi. There are some items I have yet to try so I am interested in your hauls. Thank you for taking us along.
If u don’t like it, 1. They will refund you and 2. Replace it so you can’t go wrong! Aldi is the bomb! Jasmine rice is a steal ttere😁 We only get there OJ at aldi! The kids like the one with mango or pineapple juice 😁 Best whipping cream!
Those milk chocolate sea salt caramels are good but the dark chocolate versions are DANGEROUS!!! I get them every year at Christmas and they are gone by New Year's! I eat them for breakfast with my coffee, no lie. GET IT GIRL!!!
I don’t eat meat however my guys love the Trader Joe’s orange chicken over Costco even though you get more at Costco. I’ve had great success with Aldis produce but you must use it quickly it doesn’t have a long shelf life.
Try Kombucha! Its like a tangy soda. Also, the taste of fruit is all dependent on the season. Strawberries have 2 natural growing seasons throughout America. Other times of the year they wont taste fresh or sweet. Also fruit coming from Mexico and other countries can (not always) lack flavor because of how early they are picked and how long it takes to ship to you
We love their Oreos, fudge stripes and peanut butter patties. I never see the keto bread either but another UA-cam’s said they keep it in the freezer and that you have to ask for it. Produce seems to go bad more quickly for me at Aldi. Eat it fast and it’s fine. We love their chips too
My kids LOVE the Great Value BBQ chips from Walmart! They prefer them over the Lays brand. I get the family size bag for 2.12. We are a family of 5 and spend about 500-600 a month on groceries. I do all our grocery shopping on the Walmart grocery app, then we do the free pick up.
Trader joe vitamins are amazing. I will say that! I’ve tried many many vitamins and I have an autoimmune disease and I’m happy with Trader Joe’s. Olive oil is cheaper at Aldi!
Aldi is so great price-wise, I can literally fill my cart with cans there and pay under $100. At Walmart that would easily cost me twice that price or at least 1.5 times. I forgot to tell you that their canned vegetables and beans are great as well, so is the frozen hamburger meat that comes in the little tubes (almost like a Jimmy Dean sausage tube). So cheap but so good. OH also the spices!!! Girl have you seen the spice rack?? And the baking aisle??? I am now realizing I've tried everything in the store at least one time lol. I do love it though. The only reason I don't go there more often is that they don't carry everything I need like Walmart does, and I don't like making multiple stops.
The thin mint cookies (green box) at the Dollar Tree are the bomb.com...taste exactly like the Girl Scout thin mint cookies. I place them in the freezer and eat them....DELICIOUS!
I love ALDI. I love about 3 minutes from one. Your ALDI is to be admired! I’ve never seen that much good stuff in there. I like ALDI shredded cheese and sliced Fit cheese. I love finding gifts especially good candles. I buy the Italian sausage - it’s half the price of grocery stores. I buy the tube yogurt for my son. Bacon is usually cheaper. The O’Donnells knock off to Baileys is delish and more potent. The Fritos are good and tortilla chips. I buy canned goods, pancakes, waffles. I buy the spray butter and seasonings. I buy the many things here! I try to do $100/week - family of 3. I’d be interested to try $300.
I like Aldi and we do save shopping there. The one thing I don't like is they make their margin with "shrinkflation" of package portions. I have to buy two or three packages at Aldi instead of one anywhere else.
Sherri Exley aldi and Lidl are also from the same brothers....I am from Belgium and last time I went I saw some products from trader Joe that I only know from UA-cam but ofcourse I had to try it and it was great so I hope to find more new stuff next week 🤪😉☺️
Lidl copied the Aldi concept and is a competitor. ALDI and Trader Joe’s were founded by the Albrecht brothers. In Europe, they are Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd depending on which country you’re in. They operate as separate companies. The US is the only place with both: Trader Joe’s is owned by Aldi Nord.
Ialso go to Aldi's before I go anywhere else. The heavy cream is really good just get two pints. It will be a great savi gs. As alot of other treasures there. Tey the pork chops they are the bomb! Trust me fry them up they are like butter!!!
Aldi is the spot if you’re keto. I wish the one by me had the keto bread tho. The produce isn’t good imo. But everything especially snacks for the kids 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I always make mine with homemade buttermilk cornbread but this year I used Jiffy. I did not know Jiffy mix had sugar in it so it was like sweet cornbread. I still used it and my dressing tasted off. Will NEVER do that again!
