These are all regular prices on these items.


Birmingham Bargain Mom has a list of sale prices for Thanksgiving essentials that are good through Wednesday 11/24.

My favorite Aldi finds

I've told you about Aldi stores and I really enjoy shopping there.  It's a great way to save money and stretch your budget.

About Aldi stores

I love Aldi stores! You can cut your grocery spending without ever clipping a coupon!

If you've never shopped at an Aldi before I would encourage you to check out their website (specifically their FAQ page) before you head out to your local store.
Shopping at Aldi is a little different. Here's some things to make note of:

• Make sure you have a quarter (so you can get a cart - you get it back when you return your cart)
• Bring your own bags (or you can purchase paper sacks or large, durable, reusable plastic bags - these are not Wal-mart bags. I've been using my Aldi bags for 3 years! )
• Aldi does not accept coupons, mainly because 95% of Aldi's products are their brand (they are like one big "store brand" store).
• They only accept cash and debit cards
• Be prepared to bag your own items at the sacking table. They will ring everything up and place it into another buggy at the end of the lane. After you pay you take it to the bagging area and bag them up yourself.
  

All these things are ways that Aldi cuts their overhead costs so they can pass the savings on to you.

If you live near an Aldi, I would encourage you to try it out! You'd be surprised at how much you could trim off your grocery bill!

Do you shop at Aldi?

I love Aldi! I haven't been in a while but was in the area of my closest Aldi store today so I stopped in because we desperately needed some basics - milk, eggs, bread - and snacks.

If you've never shopped Aldi, read my post about them here. You can also check out their website.

I was dissapointed to see that milk had gone up to $2.79/gallon but since "sale" price at the major grocers is $3.19...still a good deal. But I do miss it being $1.99!

Here's some of my other highlights:

Bananas - 39c/lb
Oatmeal Creme Pies (8 ct box) and Honey Buns (6 ct box) - 99c each

Applesauce cups (4pk) - 89c!!
Saltine Crackers - 89c
Hamburger & Hot Dog Buns (8ct) - 85c/each
Whole Grain White Bread - $1.29 (Enriched white bread is 79c but I prefer the whole grain)
Honey Wheat Bread - $1.19
Dozen Large Eggs - $1.39

Remember, Aldi doesn't take coupons. Most items are store brand. Take your own bags.

Aldi

I can't believe I haven't blogged about Aldi yet. I discovered Aldi years ago.

One of my favorite things about Aldi? Milk at Aldi is always $1.49/gallon. You can get two gallons at Aldi for what one costs you at another store! Two summers ago, when milk was nearly $5/gallon, Aldi had to go up to $1.99 and they had signs on their milk cases apologizing to their customers for the rise - but it was still a great deal!

Here's what I got:

1 Gallon Milk
about 2 lbs bananas (@ 39c/lb)
2 thin crust pepperoni pizzas ($1.99 each!)
2 cans green beans & 2 cans corn (49c each)
1 box whole wheat rigatoni ($1.09)
1 box Mac-N-Cheese (comparable to Kraft and only 35c!!)
1 box frozen cheese raviloi ($2.29)
1 box of 10 frozen fish fillets (comparable to Gorton's and only $2.99!)
8 hamburger buns (only 85c!!)
1 loaf of white sandwhich bread (79c!!!)
1 loaf of Cinnamon Raisin Bread (comparable to Nature's Own and only $1.99!)

Total for everything: $20.21!!!

If you have an Aldi in your area, I would encourage you to check it out. If you didn't want to clip coupons, but you wanted to save money on groceries, you could by switching to Aldi. I know that I could not get everything we needed from a trip to Aldi, but if you replace 75-80% of your shopping to Aldi, you could rack up some significant savings!

Just in my trip above, if I had been at another grocery store, I would have paid twice as much for milk, 50c more for bananas, $3-4 more for the fish fillets, $1 or more for the cinnamon raisin bread, and as much as $2 or more for each pizza. That's $10 or more just on 6 out of 15 items in my order!
