I’ve been a huge fan of Aldi for years, I love them!  They have fabulous prices and their stores are laid out well so you can get in and get out without much hassle.  Check out our Aldi deals of the week every week!

Check out this super cute plastic food that I was able to score at Aldi!  I had told a friend of mine that I had bought my daughter a kitchen and I asked her if she knew where I could find some plastic food to go along with it.  I got a wooden kitchen so I wanted plastic food to avoid a very noisy play time.  The next day she called me from Aldi excited that she had found an 80 piece set for less than $10!  I called my Mom to see if she wanted to buy this for my little one for Christmas and she jumped at the chance.  She picked up the set at the Aldi near her and she said that she couldn’t help but buy the additional pots and pans set with spatulas, spoons, and a mini burner for around $5.  Isn’t that awesome?  The friend who originally told me about the plastic food ended up buying a wooden kitchen from Aldi and she said that her daughter had a blast putting it together herself (she bought it for another little girl).

Not only is Aldi great for gifts, and every day grocery savings, but it’s the perfect place to buy your holiday food at a discount.  For every occasion that we buy a turkey or ham we go to Aldi.  They always have a good supply with a wide range of sizes available.  My family bought 16 turkeys to donate to families this Christmas and being the bargain shopper I am, I made sure Aldi was the lowest price and of course it was!

The above picture is a chicken purchased at Aldi.  Doesn’t it look yummy?  That image comes from a post that my husband and I are working on together.  You should expect the full post on how to spatchcock a chicken {fancy words for the specific way you cut it} and how you grill a whole chicken soon.  It will probably be ready later this week.

I recommend shopping at Aldi if you’re looking to save money on groceries.  Their website is full of handy information as well.  You can use it to make shopping lists, check out their Suggested Shopping Items and their Holiday Entertaining Tips!

ALDI is one of my favorite money saving resources.  I save so much money from just buying my staples there.  Milk, bread, eggs, cereal, pasta, fruit and vegetables are so much cheaper!  Plus, they also have those little goodies that are bad for you at significantly lower prices as well.  You know what I’m talking about.  Fruit roll ups, gummies, cookies, pies, etc.  Come on, you know you buy them too!

ALDI is known for its premium exclusive brands.  They offer more than 1,400 of the most frequently purchased grocery items for up to *50 percent* less than traditional supermarkets. During this holiday season, ALDI also carry an additional lineup of more than 100 seasonal items at unbeatable prices, including everything from appetizers to main courses, to side dishes and desserts.

ALDI is carrying a small selection of quality kid’s toys right now!  This is a great place to grab gift for your own kids for Christmas or toys to donate to others.  My parents bought my little girl a large set of play food to go with her new kitchen that we bought her for Christmas.  The set contained over 80 pieces and was less than $10.  What a deal!

Check out the ALDI website for an online recipe booklet that features a variety of holiday recipes straight from the ALDI Test Kitchen. There you’ll find a variety of meals and treats – plus you can search by categories like appetizers or desserts, and create your shopping list.  Go here to find an ALDI location near you.
