Why We Shop Aldi….

Some of our readers have asked, “Why Aldi when you can use coupons at the bigger grocery stores?”. Quite simply, one of the main reasons is for the meats. The meats are in many cases 35% – 50% less expensive than you might pay at a regular grocery store. When you have a family of 6 (4 boys) this can knock quite a bit off the grocery tab and of course in most cases there are no coupons for meats from the meat dept. Here is an example from the current weekly flier of some great deals and price comparisons for similiar cereals:

Frosted Flakes $3.26 – Millville Frosted Flakes $1.49 = Savings $1.59

Froot Loops $3.34 – Millville Fruit Rounds $1.49 = Savings $1.79

Reeses Puffs $3.13 – Millville Cocoa Peanut Butter $1.89 = Savings $1.24

Honey Smacks $3.80 – Millville  Frosted Wheat Puffs $1.89 = Savings $1.91

Cookie Crisp $3.25 – Millville Chocolate Chip Kookies $1.89 = Saving $1.36

Here is the best thing - these cereals taste awesome! I use to be a brand shopper. It took a little while for my wife to convince me to try it. Sadly, the kids were the same way. If you did a blind taste test you probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. The Millville brands are of phenomenal quality and taste. No, I don’t work for Aldi or Millville and we don’t get any $$’s from them either. Give Aldi a try, you won’t be disappointed. Mike.
