This is approximately what I save. Your savings will vary depending on what you buy and how often you shop. We eat a HUGE amount of fresh fruits and vegetables at my house!
As you can see Walmart beat none of Aldi's prices! I can't speak for everyone's store, but my Aldi has very, very nice FRESH vegetables! Ask what day your store gets their produce and shop when the selection and quality is at it's best!

I love shopping at ALDI for the produce too! I usually go to whichever store has the best coupon deals for the week, then go to ALDI to pick up my produce. The prices can't be beat, and most of the time I think the quality is better too.
Mary Ellen,
I think you are right, but it took me a long time to realize this!
I don't especially like the extra stop but it is well worth it!
I've never even heard of this store - wish my area had one! I try and by most of my produce from Farmer's Markets and roadside stands when in season - it's the most inexpensive way here!

Thanks! There's four of them in Birmingham...a little over an hour away, lol! My sister-in-law lives there though, so I'll make sure she knows about it, and hopefully I can stop in the next time I'm up that way!
We are lucky to have many many aldi's in our area - the produce can't be beat in regards to price - I like that weekly they have super prices on a few things - like 99cent cantalope - the stores locally can't beat aldi's - enjoy mary
The few times I have tried to shop at Aldi's because of reading or hearing about other's successes, I was VERY disappointed in the quality of the produce that I got there. I bought a pineapple that turned out to be half rotten when I cut into it and red peppers that were bad 2 or 3 days after purchasing them. I know they have a money back guarantee, but I don't have time to be having to return things - I need them to be fresh in the first place. Maybe I'll give them one more try after reading the tip about finding out what day they get their produce.
I love ALDI, I started buying most of my produce and canned goods from there! Very good quality!
I love Aldi's produce... in our area they also have the cheapest milk and eggs so it is a staple of my shopping!
