Aldi Master Thread

was just in Aldi on Friday
Didnt remember what to check but checked a few items bolded above

Mayo 3.29
eggs 12pk 2.64
veg oil 48 oz 3.39
Macaroni .98

So everything at least slightly cheaper, and some things significantly cheaper.

The macaroni at Aldi's comes in 12 oz packages. I have found Target and Trader Joe's to be consistently 99 cents for a 16 oz package

Mayo:  If it's not Hellman's it's not mayo.  Does that still apply to your price comparison?
Eggs: large not extra large so that's not really a great price
Oil: Canola oil is often on sale in the frum stores.  This week it's on sale in GG in Lakewood for 5.69 for 96 oz.
Macaroni: Already mentioned above

For the record, I like to shop at Aldi.  I often buy french fries and tater puffs there (disclaimer that you need to check for a hechsher EVERY time you buy them because I've seen them with and without a hechsher).  I also buy loads of cereal (I specifically like their imitation rice krispies and rice chex), vegetables, canola oil spray (I like it better than Great Value brand), nuts, etc. 
 
I find that their prices vary from great to good to ok, depending on what you are buying. However, you can buy most of these items for about the same price from Walmart (and if you have Walmart+ you can have them delivered for free to your door).
