Saving Money on Groceries at Aldi this Week
Here are a few things to remember when you are shopping at ALDI:
You need to bring a quarter to unlock and use a grocery cart. You are basically renting your cart to use in the store. You will get it back when you return your cart to the proper place.
You will also need to bring your own shopping bags, totes, or boxes. Otherwise, you will have to pay for bags, or just throw your groceries into your car as is.
Aldi sales start on Sunday and run through Saturday.
However, they will often run an amazing deal on certain items, but specify that those deals don’t begin until Wednesday then run through Saturday.
Make sure you read the ad carefully so you know exactly which day the actual sale of the item you are looking for is running.
If you see a super good meat sale in the Sunday ad, most likely, the sale won’t start until Wednesday. Always read the dates!

Instacart Customer
Have you tried to order your groceries through Instacart yet?
Instacart works with over 300 retailers and local grocery stores, but make sure you check your area to see which stores are participating.
In my area, Instacart is delivering to four stores – Aldi, Big Lots, Kinney Drugs, and Price Chopper.
You have the option to schedule your delivery as soon as one hour, or later in the day, or even later in the week.
Instacart accepts many different payment options, including debit, credit, EBT, and Instacart gift cards.
Instacart Shopper and Delivery Person
I became a shopper/delivery person for Instacart back in January 2020.
I loved it!
I kept saying that having personal shoppers and getting your groceries delivered to your door was really going to become a big thing in the future.
I just had no idea that the future was just a couple of months away and the catalyst would be a worldwide pandemic!
The awesome part about working as a shopper/delivery person for InstaCart is you get to choose when to work and which jobs to accept.
The job description comes up on your phone. You can see which town you will be shopping in, and how far it will take you to deliver it.
It tells you how much the job will pay and how much the customer will pay you in tips.
You can choose as many or as little jobs as you would like that day.
It is extremely flexible and makes it super easy to make some extra cash.
They also make it easy to get paid.
I have always chosen to get a direct deposit into my checking account every week, but you can also choose instant cash and get paid the same day!
If you are interested in becoming an InstaCart shopper/delivery person, please consider using my referral information so I can get credit for sending you over there. Thank you!
