Aldi Food Stores Reviews

I had never heard of Aldi Foods until a few years ago when I started a new job and two of my cubemates were discussing the benefits of couponing.  Turns out that they were really into it for the great deals that can be had.  They kept mentioning this place called Aldi so I finally asked about it and stopped there on my way home that night and became an instant fan. — Aldi stores are small.  They're only about the size of a drugstore, if not smaller, but packed full of good quality items for a great value.  I can't do all of my grocery shopping there due to the… read full review »

I am so thankful for Aldi! There are a few things that are not so great (the boxed potatoes for instance), but for the most part, the quality for the price is great! Their meat, especially, is excellent quality for a low price. It has saved us SOOO much money on our grocery bill! I have also bought special purchases several times with no problems. And with my recent ban on Wal-Mart, it really helps us keep our grocery costs down. (I have also reviewed Wal-Mart if you are curious) —  Tip: Aldi only stocks in the morning, so if you go in the AM they will have a MUCH better… read full review »

Aldi Food Stores — It took me a while to check this store out, I fiqured it was low cost generic food. Boy was I wrong. Although I don't do all my shopping there It sure does help out on the family budget and has some great qualiy foods name brand and aldi name brand. — It was about a year after the store opened after hearing good comments after another,I decided to take a peek for myself.I was really suprised of the selection and taste the aldi name carried, alot of flavored items ready to cook,fancy looking too, who would of known. — Pro's and cons : — ~The store… read full review »

I have noticed that Aldi's prices have gone up quite a bit lately. Prices on some items have gone up so high, I've been able to find the for less at a major grocery chain like Jewel. Don't get me wrong, I still shop there because you can get a better deal on most of the products, but I find myself having to pay closer attention to the price of some things that are sold for less at other stores. —… read full review »

I have to agree with other reveiwers, that staples come at a great price.  I was expecially pleased with their canned tuna because I was getting national brands and getting black specks in them.  I was leery of trying Aldi's tuna and was very satisfied with it.  Their frozen skinless, boneless chicken usually has less fat attached than from your regular grocers.  Since it is frozen, it is usually easier to remove.  However, besides the chicken, I will only buy their 90/10 ground meat.  Any lower ratio has more fat than you get at the regular grocery stores..… read full review »

ALDIs is a dream come true during a time of high oil and gasoline prices.  At ALDI the prices on staples such as milk, sugar, eggs, orange juice, cereal, frozen shrimp, salmon are the prices of a year or more ago at the "regular" markets. I belong to Sam's Club and have realized that ALDIs prices are LESS than Sam's most of the time!  I love the German coffee, German preserves, Austrian chocolate.  I don't eat processed food, so a lot of what ALDIs carries does not interest me, but some of the produce is good such as potatoes, onions and apples.  The tomato sauce… read full review »

I absolutely adore Aldi. How many times have you honestly looked forward to going to a grocery store? The values here are everywhere; I routinely save about 40% what I would buying the same things at the major grocery stores. Multiply that by what you spend on groceries over the course of the year and we're talking about very real money. — The quality of Aldis branded products is excellent - these aren't your black and white generic cans of old. And don't ever be afraid to try something at Aldi - if you don't like it - take it back for a full refund, no questions asked. I love that… read full review »

Aldi Stores have come a long ways since I was a kid; back then they were so bad that I was well into my 20s before I ventured into one again.  I agree that they can be hit-or-miss, but I am fortunate to have a decent one near my work where I can run in and out quickly and without spending a fortune.  The produce and dairy are very good and quite a lot cheaper here.  I also buy a lot of staples and especially around Christmas/baking time it saves me tons of money.  I haven't tried out the meat yet and will probably continue to buy that at Fareway.  The cans of veggies… read full review »

Aldi (or ALDI'S as people in Western New York call it) is a great place to save money, but you have to know what to buy. Some products are excellent substitutes for name brands, while others are way lacing in quality. I won't really go into specifics. You have to know what you want from a product and know what you are willing to accept as a substitute for your favorite name brand.. For example, I like Nutella chocolate hazelnut spread. In my opinion, the Aldi brand is exactly same as Nutella. The exact opposite can be said for their toasted O's cereal, which is a poor substitute for… read full review »

This store has been such a lifesaver for my family. We operate on a VERY tight budget and I am always looking for ways to save money. My In-laws had recommended this store to my husband and I so we went to check it out. Let me start by saying that if you are the type of person that must have "name brands" this is NOT the place for you, but if you are willing to try store brands then this place is unbelievable. They do carry some named brands and I have usually found them to be at good prices. I will also tell you that all of the things I have purchased there have been very high… read full review »

I love Aldi for the great prices. I will soon be leaving Charlotte, N.C. and moving to S.C. Unfortunately I can't find a store anywhere nearby. Aldi, if you read this review , PLEASE build one near Sun City Carolina Lakes, S.C.( Lancaster Co.)There is land available now,but development and building is going crazy, so hurry !! There will be 4000 retirees there and we all love a bargain.                               … read full review »

I have been an Aldi customer for almost 10 years.  Their store brands are wonderful and my family loves them! With the high costs of groceries, it is a blessing to be able find such a wide selection of quality food items.  — Unlike a lot of other cramped and dirty bargain shopping stores that I have frequented,  Aldi stores are spacious and clean.  Finally, the store clerks are very familiar with the products that the store carries and  they are helpful and courteous.  Aldi truly is a great place to shop! —… read full review »