Yeah I don’t think I could do sweet dressing I’d rather have the cranberry sauce. But to each his own my taste is different because I’m also the only one in my family that enjoys sushi 🍣 so when I eat it I get the same reaction I’m giving now at home 😂
i just found your channel today and am hooked, we dont even have aldi in el paso lol but we are moving to florida next year and i saw they have this store so im doing my research like a crazy person a year early
Aldi had the lowest price on Kerry Gold Butter and recently they have their own brand of Irish Butter and so many say it's made by Kerry Gold. I swear they taste exactly the same. Best butter ever! Love the thin mint cookies and the vanilla coffee creamer. It has real milk and cream in the ingredients. The Who Needs the Bagel seasoning is so good. It's only $1.99 and it's in the seasoning aisle. I put it on eggs, veggies, sandwiches, and with cream cheese on a bagel. Aldi has great bagels too only $1.99 for six good size bagels.
We have a household of 4 and we try to spend $125 or less a week. It’s been working but ONLY bc I have a separate debit card. I typically lose all self control in the grocery store.
Jia, The Aldis Sweet Hawaiian Rolls taste just like Hawaiian rolls. Also the BBQ chips are pretty great too. Also the have this limited edition Apple strudel bread excellent too.
One reason for the orange juice price hike is that the orange groves are being attacked by a particular pest that devastates the trees and can only be erraticated by burning. Thus, the groves are dwindling.
Kombucha reminds you of a very strong soda. I love it; gives an energy boost and most brands of it provide a high number of probiotics. That was a good price for Health-Aide; it’s normally $3.99 per bottle. The cream is great too at Aldi; quality wise it’s comparable to any other brand IMO; Target used to have a great price on their Market Pantry kind but they raised the price (even before they changed to good and gather). I like the idea of $100 pp for groceries and no eating out challenge. I am definitely up for the challenge for our family. Between eating out because we’ve been out all day, and eating out because I have yet to go grocery shopping and having a brunch date with my sis or date night with my fiancé and the eating out every Friday because it’s my “no cook day” it has turned into more days of eating out than in. The shame of it all is that I looooveeee to cook 😩😏. Gota do better; this is a good plan/place to start.
mz Kaye that’s why I’ve avoided Keto. It’s just too restrictive; I gota pretty much avoid most of what I love...lol. Ive had sucess going vegan (as far as weight loss) and I do wonder how a Keto diet would fair in comparison.
Ok yes the soups are awesome, the chips are awesome, my husband is a bbq chip snob and LOVED the Aldi version. I only get the produce if I'm going to use it the same day or next day though, it's all subject to expire pretty soon after you buy it. The frozen pizzas are good and so are the fresh ones. Cheese sticks are good, and most of the frozen food you find there (prepared meals etc) is good, especially the desserts.
Great hauls. I am a tried and true Aldi shopper. I don't have a Trader Joe close so I don't shop there but still enjoy seeing what you pick up. I will be looking forward to your next video until then please take care and God bless!
My sister is having twins this month (Dec) and she told me she's got an Aldi near her. I'm staying with her briefly to help out and I'm so excited cause where I live, we don't have an Aldi 😁😀😎
Absolutely LOVE ALDI!! Such great quality products ! And that seasonal aisle (random items) ... OMG.. the best!! Yes , My kids eat non stop too when thy are home. I have 2 teens so so much food!! I do manage somewhat to stay on a budget though .
I recently fell in love with Aldi's. Had never been there till I retired. I could kick myself now for not going sooner. The knock-off cookies are fan-damn-tastic. I keep the "thin mints" in the freezer all the time.i love the breads and different milks. Gotta be careful with the produce though. I average $10-20 week. Just me.
You seem to buy a lot of processed foods. You may want to check the long list of ingredients for salt and also MSG(yeast extract/yeast flavoring and 40 other names for this flavor enhancer) for processed foods you really crave.
