The ALDI One Week Challenge Giveaway

As I was recently going over our budget and seeing where the majority of our money went, I was surprised to see how much we actually spent on groceries. When I was a stay-at-home I clipped coupons like a mad woman and saved our family tons of money.  Now that I’m working, I simply don’t have that amount of time anymore and our budget is paying dearly for it.  ALDI recently announced their “one week challenge” and I wanted to let you know about it. They are encouraging customers to shop ALDI for a week, shop the “other guy” for a week and then compare the savings between the two. Unfortunately for me there isn’t an ALDI in my area but hopefully you have one near you.

Did you know customers who typically shop traditional grocery stores can save up to $1,996.80, and those who shop big-box stores, save $998.40. Think of what you could do with the extra money each year! Through a select assortment and convenient grocery shopping approach, ALDI passes on savings to consumers with prices up to 50 percent below traditional supermarkets.

The last couple of years have been a time of growth for ALDI and since 2008 they have opened 100 new stores each year.  I see they are in Texas, so hopefully they are thinking of opening a store close to me!

A little about ALDI:

ALDI has been a leader in the grocery store industry since 1976 and has more than 1,000 U.S. stores located in 31 states primarily from Kansas to the East Coast. In the spring of 2010, ALDI opened a new division in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. A select assortment discount grocer featuring its own ALDI select brands, ALDI applies smart and efficient operational and business practices to save more than 20 million monthly customers up to 50 percent on their grocery bill. ALDI named 2009 Retailer of the year by PL Buyer, sells more than 1,400 of the most frequently purchased grocery and household items in manageable, non-bulk packaging. For more information about ALDI, go to www.aldi.us.

    Being an Aldi lover I would say I would probably spend my $25 on their crispy chicken in the blue bags. My husband makes this horribly delicious dish, he frys their chicken in the blue bag, tosses it with hot wing sauce and then smothers it with cheese and broils it. Boneless wings…decadent style!

    As an ALDI shopper myself, the non-food items are so much cheaper than Wal-Mart brand. I would love to win the gift certificate, as it would definately help out our grocery budget.

    I’ve heard our Aldi here has Tiramisu and that it’s delicious, so I would have to pick some up, also some canned goods.

    I would be in the ‘household must haves’ aisle. Their prices are great and after all – you must have it so you might as well pay less!

    I’d pick up fresh chicken breasts and some steaks for a special grilling out evening. We don’t do those enough 🙁

    I shop at Aldi’s all the time and would have no problem spending the card. I would definitely buy milk, cheese and eggs. The family really enjoys their frozen chimchangas so I’d buy a batch of them, some soups and if there’s anything left a few bags of peanuts at the checkout counter.

    I love (and need) Aldi. I would fill up my cart with their ice cream, chips, block cheese and my hubby’s favorite-breaded coconut shrimp. And their laundry soap-I can’t afford to buy it anywhere else! I’d be lost without this place.

    Waaah! I had big long list of everything I’d buy, but I got a server error when I hit submit, and now it’s all gone. So I’ll just say I’ll buy cereals and various chips.

    ALDI has really fresh produce, at least around here. I was surprised at first, and now I know I can count on the quality! I’d definitely load up on fruits and veggies.

    I didn’t realize that Aldi had fresh produce … I’d spend the gift (if I were lucky enough to win) on that! 🙂
