Back In Town And Already Finding Deals At Aldi
It's been over a week since you guys have heard from me, and that is because we were out of town. Now I brought my laptop with me on the trip, but once we got there, I decided not to use it. In fact, I never even took it out of the bag and turned it on! And it felt fabulous! ;)
But now I'm back, and trying to get back into the swing of things and plan for the new year (I'll share some of that a bit later).
We got home around 3pm yesterday, unpacked the van, discovered our betta fish was dead, tried to do laundry only to remember that I was completely OUT of laundry detergent, grabbed my pre-written list of things I was not shopping for before we left, and headed out to Aldi.
We had run out of a lot of things, in fact our fridge was nearly empty! Were it not for my dad and his chickens and citrus trees (he sent us back with eggs and oranges) I think it would have only contained a single slice of cheese (of which I forgot to purchase more), and half a tub of margarine, and also some aging onions.
So off I went, and as usual I found a couple of things that were not on my list that I simply could not pass up.
#1: Ham.
All of their hams were $3 off, making this one that I brought home just $6.15.
We will slice some, and dice some, use some for sandwiches, use some for noodle salads, and freeze the rest.
#2: Stuffing.
Herb stuffing to be exact. It's my favorite of their stuffing flavors, and it is a seasonal item so they only sale it twice a year during the winter holidays and Easter. My husband bought 4 boxes before we left when he saw it marked down for $0.69, but when I went in yesterday, it was marked down even farther...just $0.25 a box!
I bought 8.
They also had lots of their toys and candies reduced in price, so be sure to look all around for seasonal markdowns next time you are in Aldi, or perhaps hurry over before they are all gone! Read more...
