    I just went grocery shopping. We went to a regular store for about 10 items to make a homemade soup, and then went to Aldi for the rest. The 10 items cost the same as all of the stuff we got at Aldi

      It’s regrettable that I can’t complete my shopping at Aldi, and I’m not impressed with certain products, but the $4 Belgian chocolates I bought on a whim are divine. Also I got a gallon of milk there for $2.51, but the almond and oat milk were more than that for a half gallon. Also regrettable because I need to lay off the milk.

        We managed to make it work because my fiancee hates shopping around. The prices everywhere else are insane, so we completely changed our regular meal rotation to fit what Aldi sells. I totally agree though, some of their items aren’t very good and others are still too expensive

          I too have adjusted my meals when I’m able to make an Aldi’s run. Agree with the rest, too.
