Aldi deals for the week of 3/18-3/24

Thanks to Coupon Clippin Daddy for this week’s deals.

If you are new to shopping, at Aldi’s, here’s their coupon policy: or lack there-of since they don’t actually take coupons!

  • Aldi’s does not take coupons of any kind.
  • At Aldi’s, you will have to bag your own groceries and pay a quarter to get a cart. The quarter is reimbursed when the cart is returned.
  • You’ll need to bring in your own reusable grocery bags or you’ll have to purchase them in the store.

Here are some of the Aldi’s highlights for the week:  remember to check out Coupon Clippin’ Daddy for the rest of the deals!  It’s hard to judge what a “good deal” is since cost of living varies so much in various parts of the country, but these are all “good deals” by my standards in a low to moderate cost of living area

Cooking With Kids Thursday: Bunny Bait

This stuff is delicious!  We made a version of this popcorn for Valentine’s Day for my daughter to hand-out at preschool and it was a hit.  We had lots of requests for the recipe.  My kids also really enjoyed making it.  There is lots of stirring and pouring for the little ones to do.  Thanks Sing for Your Supper!

Here’s what you need to make this:

  • 1 bag popcorn, popped (I used Tender White)
  • 6 oz. white chocolate candy coating
  • 1 bag Easter M&Ms
  • pretzel sticks, broken into small pieces
  • colorful sprinkles, if desired

Here’s how to make it -> Bunny Bait Tutorial
