Aldi deals for the week of 10/15!

October 18, 2014 by melinda-ann Leave a Comment

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 (they are $.06)

Aldi is now in Houston and these deals are based on that ad. It is 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.

Here are some of the Aldi’s highlights for the week:

Friendly Farms Milk – $1.99

Goldhen Eggs – $1.19

Little Salad Bar Italian or Caesar Salad Kits – $.69

Yellow Onion – $.23/lb.

Zucchini – $.69/lb.

White or Crimini Mushrooms (8 oz.) – $.69

Baby Carrots – $.69/lb.

Green Peppers (3-4 per package) – $.69

Anaheim or Poblano Peppers (8 oz.) – $.49

Avocados – $.39 each

Countryside Creamery Butter Quarters (16 oz.) – $1.99
