Aldi Price Check - Grapefruit and Oranges + More



February 13, 2011

After last week's great prices for fruit,  I had a hard time coming up with what might be advertised as the "Produce Picks" for this week.  I never get an Aldi ad at my house, so I head to Aldi on Sunday to check prices.  If you get an Aldi ad, I would be very interested in hearing what they consider to be the Produce Picks.  I didn't find much of anything at the bottom dollar price.

The prices shown are from the Holly Hills store in St Louis.  Prices and availability vary a bit between stores, but usually the Produce Picks will be the same price throughout the St Louis Metro area.

Red Indian River Grapefruit - .39 each
Avocado - .49 each
Navel Oranges, 4 lb. bag - $1.99

If you haven't shopped at Aldi, or it has been awhile:
1. Make sure you have a quarter to unlock a shopping cart. The carts are like luggage carts at the airport. You rent them for a quarter, and you get your quarter back when you return the cart.
2. Take your own bags. Aldi does not provide free bags for your groceries.
3. Aldis now accepts debit cards.
4. Aldis does not accept coupons

If you buy something at Aldi you are not please with, they have a double guarantee. If for any reason, you are not 100% satisfied with any product, they will replace the product AND refund your money. More info HERE.

  1. We devoured the grapes & blueberries I'd bought last Mon. I stopped in a 2nd time on Sat. evening to get more of both. So glad I did!

  2. Hi Kelly - I wish I would have thought to go back for more grapes. I was disappointed with this week's prices.

  3. Aldis is hit or miss. I have never seen 99 cent pineapples here until this week. So I snapped some up. Our produce prices have not gone up. It is amazing how just 2 hours away from STL makes that much of a difference. We stopped getting ads almost a year ago in the newspaper. I love your blog btw!

  4. Hi Anonymous - It isn't unusual to get pineapple for .99 here in St Louis. Not year round, but it isn't all that unusual.
