What a time. We're easily spending $300-$500 on groceries per month, even more if you have multiple people in your household.
Aldi, a discounted supermarket chain, provides some cushioning with their outrageously low prices. The last time I shopped, I walked out with 3 full bags that cost me around $50-$60.
The only downside is that they have very limited products and variety. It's a small store that carries few brands. I wouldn't call this your one-stop shop for groceries, but you can get some fruits, veggies, milk, bread, eggs, and poultry here.
This Hackensack location does a decent job of keeping the store clean and organized. Inventory is usually well stocked. For the most part, the produce is fresh and good quality. The cashiers are friendly and they have self-checkout lanes.
Overall, it's worth a shot browsing around. I keep Aldi in my rotation for my grocery needs. read more