Merry Christmas! I love Aldi... So why don't I shop there more? Hmmm I see a change coming in my future. As to Aldi's quality.. the only canned goods I've not been happy with are green beans. I've not tried their whipping cream but i do know that some off-brands of 1/2 & 1/2 tend to be more watery than others. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the whipping cream. I roll up our living room throw blankets and store them in those canvas laundry baskets. perfect storage and helps keep them from being all over the room - and no one can trip in them hanging off the edge of the sofa. ;-)
FYI Trader Joe's and ALDI is owned by a German company called Albrecht Discounts, ALDI is a discount grocery chain that started in Germany in 1948 so same owner. Thanks for sharing.
We go grocery shopping twice a week, and spend between 50 to 100 euro per time (depends on what we need, and what's available), for 3 people. We are Aldi & Lidl shoppers (Belgium).
$50 per week but it's just me. I shop at Kroger, I think I'll try Aldi. I love Trader Joe's but it's across town plus it's tiny and always so crowded. I spend too much at Trader Joe's too because of all the specialty items.
I have family of 5 and spend about 500 a month on groceries. Aldi is awesome for alot of things for my fruit I go to Kroger though. Sadly I don't have any Trader Joe's close by.
I guessed 45! Lol i love aldi. We try to do 100pp pm. But we are a vegan & vegetarian family of 5...ys 2 large dogs a cat and the 2yr in diapers . I can't figure it out! Some say to include household items ....
I bought a young turkey it just means small lol not the size that looks like it will get up and walk off way too big lol but yea I liked the young turkey it cooked up in less than a millennium lol
I love Aldi, too! Ours has really good produce both in prices and flavor. Occasionally it will go bad quickly, but not very often. Also, I love the cream and other dairy products, I hope yours were good! And then the Aldi random aisle, it’s the best! We budget $400/month for our family of 4 (we also have a baby but he doesn’t eat much solid food yet). We shop mostly at Aldi but get our meat at Wegmans because their prices are better and we can get the huge family packs.
I haven't shopped at Aldi in awhile because of how much I love their snacks. I can't resist buying the german chocolate and I would always end up spending half my grocery budget on cookies and snacks rather than actual food. Those girl scout cookies? I've tried their version of tagalongs and samoas and I like them both better than girl scout cookies at a 1/3 of the price and available all year around (I still definitely support my local troop and give them money every year though). I like their breakfast bars except for the Elevation ones. Their knock off Nutri-grain bars and knock off Nature Valley Sweet and Salty cashew bars are pretty decent and very inexpensive (I can taste a difference, but it's not enough for me to care most of the time considering the price difference). I would have gone ahead and bought the heavy cream - I like Aldi yogurt well enough and it's the same brand that does the yogurt. I can be kinda picky about their dairy stuff (I don't like Aldi cheese, mostly). Produce for me is hit and miss - A lot of times I think their produce tastes better but imo their produce doesn't last. I don't buy produce there I can't eat in 2-3 days. I still find the best deals here for that at the roadside stands/farmers markets. Tastes excellent and tends to actually last. Also, if you love and go through a decent amount of jasmine rice? Go buy it at an Asian grocery store. You'll have to buy 10-20 pounds of it, but you're never going to get a good price for rice at a regular grocery store. I've realized now looking at how much other people pay for food that the $50 a week I normally do might be too much. So these days I'm trying to get down to $30 a week. Been doing good the last few weeks but looking at my shelves this week looks like I definitely need to do a pantry restock so I am probably going to go over that this next time. Got lucky and didn't have to go at all this week. Being a single girl who goes over to Dad's for thanksgiving has its perks!
I like shopping at Aldi much more than I used to, but I haven’t been able to completely cut Walmart. Their selection is still better for the other items I buy, but I like buying all my outer isle stuff (sprouted bread, produce, dairy, I like Aldis Never Any brand, etc) from Aldi. I also struggle with not filling my kitchen with a ton of snacks and junk food, so that money still goes out the door with my snack-attack husband and child 😏
I have to agree with your mom, I've never gotten good produce from Walmart. I've never tried Aldi, so I can't speak to them. Depending on what I need, I either buy from roadside stands or go to Publix. There is a good Farmer's Market nearby, but the prices are a bit high for my tastes.
I’ve been to Aldo once. It reminded me of an OLD military commissary. The selection was so-so, the store was cramped, and a warning sign about shopping baskets and bags would have been nice. Granted, I’m basing my comments on the one location in the area. As for your girls eating you out of home, they all go through that. I seemed to be at the supermarket every other day when my daughter went through that stage. I can’t figure out how we survived. And we have one child. People with more than one child must feel like they are on the verge of bankruptcy.
