Aldi Produce
The best produce deals this week were 5 pound bags of baking potatoes for $1.29 each and a 3 pound bag of sweet onions for 99 cents.
Aldi Frozen, Dairy and Meat
I bought a smaller pack of bacon this week instead of thawing one of my bigger packages of Zaycon bacon. I could have saved more money by purchasing ground beef rather than pre-made patties but I needed a quick and easy dinner for one night this week so I splurged.
