What's your favourite Aldi product?

[*LittleMissSummer*]

I was asked this the other week. I really love the docket at the end. BUT I hate that I don't have ALDI here in Cairns. I called them the other week & they told me they have no plans what so ever to bring Aldi here

Really?? There are like 3 on my side of canberra... I think its a bit excessive but they wont even open one up there??

[~Trish~]

We do all our shopping at Aldi, it's great! I love their Melting Moments biscuits, mmmm...and their honey soy chips *drool* Too many other products to name! But I do love their shampoo, bread, sliced meat (for sangas), and heaps more

Oh the Melting moments are divine.
Cafe Fruit loaf is fantastic.
I happily use the sensitve washing powder and soaker.
Plain and seaweed rice crackers are additive free (well the last I checked, so double check yourself)

Nope she said there is no plan to bring Aldi this far up, the only go as far as Bundy.

DH thinks it would be too costly for them, its not justa store they would have to open but distribution etc. Which I guess I get. If its going to cost them more to bring their product here then they would need to increase their prices which in turn isn't what aldi is about

They have a 'catchment' criteria, and I'm not sure who does the research to determine how many people will use the new stores. We have some around us...but by 'around', I mean they are roughly about 30kms away! I've asked a rello (on the 'inside' of development) and she said the nearest large town to me apparently doesn't qualify, though she's questioned it. I told her that if they built one, people who make the trek to the other ones further away would use the new one and the others would not suffer in income from that diversion. So, we'll see, but it's not looking likely.

Well tell her that I think Cairns & its lower income families would LOVE aldi & it would thrive here. Hell just with my family of 7, we would make it worth their while LOL

Nappies, baby wipes, nappy bags and yummy chicken nuggets!! Oh and dd loves their full cream milk

We visit aldi when they have specials like on toys etc, have bought some really awesome stuff for dd.

[Mum2SweetCs]

I always have to buy something from them

oh and their fry pan is so cheap and soooo durable!!!

[alish]

littlemisssummer - oh i love the souvlaki kits!! dh and myself are obsessed! we have a BOX of them in the cupboard, im not joking!

[Feijoa Mum]

Oh where to start???

I do the bulk of my shopping there everyweek and then down to Wollies to do the stuff Aldi dont carry. We have a Coles opening in our little shopping centre in a few months so will be very spoilt for choice.

Nappies, wipes, mixed vege, milk - $2.89 for 3ltrs (cheaper than woolies and coles) lunch stuff for the boys so much cheaper, cereals, biscuits, spaghetti and baked beans, Pasta sauce and pasta ........ I could go on and on!

I dont think there is anything I havent tried there so if anyone has any ????? on anything ask away

im so shocked that they're not planning on building up there, i think it would really be worth there while!!

but i love their chicken schnitzels and their chicken kievs, they're yummy!! and also some of their organic yoghurts (the apricot one....mmmmm)and.....just in general, i love the majority of their products, there cheap and good quality.