Aldis is my jam, my store, the place to go👍🏾💁🏾♀️
I exclusively shop at Aldi! I don’t find the produce to be bad-I’ve had produce turn on me from any grocery store! Sometimes it just the batch you get
You're at MY Aldi! I love Aldi. I meal plan and shop exclusively from there and it saves me so much money and time. We used to be on a tighter budget and it was a saving grace!
I buy most of my meats from the meat market, i send about 100 dollars , then u buy the rest of the food at Aldi's , i will spend about 200 there a total of 300.00 for the month it's me my son and i have my granddaughters with me alot of time when my daughter's is working and i feel like I get a lot for my money i will have to go back for maybe milk and bread i freeze most of the bread and milk and still have to go back my gallon of milk is .95 cents and eggs,79 cents i stock up, I'm in love with my Aldi's i live in South Carolina TFS
Wow wish my milk was that cheap my grandson loves his milk I live n Cali $4 a gallon
Aldi Is the bomb in the greatest place to get food on a budget
Something about hauls is just so therapeutic, I love it! By the way your skin is looking so bomb girl!
Thanks girl!😘😘😘
I love aldi. It’s just my husband and I now. I spend about $300 a month on food, cleaning and household supplies for both of us.

I love Aldi...the coconut 🥥 cookies are delicious. Gia, their brands aren’t knock offs, it’s called private label. Lol
I second that. Many of the "store brand" items that we've bought are exactly the same as the name brand; I would bet money the cereals are private labeled. Some Aldi brand items I just prefer. The soda waters are the best deal and are better.
We go to Aldi first before I go anywhere else.
Their canned goods are everything
I personally don't like walmart produce that much either. Aldi is my fav tho
Yes the cookies taste like girl scout cookies i always buy them when i go, so good
I love shopping at Aldi. My daughter likes to eat every hour it seems like. Then have the nerve to lose weight every holiday break.😤
Sounds like my 6 '2" 200lb. lineman of a son. Can't keep food in the house.
I have shopped at Aldis for about 30 years. I started with stockups of canned goods and paper products. Little by little, I expanded my sh opping until I do practically all of my hopping at Aldi. There are some items I have yet to try so I am interested in your hauls. Thank you for taking us along.
If u don’t like it, 1. They will refund you and 2. Replace it so you can’t go wrong! Aldi is the bomb! Jasmine rice is a steal ttere😁
We only get there OJ at aldi! The kids like the one with mango or pineapple juice 😁
Best whipping cream!
Aldi is my favorite place to shop and I especially love their fruit...have you ever bought some grapes and when you bite one it pops they be so crisp
I’m glad you love Aldi!!! Ive been shopping there since 2010. You be stressing me out spending all that money at Cisco sis 😭.
I love Aldi’s & Walmart grocery pickup...they help me save so much money on my grocery budget.
Those milk chocolate sea salt caramels are good but the dark chocolate versions are DANGEROUS!!! I get them every year at Christmas and they are gone by New Year's! I eat them for breakfast with my coffee, no lie. GET IT GIRL!!!
They looked delish!
Yeah the dark chocolate ones are crazy good and I always prefer milk chocolate.
I don’t eat meat however my guys love the Trader Joe’s orange chicken over Costco even though you get more at Costco. I’ve had great success with Aldis produce but you must use it quickly it doesn’t have a long shelf life.
Try Kombucha! Its like a tangy soda. Also, the taste of fruit is all dependent on the season. Strawberries have 2 natural growing seasons throughout America.

Also fruit coming from Mexico and other countries can (not always) lack flavor because of how early they are picked and how long it takes to ship to you
The heavy whipping cream is great I buy it every time I go to aldi's
The thin mints taste like the Girl Scout cookies as well. They also have another one like Girl’s Scouts but I am blanking on the name.
Mrs. Crystal Tag a longs. Chocolate and peanut butter.
I think they have their brand of Samoa’s too.
I love kombucha!! It does taste carbonated like soda but it has more of a tart taste than sweet. You should try it! 😊
I use their heavy whipping cream on keto! Love it. We always start our groceries at aldi and go from there :)
For me, I enjoy shopping away from walmart. My shopping experience is relaxing. Walmart's enviroment is stressful.
