Is it worth my time to shop at both Aldi and Wegmans?
With a family of five, (six when my oldest is home from school) I am always interested in getting the best value for our food budget. We eat fairly healthy, and I cook nearly all of our meals at home.
I am fortunate to have several supermarkets in close driving range from home. I primarily tend to go to Aldi, Wegmans, and BJ's for my weekly food shopping.
Downloading the Wegmans app and putting my shopping list on the app has helped me to stick with my list and not buy random items as I shop. Knowing how much my list will come to (approximately, anyways)has helped to tame my grocery bill.
Locally, Wegmans and Aldi are located conveniently right next to each other. When I have time, I will go to Aldi first, and get what I can from my list, moving on afterwards to Wegmans to finish my shopping.
I knew I was saving some money, but I took a recent small shopping trip to Aldi and did a comparison of what the same items would have cost me at Aldi.
