Back To Aldi Shopping - Come Share Your Savings


Last week a storm forced me to cut my shopping trip short, and that meant no ALDI shopping. I did not really need anything at ALDI though, but I sure was glad to return to the reasonable prices at ALDI this week. Two weeks ago I stocked up on cheap chicken at ALDI, so this week I ended up splurging on some expensive beef stew meat.

Chicken, Chicken, Chicken...Aldi Savings Linky - Come Share Your Shopping Trips



I am definitely going over budget this week, but when I saw that Aldi had some great chicken price cuts, I knew it was time to fill up the freezer. The price cuts are not huge, but in the long run it means great savings, and I ended up buying more than 17 lbs of chicken. I also picked up four lbs of chicken at Target for an even better price, and amazingly my small freezer was able to fit all 21 lbs of chicken....after some organizing.

The price advertised on the shelves did not include the Aldi chicken price cuts, but if you look at the individual packages you will see the price cut. 



My Aldi Chicken Deals:
3.15 lbs of bananas $1.39
Watermelon $3.99
2 lbs red onion $1.79
5 lbs red potatoes $1.39
Instant Oatmeal $1.49
1/2 Gallon Milk $2.19
Hot Dog Buns $0.79
Whole Wheat Bread $1.29
Crinkle Cut Potatoes $1.89
8.72 lbs of chicken drumsticks on sale at $0.99/lb = 8.63
6.14 lbs of chicken thighs on sale at $0.99/lb = $6.08
2.50 lbs of chicken tenders on sale at $2.29 = $5.73

Total out of pocket $36.74
Total saved $16.78 (compared to my regular grocery stores)





As a vegetarian I hate cutting up chicken, but it makes it so much easier. If I cut up the chicken, when I bring it home, it is much easier to make chicken curry for the guys in my life. I ended up splitting the 17 lbs of chicken into 15 dinners, which means I spent about $1.36 on meat per dinner. This very frugal price on chicken, will make room for a few luxury meals with beef or shrimp this month.

I would love to hear how you did on your shopping this week. You can link up below, or you can share your savings in the comments.

My Quickest Aldi Trip Ever - Saved $2! - Link Up At The Aldi Savings Linky


Today I was in and out of ALDI in a matter of a few minutes, because all I really needed was my youngest son's favorite oatmeal....he just cannot live without it. Thanks to price matching at Walmart, and a full pantry I really did not need to do a lot of shopping at ALDI though. Now, if ALDI had not been on my walking route, I'd probably just have skipped it. However, it was just a short walk, and the extra exercise did not hurt me.

Aldi eggs were actually cheap this week at $1.09 for a dozen, but I price matched Western Beef's $0.79 price at Walmart instead. 

I was hoping to finally get the grocery price comparison updated (you can see the latest Aldi price list here), but my middle son had field day at school, so I did not go shopping until afterwards. 

My ALDI Shopping Trip: 

Maple and Brown Sugar Oatmeal $1.49
Whole Wheat Bread $1.29
Colored Peppers $0.99

Total out of pocket $3.77
Total saved $2 compared to my regular grocery stores.


How much are eggs at your local Aldi store?

I would love to hear how you did...
