You Should Always Shop At Aldi On Wednesdays

From Women's Health

On a recent trip to Aldi's Batavia, IL headquarters, Aldi's head honchos were kind enough to share plenty of insight on what makes their grocery stores so beloved — and how to make your shopping experience even better. Besides pointing out some great hidden gems, like their copycat Girl Scout Cookies and a 7-UP-flavored cake, Aldi let us in on an important shopping hack: In most markets, new items come out on Wednesdays!

Hump Day is typically when the Aldi Finds section gets a refresh, adding between 40 and 50 new items to your local store. These include seasonal items — like college dorm decor and school lunchboxes in the fall — as well as test products, like these Bai-inspired organic fruit juices. The Aldi Finds section is also where you'll find specialty products, like flavored olive oils.

In some markets, new items come out on Sunday. The trick to knowing which schedule your local shop operates on — ask an employee which day the Aldi Insider weekly ad comes out. Pro tip: The weekly newsletter gets published online, too. This weeks' finds include tailgating gear, a 16-piece food container set that's just $5, and a $2 Taco Bell Crunchy Dinner Kit.
