Well, Atlanta is a stink-pot for their jacked up produce and grocery prices so discovering Aldi has literally halved my grocery bill, or at least a third it. I was particuarly pleased with my most recent trip. Look at all I bought for $35!!!! (PS, if you live in Utah where the prices are rather low, at least try to be happy for me...
The carrots, lemons, onions, cauliflower, and 6 kiwi were all $1 each!
Yes, I did stock up on macaroni and cheese. David adores Aldi's brand; he claims it's better than Kraft. We have balsamic vinegar (if it's good, great! If not, it was 2 bucks.) 4 lbs of pasta, cereal for a rice krispie treat craving, 4 cans of REDUCED FAT Cream of something soup, like dawn dish soup, delish pasta sauce, cream of wheat, pudding for my baking needs (who eats this plain???), and 3 cans of green chilies. I'm pleased.
I also bought 2 dozen eggs and 1 lb of sausage. Score. It's fun being frugal. Cheers!

I love The Frugal Girl, as you know. :) Great job, Rachel!
Thanks for the tip, Rachel. I'm getting fed up with high prices of groceries, especially the high prices for bad produce (still waiting for farm's markets to open). I'm going to Aldi tomorrow to check it out!
I also read Frugal Girl's Blog! Don't you love it?
Love to save money!!!! :) When I get groceries I love to see how much I save. On the receipt where I often go, it will give me a dollar amount and a percentage of what I saved. :) It's exciting. Nice work!
