    Really love aldi but there prices are pretty much the same as Walmart now so I stopped shopping there as much as I was. I always stop there first to check out what they have but everything is just so expensive everywhere

    What you are calling the expiratiin dates are also known as the sell by dates to get them off of store shelves. The only time I "use" them as suggested expiration dates is for dairy or fresh meat products. If you keep those in a super cold fridge or in freezee you can go past those dates as well.

    If you use your eyes & nose you will be able to judge if it's still good ir not.

    Did my yearly haul yesterday, we are a family of 2 and I spent at Aldi's $200.00. Combine with all stores it was $1000. We make our own tomato based condiments so what I bought yesterday was more back up items, cleaning/laundry/hygiene items. I'm good for a year now with the exception of milk that we still buy every 2-weeks and get that at Kwik Trip

    I feel that if I do a large haul 1 time a year, I spend less and I am not at the store weekly or biweekly

    My hubby's family came over for a fish fry and they were all impressed with just how much stockpile I have in the space of 3 closes closets! When my youngest daughter bought her first house, we planted an apple tree. 8 years later, the apples are the sweetest ever! Love Aldi!

    Aldi is my favorite store. I wish I liked organic, but I just don't. I also stock up on can goods. We also have a local discount store called Byler's. I but most of my condiments and frozen foods from them.

    Impressive! We shop at Aldi weekly…but often spend $150/wk plus on a family of 3. With our farmers market in full swing, we are getting what we can while its in season. I batch prep veggies to keep in the freezer, and buy a little meat at the farmers market too. Really cuts down on grocery trips.😊

    I wouldn’t buy Aldi I find I don’t like them I can’t do a weeks shopping the variety at Aldi is very poor not much. Between brands so I only shop at one supermarket as they mark down stuff every day if it’s meat. Fruit what ever the other day I got 260 grams baby carrots 25 cents

    You may already be aware of this but the 'expiration date' isn't really an expiration date. The date is a 'best by' date. The item doesn't go bad on that date it is just a better quality up to that date.
