- These are the top 10 things you should be buying
at Aldi this August, 2023 and this month has some amazing
and unexpected fines that you are going to love.
We begin with this $10 storage bargain
and it's about that time of year
where these underbed storage bins
come in particularly handy
for all sorts of seasonal storage.
These are 40 Quart
and to buy a three pack equivalent on Amazon
you'd be paying around $24 a piece versus the $10 at Aldi.
While we're on the topic of storage,
I like this four-tier chrome shelf at $50.
This is perfect for prepping
or a pantry could even be great in a laundry room.
This portable blender at $15 is a dupe of the Blendjet too
where that brand name version typically costs close to $50
while the Aldi version has the same amount of power
for a fraction of the cost.
Point two on my list today has a rather compact theme
that starts with this handheld travel steamer
for $13, it's compact, lightweight,
and this clothing steamer heats up in around 90 seconds.
I was impressed with what I purchased, ideal for travel.
I wanted to test out this two in one corded pet stick vac
for $30 before I made any recommendations.
As I didn't quite believe an effective vacuum
could cost this little, it does work as promised
and one of the attachments was perfect
for cleaning out my car.
This handheld steam cleaner at $20
is one of the most popular small appliances
on sale at Aldi right now
whether it's for removing clothing creases,
or cutting through grease while you clean.
I bought last year's model, which is an identical product
and continues to perform beautifully.
This easy-to-use 360 degrees swivel spray mop at $15
is a bit of a take on the Swiffer WetJet.
I like that you get two microfiber pads for the price.
I enjoy the new modern aesthetic
of this large laundry basket at $7.
It's available in blue or gray,
and this silicone scrub glove at $7
is designed to protect your hands
while you do the dishes while removing dirt.
Point three on my list is looking rather decadent today,
and that all starts
with this eight pack of butter bars for 5.29.
It looks identical to the lemon bars you see right here
at the same price.
If it weren't for the label, they are indistinguishable
and the taste of the lemon ones I sampled quite exquisite.
For $4 I think many of us might find this eight pack
of frozen root beer floats
from the very well-known Barg's brand rather nostalgic.
I did not try this as I bought the box for my dad.
It's one of his favorite things
and I didn't want to presample,
but I did try these vanilla ice macarons
at 4.95 for four.
They are all that is good in life
as an ice cream sandwich can be,
sandwiched so perfectly between a brilliantly textured
pair of macarons.
I happen to love mochi, so I was intrigued to find
this mix of berry smoothie mochi for 4.97
and the strawberry banana smoothie combination
that I opted to try for the same price.
It tastes exactly like a sublime strawberry smoothie
with that novelty chewiness any mochi fan will appreciate.
My frugal hungry heart skipped a beat
when I saw the six pack
of Stracciatella dipped cookie sandwiches for 3.49.
You can indulge in a different side of heaven
from either direction
depending upon how you approach this dessert.
It is beyond splendid and rather filling.
The sweet vanilla or mocha fudge cold foam
you see right here at 4.49 is a great way to save money
if you're currently paying a barista
to enhance your favorite beverage,
you can now do that from home for a fraction of the cost.
By the way, if you are enjoying this video
feel free to give it a thumbs up
as that really helps my channel.
In the number four spot things get personal
with this folding table.
It is nicely priced at $15.
If you need something for camping or a small patio
this could work.
At $5.25 you could place this ratan lantern with handle
on top of your new personal table or enjoy this on a deck.
They look really nice in person.
And while we're on the topic of illumination
these 20 count globe string lights at $10
are 24 feet in length and they include some extra bulbs
as a bonus.
Another potential for your backyard
could be this bird feeding station at 7.49
which is nicely equipped with a bird bath.
For indoor decor the moon and star metal garland set
you see right here at $7,
might look nice in a kid's bedroom
or really any room for that matter
and for hanging garland sets, plants,
or large picture frames,
the damage free hooks right here at $4
are a dupe of the command version
and something I was happy to see at my local store.
For my next point, this durable flat weave indoor
or outdoor area rug you see right here
is six feet by nine feet weather resistant at $50.
If you've ever wanted an office chair without armrests.
Behold, this velvet office chair is $60.
It does have a beautiful modern aesthetic.
For sharing messages or menus
amongst family members for a special occasion
or establishing new rules like the Berenstain Bears did
with one of these chalkboard writing boards.
They are $10
for properly documenting a first day of school milestone
these wet erase boards
such as this one alongside many other boards
to categorize chores or help you plan,
they all cost $7.
And if you prefer to plan in more
of a journal or agenda form,
these perpetual planners and journals are very popular,
particularly with teens right now,
alongside these perpetual calendars
at $5 which are year agnostic
meaning you could use and enjoy them regardless
of what year it happens to be.
In the number six spot all of today's food finds
costs less than $7 starting with sushi
which has returned with a vengeance like this.
15 pack of spicy crab rolls very nicely priced at $5.
For the same price a 15 pack coconut shrimp tempura roll
could be another contender.
If you have a passion for shrimp and want to elevate
that appreciation to a whole new level,
this 15 pack of assorted shrimp prep is $5 complete
with a sweet chili dipping sauce
and assuming you've had enough of shrimp by now
crispy pepperoni pan pizza at $7 from the Mama Cozzi brand.