Those barbecue chips are bomb! They're sweet
We love their Oreos, fudge stripes and peanut butter patties. I never see the keto bread either but another UA-cam’s said they keep it in the freezer and that you have to ask for it. Produce seems to go bad more quickly for me at Aldi. Eat it fast and it’s fine. We love their chips too
The Trader Joe’s orange chicken is way better. I have to buy two bags and we make a ton of white rice and it’s so yummy!
My kids LOVE the Great Value BBQ chips from Walmart! They prefer them over the Lays brand. I get the family size bag for 2.12. We are a family of 5 and spend about 500-600 a month on groceries. I do all our grocery shopping on the Walmart grocery app, then we do the free pick up.
Trader joe vitamins are amazing. I will say that! I’ve tried many many vitamins and I have an autoimmune disease and I’m happy with Trader Joe’s.
Olive oil is cheaper at Aldi!

Two brothers owns trader Joe's and aldis
Sherri Exley aldi and Lidl are also from the same brothers....I am from Belgium and last time I went I saw some products from trader Joe that I only know from UA-cam but ofcourse I had to try it and it was great so I hope to find more new stuff next week 🤪😉☺️

Maya Bailey oh ok that is very interesting, thank you very much for the info 😘
Ialso go to Aldi's before I go anywhere else. The heavy cream is really good just get two pints. It will be a great savi gs. As alot of other treasures there. Tey the pork chops they are the bomb! Trust me fry them up they are like butter!!!
My girls are the same, they eat all day it feels like when they are home 🤣 I love Aldi !
We spend about $400 for a family of three. We buy mostly organic and eat vegan.
Aldi is the spot if you’re keto. I wish the one by me had the keto bread tho. The produce isn’t good imo. But everything especially snacks for the kids 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I love shopping at Aldi’s. Their prices are awesome. Those Girl Scout cookies dupes are yummy. So good and so cheap. 😋
Is that a thing I heard several people say they made there dressing with jiffy. I’ve only ever had it with scratch cornbread
I always make mine with homemade buttermilk cornbread but this year I used Jiffy. I did not know Jiffy mix had sugar in it so it was like sweet cornbread. I still used it and my dressing tasted off. Will NEVER do that again!
LifeWithTLC we love jiffy in our dressing. It makes the dressing sweet. No need for cranberry sauce.
Yeah I don’t think I could do sweet dressing I’d rather have the cranberry sauce. But to each his own my taste is different because I’m also the only one in my family that enjoys sushi 🍣 so when I eat it I get the same reaction I’m giving now at home 😂
Jasmine rice at Costco is a great buy and so good 🙋🏼♀️🙌🏼
The stores are owned by two brothers that,s why pricing and products are sometimes the same
I love Aldi. The orange juice with mango is so good!
i just found your channel today and am hooked, we dont even have aldi in el paso lol but we are moving to florida next year and i saw they have this store so im doing my research like a crazy person a year early
I wish we had an Aldis, I hear so many great things 😭 I'm jealous
Great recipes with the Oyster crackers....."Ranch Oyster Crackers". Toss them in oil with dry ranch dressing mix....delicious! They're addictive.
Aldi had the lowest price on Kerry Gold Butter and recently they have their own brand of Irish Butter and so many say it's made by Kerry Gold. I swear they taste exactly the same. Best butter ever! Love the thin mint cookies and the vanilla coffee creamer. It has real milk and cream in the ingredients. The Who Needs the Bagel seasoning is so good.

great store great prices, but i couldn't be arsed queuing around the store with only one check out open. i go to tesco and get served with out delay
We have a household of 4 and we try to spend $125 or less a week. It’s been working but ONLY bc I have a separate debit card. I typically lose all self control in the grocery store.
That Lactose Free Milk, taste just like the Lactaid Milk! I love it and it's so much cheaper!
You are a very hands on shopper! Ha ha, you touch everything...even if you don't get it!
Jia,
The Aldis Sweet Hawaiian Rolls taste just like Hawaiian rolls.
Also the BBQ chips are pretty great too.
Also the have this limited edition Apple strudel bread excellent too.
One reason for the orange juice price hike is that the orange groves are being attacked by a particular pest that devastates the trees and can only be erraticated by burning. Thus, the groves are dwindling.
I LOVE ALDI!!
