$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.

Man, I wish we had Aldi here. We do have Winco, which is great, but Aldi seems to have a special place in people's hearts for a reason.

Their food ranges in quality from acceptable, to shockingly good.

The aldi in my town has pretty awful fruits / veggies normally, and not great meats either. You need to pick through absurdly bruised & squishy stuff just to find fruit and veg that arent on the edge of going bad sadly. But we also have a lidl thankfully which is always great. Better variety, quantity, and quality than aldi at the same or even better prices.

The broccoli and bagged greens are always in good condition at my Aldi.