I would however classify this six pack
of New York Bakery breadsticks at 3.09 as a do not buy.
You can find the exact same thing
from Walmart for $2.92.
A seven ounce assorted olive medley at 3.35
could work from anything from a pasta dish
to a martini or Greek salad.
And while we're on the topic of salad,
I think this next selection of individualized
to-go salad bowls at 2.99 each are a remarkable all defined.
You've got Caesar salad, one that has a lot of kik.
A Santa Fe or chef salad,
and they are incredibly well-priced
considering they include chicken.
Speaking of palatable pricing in the number seven spot,
this fridge bottle storage two pack at $10
is a versatile product great for water bottles
in addition to wine.
These stackable drawer organizers at $10
could function well in a pantry or even an office.
This three pack of plastic fridge liners
at $5 are a cut-to-fit product that can diminish
the number of nicks or scratches inside a fridge.
In addition to enhancing cleanliness.
And while we are discussing the pantry,
this two pack of three-tiered storage pantry organizers
for $9 definitely works well with anything from spices
or olive oil and vinegar bottles, even hot sauce.
This next product is designed
for a laundry room based on the pattern
but I would totally use this in a kitchen as well.
They are 20 inch by 39 inch comfort mats,
very well priced at $10.
For that one mystery drawer we all have in our home.
This six pack of drawer organizers at $8
could help clutter make a lot more sense.
For a decor piece or breakfast in bed
the curved acacia tray you see right here at $13
is at a much lower price
than this would traditionally retail
for elsewhere, and it looks fantastic in person.
Before I showcase some highly practical tech
from my next point, it's a $15 popcorn maker.
And this is one of the more popular retro gadgets
I encountered last year.
This could amplify the excitement
for any family movie night.
It has a great design and if cotton candy
is more your thing, this one-touch operation machine,
same price $15 is supposedly not too difficult to clean.
Now as a perfect accompaniment
to that cozy fall weather not too far off in the distance
this electric s'mores maker
at $20 is a lovely stainless steel contraption
you might want to consider.
If you're looking to better organize
or understand meal portions,
a task with which I typically struggle,
these perfect portion portable meal kits are at $5.
You get multiple color options and they serve
as an easy BPA free way to transport your lunch to work.
As a nice way to steer clear
of the high cost associated with Ziploc bags,
Aldi has these reusable snack or sandwich bags at 3.69
but I am personally not a fan of these for school lunches
particularly for food items that have crumbs.
There is a silicone version that my wife Daria bought
for our daughter, which I'll link to on the screen
using the YouTube shopping tool.
For my next point
this three-tier rolling cart at $25 is almost 31 inches tall
and it provides some perfect companionship
for an office or easy chair.
A shopper standing beside me watched
as I videoed this entryway friendly 16 cubby organizer
for $20 and the woman told me the handbag
you see on the top right is an ostrich purse
from Hermes that costs a whopping $55,000.
So of course I laughed hysterically
at both the fact that such a price exists tied to a purse
and that it is somehow in a photo of a $20 Aldi product.
I like the quality of this 10 pack of velvet hangers for $5
but there are better deals to be had from other retailers
which I'll link to on the screen.
This 10.5 gallon stainless steel trash can
at 12.49 is a fantastic buy
for an office or even crafting and DIY.
This two-tiered organizer is $15
and these stackable storage bins
could be integrated for toy or textbook storage
as we head back to school and cost $10.
New pill cases and holders have descended upon Aldi for $4
with all sorts of different designs.
Your mileage may vary considering there are cheaper
alternatives from the Dollar Tree,
but there might be something particularly unique
that piques your interest.
Before we get to the bonus section for my next point
this product has beat inflation.
It's one of the least expensive LED HD projectors
I have seen for $70.
It's returned from last year with a lower price
and new packaging.
You could pair that projector with this inflatable
outdoor screen for $90.
It includes a carry case and grounding stakes.
Could be enjoyed by your kids or grandkids
while they watch movies
from these adorable armchairs at $25.
To better accommodate a personalized sized tablet screen,
these character tablet holders at $10
could come in handy for homework
or many of the educational apps that some kids are using.
And the adult version of that product
might be this portable lap desk for $8 complete
with wrist rest padding
alongside a tablet holder and a texturized surface.
So if the desk shifts around in your lap
your tech does not go flying.
Our bonus section begins
with these cute $10 LED novelty lamps.
And since my five-year-old daughter Mara
is going through a unicorn appreciation phase
I bought one of these lamps.
I like the auto shutoff timer.
It's powered by three AA batteries, which are not included.
I don't believe I've ever seen reading glasses
at Aldi where you could pre-select your prescription
in three packs priced at $5.
Yes, they do cost less
if you were to buy these from Dollar Tree
but the Aldi quality just looked a bit better to me.
Wellness themed candles at $5 with motivational words
like balance, happy, calm or focus, all available.
And if you intend to win the next Powerball
or Mega Millions to increase your luck,
maybe one of these two and a half inch
lucky bamboo pots could serve as your hookup.
They cost 6.49.
And while I did buy this
it was more because my wife loved the design of the pot.
I already feel very lucky with all of you watching.
So thank you. I love you.
Bye-bye.
