Aldi Foods is a smaller grocery store that carries a lot of their own private label food products at a much lower cost than the similar name brand products (please note: prices may vary by state/location). They sometimes will also carry brand name products. You will find toiletry supplies, paper towels, paper plates, pet food, and some non-food items also. Around Christmas time they will have a large assortment of toys at a lower cost than most stores, including Walmart. Aldi Foods carries a low-fat variety of items labeled "Fit & Active".

What are the best (in my opinion) food bargains at Aldi Foods?

1.Canned foods such as soup, fruit, and vegetables are very inexpensive. At my local Aldi, a can of ready-to-serve soup is only $1.26 in comparison with brand-name soups being at least $1.00 more at the "regular" supermarket. Their soup comes in chicken noodle, clam chowder, bean, and vegetable. They also have regular canned condensed soup for only $.35 a can. A can of mandarin oranges costs me $.70 at the grocery store, but at Aldi, it is only $.35. They have a wide variety of canned vegetables for less than $.50.

2.Baking supplies are a great deal at Aldi. Butter is only $1.99 every day, and milk is the lowest you can find it anywhere locally. Real vanilla extract is less than half the price it will cost you elsewhere. They carry almost every standard baking need, and add more items around the holidays each year.
