As far as produce and store brand prices Walmart price matches Aldi's if you are within 100 miles of them. We have 1 hr to drive to get to a Aldi's. so I never really get to one. But last year I got tons of pomegranates 3 for a dollar from Walmart with my phones Aldi's ad. 🙂
That's a great tip! We don't have an iPhone, so we miss out on some of those kinds of deals. But that's good to know, thanks for sharing!
Unfortunately, I don't have an Aldi close either. I save money on groceries by shopping the sales and stockpiling. Then, I plan my menus based on the sales. I'm enjoying your series!
That's a great way to save, Kristen! And I'm so glad you're enjoying this series! It's helping me focus on something positive, rather than just thinking about unemployment! 🙂
I've heard we have an Aldi where we can drive to but it's not in our town. I have 6 kids 4 at home. 4 boys lol. It's hard to keep food lol. I think we spend most our budget on food. I've cut back our trips to sams (Costco) to every other week. I'm learning how to waste less food as well. Making chicken from one meal make 2 meals. It has been trial and error. I stock up when there's a sale, don't buy name brands very much, and cook simple meals instead of trying many ingredient recipes.

Thanks for sharing these helpful tips, Christina! I agree about making simple meals–that can save a lot of money. And I'm sure 4 boys must eat a lot! 🙂
Aldi is AWESOME!!!! And a God send!! There is one within 2 miles of me and it is my main grocery store. Nothing helps the budget go further than Aldi…although I am not fond of their meat.
How blessed you are to have an Aldi so close to you!!! Our nearest one is about an hour away.