The amount of time you spent picking cookies out 🤣🤣🤣💜💜💜

Christal Williams i love kombucha but I avoid it when Im keto.
mz Kaye that’s why I’ve avoided Keto. It’s just too restrictive; I gota pretty much avoid most of what I love...lol. Ive had sucess going vegan (as far as weight loss) and I do wonder how a Keto diet would fair in comparison.
did your hubby like the oreo wannabes lol I'm curious cause my brother loves Oreos to
Ok yes the soups are awesome, the chips are awesome, my husband is a bbq chip snob and LOVED the Aldi version. I only get the produce if I'm going to use it the same day or next day though, it's all subject to expire pretty soon after you buy it. The frozen pizzas are good and so are the fresh ones.

I don’t get produce from Walmart either. Kroger’s is great 👍 Aldi strawberries 🍓 are also good
Absolutely LOVE ALDI!! Such great quality products ! And that seasonal aisle (random items) ... OMG.. the best!! Yes , My kids eat non stop too when thy are home. I have 2 teens so so much food!! I do manage somewhat to stay on a budget though .
I just bought a huge container of blueberries from Walmart and they taste fine. The produce is hit or miss but generally not too bad.
Hubby and I, all organic, $300 per month. Shocking, but we feel soooooooooooooo much better. Off all our meds now---Hooray. So well worth it.
I recently fell in love with Aldi's. Had never been there till I retired. I could kick myself now for not going sooner. The knock-off cookies are fan-damn-tastic. I keep the "thin mints" in the freezer all the time.i love the breads and different milks. Gotta be careful with the produce though. I average $10-20 week. Just me.
And the organic strawberry preserves really rock.
Exactly...I spend $33.50 a week for two adults.
The chocolate sticks are so expensive in the US! I live in Germany and go to Aldi regularly. The same is about 1,50$ (1,29€) here. So it’s $ 0,80 more
You seem to buy a lot of processed foods. You may want to check the long list of ingredients for salt and also MSG(yeast extract/yeast flavoring and 40 other names for this flavor enhancer) for processed foods you really crave.
Merry Christmas! I love Aldi... So why don't I shop there more? Hmmm I see a change coming in my future. As to Aldi's quality.. the only canned goods I've not been happy with are green beans. I've not tried their whipping cream but i do know that some off-brands of 1/2 & 1/2 tend to be more watery than others. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the whipping cream. I roll up our living room throw blankets and store them in those canvas laundry baskets. perfect storage and helps keep them from being all over the room - and no one can trip in them hanging off the edge of the sofa. ;-)
Girl we just got an Aldi where I live at and I love it. I always get my produce and fruits from there and it’s always been fresh. So far no issues.
The have pretzel bites filled with pb if your kiddo love them. The grapes and strawberries are good.
FYI Trader Joe's and ALDI is owned by a German company called Albrecht Discounts, ALDI is a discount grocery chain that started in Germany in 1948 so same owner. Thanks for sharing.
I thought they were brothers. They branched off and made two different stores
Those bbq chips are the best! They are huge and full of flavor. Also the closed to Oreos that you can get out of any store.
We go grocery shopping twice a week, and spend between 50 to 100 euro per time (depends on what we need, and what's available), for 3 people. We are Aldi & Lidl shoppers (Belgium).
$50 per week but it's just me. I shop at Kroger, I think I'll try Aldi. I love Trader Joe's but it's across town plus it's tiny and always so crowded. I spend too much at Trader Joe's too because of all the specialty items.
I have family of 5 and spend about 500 a month on groceries. Aldi is awesome for alot of things for my fruit I go to Kroger though. Sadly I don't have any Trader Joe's close by.
I guessed 45! Lol i love aldi.
We try to do 100pp pm. But we are a vegan & vegetarian family of 5...ys 2 large dogs a cat and the 2yr in diapers . I can't figure it out! Some say to include household items ....
Where is your Aldi? Mine in the DC area doesn't have all the goodies like some other ones! Love your Aldi video!
AYE! 20 DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS! NICE VIDEO!❤💚🎅🏼
I also have an Erin Condren bag I keep in my purse. 😂. It wads up so nicely and doesn't take much space.
My husband and I spend around $100 a week for everything including household stuff (and anything we need for our 2 month old).
