Aldi is now open in Derry located next to Monkey Sports and Ocean State Job Lot. The official grand opening took place on October 29, 2015 and they were giving away free reusable shopping bags with any purchase to celebrate the occasion. This new Aldi store is bright, clean, and organized pretty well.
Aldi is a "no frills" discount food market, which stocks the basic groceries, food items, and household things. The stuff here is pretty cheap and the prices here are competitive with Market Basket, Wal-Mart, and Hannaford. My family and I do some of our food shopping at Aldi often to save money. Aldi carries mostly their own line of brands of each product (their own unique brand names), plus they offer special purchases of name brand products. The store carries the basic dry groceries & staples, household items, canned goods, snacks, candy, limited produce, meats, deli items, frozen foods, dairy products and other perishables. There are no full service departments (ie deli, butcher, seafood, etc) here. Sometimes, they carry some specials products (ALDIfinds) such as car accessories, storage items, patio furniture, toys, radios, car battery chargers, and even GPS units. Time to go shopping!
I like General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios ($2.65) and they also carry the lower priced Millville Honey Nut Crispy Oats ($1.69). Check!
Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Pancake Mix (just add water) is great for camping trips, but so is Aunt Maple's Buttermilk Pancake Mix ($1.49), Check!
Aunt Jemima Syrup is a favorite on my flapjacks, but I can settle for Aunt Maple's Syrup ($1.59 for 24oz bottle). Check!
Quaker Instant Oatmeal helps to start the day right, and so does Millville Instant Oatmeal ($1.49).Check!
I want "me" (General Mills) Lucky Charms, but Millville Marshmallow Stars ($1.69) are just as colorful and fun to eat for breakfast. Check!
Chobani Greek Yogurt is a very healthy and delicious snack, but let's hope Friendly Farms Greek Yogurt ($0.75 each) is just as healthy and yummy too. Check!
Hamburger Helper is super, but Reggano Skillet Dinners (99 cents) will do! Check!
My Grandma swears by Betty Crocker Fudge Brownie Mix, but to save money I'll trust Bakers Corner Fudge Brownie Mix ($0.99) is just as good. Check!
Lays Wavy Potato Chips are great for football parties, but so do Clancy's Wavy Potato Chips ($1.49). Check!
I love Kraft Singles Light on my veggie burgers, but Fit & Active 2% Milk American Product Singles ($1.89) will do just as well. Check!
Aldi has "mah" Millville Quick Grits back in stock for only $1.29 (24 oz container). Check!
Mama McNabb loves Campbells Chunky Soup on cold days, but Chefs Cupboard Chunky Soup ($1.19 can) should also be great for cold days. Check!
While here, let's grab some Pringles ($1.45), Benton's Maple Leaf Cream Cookies ($1.99-special buy) and Bananas (44 cents/lb). Let's not forget to grab a frozen Belmont Pumpkin Pie ($2.99) for dessert. Check!
We always bring our own bags to Aldi since they charge for bags, 6 cents for paper, 10 cents for plastic, and 99 cents for a reusable. There's a self bagging area along the front window. The shopping carts are located outside in front of the store for 25 cent ( one quarter) rental fee, which is refunded upon return.
