Aldi Price Check and Produce Picks - Week of 9/11/11

September 11 , 2011

Woo Hoo!  Cauliflower for $0.99 a head.  The store I shop was out last night, but the manager said they had a truck coming in overnight.  At this price, they will go fast.

Every week, Aldi has 5 to 6 Produce Picks that are priced lower than you what you will ever see elsewhere.  If you are close to an Aldi, it worth the time to stop in to pick some up. 

Aldi now has their local ads online.   The prices shown are from the Holly Hills store in St Louis.  Prices and availability vary a bit between stores.

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
