*A special thanks to ALDI for sponsoring our 4th Of July Cookout. All opinions are my own*
Summer is here and to me, that means cookouts and picnics! When I grocery shop for a big family, it can be so expensive you almost want to shed a tear. Did you know that ALDI has all of your picnic and cookout needs for anytime of the year! They offer so many items. I was thrilled to have the chance to visit their store and shop for our 4th Of July Cookout! I want to share with you what I was able to buy for $150.12! YES you heard that right! If you enjoy finding the highest quality products, including fresh produce, at the lowest possible prices in a simple and easy-to-navigate shopping environment, then ALDI is for you! Check it out below and see for yourself!
I was so excited about the variety of items that ALDI had to offer!
Every cookout needs paper plates, paper towels and napkins!
Cheese and baked beans anyone? Yes, these are must haves for a cookout!
I bought two Country Style Pork Ribs, Two Chicken Breast Tenderloins, Two packs of corn, two packs of hot dogs, one 12 pack of brats. I also bought 4 lbs of hamburger meat.
Chips are also a must have for a cookout! ALDI has so many different kinds of chips to offer! I bought some Clancy's Pretzel Rods, Baked BBQ Chips, Baked Original, Tortilla Chips and Penguin Crackers.
They also have a variety of produce. We bought a 10 lb bag of potatoes for less than $3.
They have these CROFTON Brand cute glass mason jars and Bamboo Bowl with Utensils! We put this to use with the potato salad I made with the potatoes we bought! (I will share my recipe in a future post!)
I loved these cups because they were great for the adults to use!
They were inexpensive too!
Need to marinate those ribs or bbq? They offer a variety of condiments too!! They have so much to offer you for your special day or every day grocery shopping.
Lastly, a cookout isn't a cookout unless you buy hotdog and hamburger buns! They offer these too!
I bought the kids some glow in the dark bracelets and flags! Both for about $3. We had so much fun cooking out thanks to ALDI!
Did I mention that their Watermelon is OH SO YUMMY?!
The end result of our night
Lydia loved how I fancied the hot dogs too!
As a reminder, I spent $150.12 on all of this! We still have a ton of stuff left over for next time too! You can check out the weekly ads for ALDI to see what great deals they have to offer for that week! You can visit their website to find a store near you too! Overall, I am so thrilled about our shopping experience, I can't wait to go back and shop for the month! Visit ALDI on their social media below to stay up to date with the latest!
