Default Re: Do you shop Aldi's?

I do. I combine it with another trip I take monthly. But, that trip I only make August thru March. After that I have to drive about 45 miles 1 way to get there. But, when I go, I spend about 200 or more. It fills up the suburban-about 3-5 carts full. I get stuff I can't buy locally (frozen whole chickens-all the ones here are fresh and run around $8-$10 each), I also get frozen dinners for about 88 cents each (kids lunchs-often can't pack them one for that), powered milk, all my baking ingredents, frozen juice, spices, canned goods by the case...stock up items. When I buy that much, it more than pays for my trip.
