We have switched to Aldi recently and probably spend $200-250 a week for family of 3. I love those mini naan breads, toasted and then add chicken salad from Aldi. You can add sliced cheese too, kind of like a chicken salad melt. So good!
I love a good ole fridge tour! It's just me & my husband (we do have 4 cats, 0 human kids), and our weekly groceries range from $65-$90 per week. I try to get as much as possible on sale, but if there's something we want, we grab it. My favorite Aldi item is their cinnamon sweet rolls. They are huge, so delectable, and the right amount of sweet for us. Totally unhealthy, but we only shop at Aldi maybe once a month.
Love Aldi. Have saved so much money and got more for my budget since going back to them almost a year ago. My only weakness is the aisle of shame can't walk by without looking for picking up something 🤣🤣🤣. Favorite thing is chips, salsa, fruit (water melon slices), chicken strips, wanna a be chick flia, pizza, bake goods and chocolate chip bread 😊. Those sea salt caramel are so good I have to buy two of them and the peanut butter cups those are good
We shop Aldi but only get a few things for the kids for their school lunches. They are picky eaters. We do split a cow with family and usually lasts us over a year. We dont like aldi meats except the frozen fish. We mostly have fresh foods. Very little boxed/prepackaged items. There are so many harsh chemicals in the prepackaged foods it is unreal. We keep items that have 3 ingredigents or less. I cant have gluten or breads, rice, pastas due to those foods being inflammatory foods. I am so glad i cut those out 6 months ago as i feel so much better. Vacations are the best.
A lot of ppl I know buy the red bag chicken. If it comes up in conversation I always suggest they try the green bag. Tried the red bag once and almost all the breading fell off.
Love Aldi! We have a budget of around £400 a month for food. Around $500. Two adults and an autistic boy. The price of food has gone up around 25% in the UK over the last couple of years. We do a weekly shop at a dupermarket and I try to support local businesses like butchers and bakers. Love to see your hauls Lauren. ❤
You got a great amount of meat for the money you spent. I love getting produce, spices, cheese, cranberry chicken salad, Italian sausage raviolis, red bag chicken, (taste like Chic-Fil-A) smoked Turkey, deli ham, ice coffee, creamer, canned vegetables, chocolate peanut butter cookies (taste better than Girl Scouts) So much good stuff from there.
We typically love Aldi‘s as well. They have so many good fines as long as they are fully stocked and fresh much cheaper than the grocery store you are correct. will be great when we go on vacation sometimes cost-effectively depends
An Aldi opened in Chandler AZ about 30mins from me. I went twice…it was underwhelming 😢 I shop Fry’s/Walfart/Costco spending ~$1k monthly for 5 people.
Lol those sea salt caramels...👌. I also go there just for the strung cheese cuz its 1.50 less than our bigger cheapest grocery store and my 6 year old eats multiples a day lol
Hey Lauren 😊 I'm in Australia. Aldi is generally cheaper than our 2 big supermarkets (Coles and Woolworths). 3 of our 5 adult kids are still at home and we all have special dietary requirements. So fun! 😋 I usually try to get some staples at Aldi, then shop the specials at the other stores. We spend $350 - $400 Aussie dollars a fortnight on groceries, but that includes stockpiling a few of the specials each week.
I previously thought nothing could compete with their spinach dip, but the dill dip is also outstanding- use it on sandwiches, with fish, to make tuna salad, instead of butter on vegetables, everything.
We shop in Aldi here in England every week but £60 to £80 is our max spend. There are 2 of us and we're on pension so have to watch the pennies. We also go to home bargains or BnM for certain items...
I've just recently started going to Aldi and I love it!! Something I just tried and love is the Cookie Thins in Key Lime flavor...delicious! I also always get a few packs of their prosciutto because it is cheaper per pack than any other store and good quality!
I live here in the UK and I love Aldi. We have a weekly groceries budget of £50 for the two of us as I have food allergies. Aldi has been the best place for us to shop as you can get so much for your money. My favourite thing from Aldi is their fruit
My favorite thing from Aldi is the Kitchen Sink cookie but, girllllll they get me in trouble! I have zero self control when it comes to them so, I have to steer clear of the little bakery section. 😂 Love you! Love your content! You look amazing! Keep doing what you're doing girlfraan😊❤❤❤
I love their sourdough bread!! Toast is my favorite food now and caramel rice cakes with peanut butter. I’m trying to lose 10 pounds and it’s been so hard this time. I’m back on prednisone which makes me hungry and crave sweets.
Hey Lauren I am sorry I have been watching your vlogs amd I had been busy and I am just watching this vlog today and I am glad u guys are doing good and where I live is very hot and I am not able to handle this heat wave and I am home where it's cooler and I hope u guys have good weather at your end and u are welcome to write back when u can okay . 😃
We typically shop Walmart even though we have Aldi. Every time I've tried Aldi it's always over picked and empty shelves, no matter the time of day and it's only been 1 cashier and some self check outs with no one else on the floor. For a family of 6 (2 adults, 1 teen, 1 pre-teen on the spectrum picky eater, and 2 toddlers) we typically spend $170 a week and a monthly Sam's run that's ~$500. However, that includes all the non-food items that I know a lot of people don't count as "groceries" like TP, Paper towel, laundry pods, diapers, etc.
We have Aldi here in the UK too it'sa great place I go sometimes but I can't buy too much at once as I have a Guide Dog and can't carry too much and the store is 2 bus rides away.
Love Aldies. But I’ve been shopping at Sam’s club more. The number one thing I get from Aldies is turkey sticks and turkey pepperoni. We don’t eat pork so that is so helpful. I used to get half and half from Aldies but it’s cheaper at Sam’s.
Family of seven .we spend around 350-375 a week between Sam’s and Walmart but I’ve recently tried another method of buying groceries and have cut our bill to 275 -300a week. I remember before covid when that was what we spent every two weeks 😌
Your videos are such an inspiration. Thank you so much for continuously putting out information and helpful tips and I love your grocery hauls!!They are amazing. I’m currently on semaglutide I was definitely on the fence about it, but I’m so happy that I did try it out however, after about the fourth week, it stopped working and my doctor has upped my dose about three times and there’s no results so far but I’m not giving up! Through your videos you show us that consistency is key and I am grateful😊😊
