A while back, we posted a collection of e-mails we’ve received from people who think we’re Aldi. This is in spite of the face that our about page, our contact page, our disclosure policy page, and our tagline all go to great lengths to note that we’re not Aldi. We still get e-mails. Here, again,…
Each week we highlight a few of the more interesting items in the upcoming Aldi ad. Note that, in our area, the ad takes effect on Wednesday, but in some areas it may take effect as early as today, Sunday. This week’s theme includes technology, moving supplies, bathroom gear, kitchen…
Soda (or pop*) is not good for you. Most people know this. It’s high in sugar and mostly nonexistent in nutritional value. Nevertheless, it’s tasty, and there are occasions when soda (in moderation, of course), can be a special treat, such as during a summer cookout or a birthday party.…

Aldi has several good options in the meat department if you’re looking for a seasoned, ready-to-bake or ready-to-grill entree. The Roseland Pork Sirloin Roast is one of those options. The Roseland Boneless Seasoned Pork Sirloin Roast is sold refrigerated and contains up to a 15% solution of water, vinegar, sodium…
Few things are more synonymous with Aldi than the almighty quarter. It is the gatekeeper, the shopping companion, and the collateral for something borrowed. Or, to be less poetic about it: in order to get a cart from Aldi, you need to insert a quarter into the cart, releasing it from…
Two years ago today, we started a blog dedicated to Aldi product reviews, news, and features, in large part because we realized we couldn’t find reviews of Aldi products ourselves. So we decided to try. Two years and over one million pageviews later, Aldi Reviewer (or, AR, as we’ve come…
