What do I need to buy in Aldi

[Chocolou]

Very excited. I'm having my first trip to Aldi tomorrow. What goodies do I need?

Avoid the aisle of doom.

It doesn't matter what you think you need... you will spend £12368 on crap

I will reply what others replied to me when I posted this question :-
Look at all the other Aldi threads on here!!

Pack of 4 caramel shortbreads, honeycomb ice cream, minted lamb kebabs, cod & parsley sauce fishcakes, bbq pork pizza.

Salmon and lemon fishcakes!!
Refrigerated individual puddings.

Elderflower sparkling water.

Their cheese and
cooked meats selection is very good , their smoked haddock with cheese filling fish cakes are divine, the versions of branded chocolate like marathons, mars bars and twixes are a lot cheaper and taste exactly the same, cereals are perfectly acceptable,

Boneless bbq ribs (sans as M&S and half the price) and green yoghurt (the proper stuff, not Greek style).

Sans = same
Green = Greek

I haven't been drinking, honest.

Their cheapo wine about £2.60 tropical mix it's lovely 😂. I love everything from there just done my weekly shop today I save a fortune every Time. Baby event is on today too

World Foods Mushroom and Garlic risotto. Not the chicken and vegetable one as it is horrible!

Gorgonzola dop cheese. It’s amazing if you like stinky cheese.

their fillet steaks are lovely, do have a rummage for decent shape ones though, some of them can be very odd ends and not so nice.

their ground coffee and coffee beans are all very good, the italian beans/ground and the decaff ground.

A grocery shop I can spend £80, for 4 men in the house and me.

Special Buys can whack it up to over £100 because I love the stuff so much, particularly home accessories; cushions, blankets and duvet covers

I love the pizza.
The cheese.
The bread.
The caramel slices.
The Greek yogurt.

Next time I go I’m getting a Jo Malone reed diffuser after reading the reed diffuser thread that’s going in Housekeeping.

Their Gin & Tonic ice lollies might just fall into my shopping bag too...

Duck breasts are cheap and the odd decent bottle of wine they are selling strangely cheap.

Avoid cycling accessories, childrens socks and portable BBQ aisle. It is for the unwary.

Chilli cheese! Can't get enough of it!
The big tubs of fruit yogurt, and the chocolate desserts with cream on top

Stock up on their own brand rocky/mars/twix biscuits. They taste exacly the same but much cheaper. I love their antibac wipes and fragrance free soap.

The Moser Roth chocolate and fine instant coffee ( a fake Nescafé Azera) are lovely.

If you have a baby their nappies and 100% wipes are really good. 1/5 of the price of Pampers.

Alpaca muslin cloths.....

The sour cream and onion lentil curl snacks are addictive. They’re basically bags of mini poppadoms and they’re evil. Evil I tell you!

The kids love the salami and pepperoni supplies when they’re in pizza mode, which is approximately once every two and a half hours over the summer months.

The big packs of chicken breasts are superb value, as are the 1kg packs of 5% mince. I just did a £40 shop today and I’ve got meals for a week and more brioche than even my children will be able to consume over the weekend.

Fruit pastilles, 59p for a bag.
Mint tea bags, the fancy ones in a tall think box.

This chocolate is amaaaaazing! So worth getting fat(ter) for!

Vintage crunchy somerset cheddar cheese
Fizzy morello cherry drink
Chorizo
'crunchy nut cornflakes' equivalent
W5 Dishwasher tablets

Pretend kinder buenos (they do regular hazelnut and also cocoa ones, sorry can't rememeber the name!)

Ooh and pretend caramel wafer bars

Oh sorry remembered more!

Chicken thighs
pretend petit filous'
greek style yoghurt (come in handy little individual portion pots)
