Grocery Price Comparison List 3/18 - Aldi, Walmart, Target and Publix Prices

I have not been able to make it to Aldi this week, as we just got our car back yesterday. My store did have the red potatoes on sale at $1.29 though, and I sure would have loved to pick up these cheap potatoes. I would also have loved to pick up cheap cabbage, and I hope some of you were able to pick up some great produce deals at Aldi. Thankfully I stocked up on whole wheat bread and produce last Saturday, as the whole wheat price of $1.19 cannot be beat. Before Aldi stores came to South Florida, I bought two loaves of whole wheat bread at Publix each week at $1.69 each, which means that by buying Aldi's whole wheat bread, I am saving $1 each week....almost enough to buy 3 loaves of bread for the price of two at Publix.

The above grocery price comparison list between Aldi, Publix, Target (sale prices start 3/13) and Walmart was last updated on 3/18/2011. If you need a newer edition go to the Aldi Price Comparison List tab.

You can find a price comparison list between Aldi and Save A Lot here.

The grocery price comparison list is created based on South Florida prices, and you might find regional price differences. South Florida prices are usually a bit higher than in the rest of the country, so you will likely find better prices at your local store. It is a constant work in progress, and if there is any specific products you would like to see included, let me know in the comment area.

I do my best to keep up with the price changes, but if I miss something please feel free to let me know. Aldi price changes are ongoing, but most change on Sundays and Wednesdays. Target and Walmart prices change on Sundays and Publix prices change on Thursdays....I try my best to keep the price list updated throughout the week.

If you found a great Aldi price I would love to hear about it...

  1. This week, our red potatoes (5 lb. bag), in Madison, WI were an unbelievable $0.99! :-)