I bought a young turkey it just means small lol not the size that looks like it will get up and walk off way too big lol but yea I liked the young turkey it cooked up in less than a millennium lol
I have never shopped at Aldi before. Maybe I will give it a try.
The only thing I'm not crazy about at Aldi is their ranch. I prefer Walmart brand but everything else is tasty, in my house anyway.
Have you tried the butter milk ranch its good ..
I have buttermilk ranch that tastes spot ON to Hidden Valley and it's HUGE from Aldi . Lol
I like the haul but I try to look for low sugar or sugar free options.Parmesan crisps are great!
Oh girl you have to join the Facebook Aldi Aisle of shame group!! It’s so fun lol
I love Aldi, too! Ours has really good produce both in prices and flavor. Occasionally it will go bad quickly, but not very often. Also, I love the cream and other dairy products, I hope yours were good! And then the Aldi random aisle, it’s the best!
We budget $400/month for our family of 4 (we also have a baby but he doesn’t eat much solid food yet). We shop mostly at Aldi but get our meat at Wegmans because their prices are better and we can get the huge family packs.
Oh my kids eat so much at home too!
We loooove Aldi! And I now love your channel too! 💕
I haven't shopped at Aldi in awhile because of how much I love their snacks. I can't resist buying the german chocolate and I would always end up spending half my grocery budget on cookies and snacks rather than actual food. Those girl scout cookies? I've tried their version of tagalongs and samoas and I like them both better than girl scout cookies at a 1/3 of the price and available all year around (I still definitely support my local troop and give them money every year though). I like their breakfast bars except for the Elevation ones. Their knock off Nutri-grain bars and knock off Nature Valley Sweet and Salty cashew bars are pretty decent and very inexpensive (I can taste a difference, but it's not enough for me to care most of the time considering the price difference). I would have gone ahead and bought the heavy cream - I like Aldi yogurt well enough and it's the same brand that does the yogurt. I can be kinda picky about their dairy stuff (I don't like Aldi cheese, mostly). Produce for me is hit and miss - A lot of times I think their produce tastes better but imo their produce doesn't last. I don't buy produce there I can't eat in 2-3 days. I still find the best deals here for that at the roadside stands/farmers markets. Tastes excellent and tends to actually last.
Also, if you love and go through a decent amount of jasmine rice? Go buy it at an Asian grocery store. You'll have to buy 10-20 pounds of it, but you're never going to get a good price for rice at a regular grocery store.
I've realized now looking at how much other people pay for food that the $50 a week I normally do might be too much. So these days I'm trying to get down to $30 a week. Been doing good the last few weeks but looking at my shelves this week looks like I definitely need to do a pantry restock so I am probably going to go over that this next time. Got lucky and didn't have to go at all this week. Being a single girl who goes over to Dad's for thanksgiving has its perks!
Aldi rocks!
Hi Jia those knock off Girl Scott cookies are soooooo good your family will not regret it. We spend in our household about 200 to 250 per month.
We spend about $400 a month on groceries. There's 5 of us but my husband is usually out of town. We shop a lot at Aldi and get some things at HEB
Got that! When they’re home, they eat all day!
I like shopping at Aldi much more than I used to, but I haven’t been able to completely cut Walmart. Their selection is still better for the other items I buy, but I like buying all my outer isle stuff (sprouted bread, produce, dairy, I like Aldis Never Any brand, etc) from Aldi. I also struggle with not filling my kitchen with a ton of snacks and junk food, so that money still goes out the door with my snack-attack husband and child 😏
Our strawberries and grapes and apples and pears and blueberries and bananas...yum. Barbecue chips Joseph loves.
Jiffy stuffing...LOL!!!!!!
I have to agree with your mom, I've never gotten good produce from Walmart. I've never tried Aldi, so I can't speak to them. Depending on what I need, I either buy from roadside stands or go to Publix. There is a good Farmer's Market nearby, but the prices are a bit high for my tastes.
I’ve been to Aldo once. It reminded me of an OLD military commissary. The selection was so-so, the store was cramped, and a warning sign about shopping baskets and bags would have been nice. Granted, I’m basing my comments on the one location in the area. As for your girls eating you out of home, they all go through that. I seemed to be at the supermarket every other day when my daughter went through that stage. I can’t figure out how we survived. And we have one child. People with more than one child must feel like they are on the verge of bankruptcy.
