This Week at Aldi: The Ad for July 15, 2020

Last Updated on January 18, 2021

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 is more items for the dorm room or around the house, bedding, school supplies, children’s clothing and footwear, bathroom and personal care products, and some food highlights.

The Most Interesting Thing We Saw:

• SOHL Furniture 3-Tier Metal Rolling Cart, $29.99. This cart looks similar to a popular one sold at IKEA and other big box retailers. I bought the Aldi version a couple of years ago. I ended up returning it because the mounts for the wheels were not drilled straight, so the cart would not stand level. Here’s to hoping this year’s model at Aldi is improved. You can read our full review of the previous cart here.
