Aldi deals for the week of 2/26!

aldi-us-logo

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:

Ripe Avocados – $.33 each

Roma Tomatoes – $.49/lb.

Multi Colored Peppers (3 pack) – $1.29

Grapefruit – $.25 each

Bananas – $.39/lb.

Cantaloupe – $.99 each

Fresh Family Pack Chicken Breasts – $1.59/lb.

Roseland Fresh Half Pork Lion – $2.79/lb.

Casa Mamita Taquitos – $3.99

Casa Mamita Taco Shells – $.99

Casa Mamita Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies – $.59

Dakota Pride Black Beans – $.59

Reading Glasses with Case – $2.99

Gardenline Rose Bush – $4.99

LEGO books only $1.09 each!
