$80 Grocery “Challenge”
I know people LOVE Aldi. Like, … a lot.
This is my first time shopping here in at minimum 6 years, but might be closer to 7 or 8.
I have had an unbelieve past 12 months, battling everything from chronic illness to homelessness, but this is not about me.
I am someone who is not only living below “paycheck to paycheck”, but more like “dollar bill to nickle in my pocket”.
A family member has arranged for me to move in with them while I get back on my feet. On Instacart, they are letting me use a “$40 off $80” coupon.
I’m a natural Capricorn who is a complete cheapass, only amplified by the year I’ve had.
I can’t get over the fact that pizza is the most “bang for buck” food in the entire world. No food in the world will ever give you the amount of calories in pizza for the price point of pizza.
For reference, the “Mama Cozzi’s Sausage Pizza” is $5.99 for 46oz worth of food. That’s insane.
Can someone please assist me with ideas on what else I could buy that will satisfy my belly, my mood, and my insatiable desire for a good deal.
Please tell me your own favorite “bang for buck” food from Aldi, and for the extra creative people, please tell me how you would spend $80.
Thank you so much to everyone who took the time.
