They also sometimes have limited time offers, when they offer a range of vegan sandwich spreads or similar. So it pays to check their website now and then for the new offers.
Huh. We have vegan veggie burgers - black bean and chipole- that are ok, but not tofu or the othersAbsolutely unheard of over here…….
and unsweetened almond! I dislike unsweetened almond and often find myself going back to switch with original!This is what I've observed at Aldi here: They will stock some things only occasionally. Then, if they find that there appears to be a sustained demand or the item, it will eventually become a regularly stocked item.
That's how the local store went from having only soy milk to also having almond milk to having chocolate almond milk also. Right now, coconut milk is an occasional item.
I'm really happy a 'Sprouts' has opened up near my home. So much produce, so inexpensive! On Wednesday, they keep the weekly sale items from the previous week, and add the ones from the upcoming week. It's on my way home from work, so I stop there a couple of times a week (every Wednesday, I mean ex. yellow mangoes 3/$1!!)
Edit to add: Sprouts also has a shelf-stable hummus without added oil (tahini, yesss) called Wild Garden, I recommend the jalapeno flavor. Not particularly cheap, but I'm avoiding added oils as much as possible these days.
Well I don't know if aldi is that regional or what, but I love mine- not for everything They always have Moser Ross dark chocolates, always vegan, sometimes fair trade, also in mint and orange almond (and chili-blech) Lots of organic quinoa, plain and seasoned, at far better prices than I've seen anywhere else. Organic flaxseeds, chia, different whole grains and mixes- same as trader joes but again a better price. organic coconut oil, apple cider vinegar with mother. Organic canned tomato products.
Their produce isn't always a better buy, but the sales go in rotation so when things like mushrooms are at .69 cents a pack I make my hot sour soup, and gravies. They're the only store which deeply discounts produce when they get overstock--as in, it's still fresh. I've gotten things like grape tomatoes, bunches of bananas, onions, at .39 for a pack, two pounds, and 3 pounds. every other store puts produce on sale when it's more like compost
I also have bought my nutri- bullet knock off, steam mop, a Lenovo knock off external hard drive and other things they randomly get
ATTENTION KROGER SHOPPERS: Lots of digital coupons, all good up to five times! They expire on March 21st, so get 'em while ya can!
Digital Coupons
Yeah, I usually open another tab just for researching certain products if I'm not familiar with them.... but I've noticed, over time, that the coupons offered are becoming more & more geared toward stuff I usually buy. For instance, so far I've uploaded lots of coupons for Simple Truth products, frozen veggies, naked potato skins, pet food, etc....I second this recommendation. Kroger has some great deal *IF* you use the digital coupons. I only have two problems with them. First, there are hundreds of them. I have to spend a half-hour or so just scrolling through the tremendous selection. Second, some of the products--I have no idea what they are or what they are for. Often they have a name, but I will have no idea what the name means.
I also shop at Walmart Neighborhood Store--the Walmart version of a supermarket. They often have prices lower than Kroger--but not lower than the deal you can get when using the Kroger digital coupons.
