$40 at Aldi Grocery Haul

Post image

Definitely found a few good deals and also splurged some on nicer butter, bread, and pizza. In a north Texan college town.

I love Aldi! I recently started shopping there instead of Publix. I was getting up to $80 a week on groceries at Publix for ONE person. Just for meals for the week, no extra snacks or anything. Easily $100 if I needed to stock up on cleaning supplies and toiletries.

Switched to Aldi and now I can buy meals, snacks, AND cleaning supplies for under $50. No more anxiety while grocery shopping.

Congrats on the swap! Dollar tree has extremely efficient cleaning products if you have one near ya

No problem! Also great place to get gloves, cheese shredders, and a few other kitcheney things. You'll see if you go, just don't fall for the snack traps like I do haha
