- These are the top 10 things you should be buying at Aldi
this September, 2022,
and this month has some incredible and unexpected finds
you are going to love!
For 0.1, let's begin with a great way
to impress your guests.
This wooden serving tray,
which kind of looks like a carousel
without the sides carved out,
includes a dip bowl built into the middle for 14.29.
And I think this resembles a beautiful piece you might see
from a museum gift shop,
let alone at Aldi for just over 14 bucks.
With back to school comes a new found family fixation
with laundry.
And this laundry backpack for 10 bucks,
it is ideal if you're transporting a lot of clothing
to and from a laundromat
or, in some cases,
for college apartments.
I wanted to buy this to gauge the quality.
I love the back compartment for detergent,
or dryer balls,
and for hauling all sorts of other fun things around,
this trolley cart at 20 bucks
was another product I purchased
as part of my September Aldi haul.
It's especially good
if you shop at stores
where your groceries are packaged up in boxes
rather than bags,
it easily folds up for storage,
and this would be awesome
for bringing gifts or boxes to the post office
come holiday time.
In the number two spot,
it's a small $25 appliance
to help cut down on a much larger cost
if you frequently buy ice coffee from outside your house.
This iced coffee maker comes in three different colors:
black, blue, and salmon.
Although I feel when you're dealing with coffee,
maybe the manufacturer should have referred
to the final color in a non fishy name.
But anyhow, I wanted to test this
and use the included ice tumbler,
and it does make delicious iced coffee from ground beans
in a matter of minutes.
Take a look at this immersion blender for $15.
That's a great price for something
that's capable of making soups, smoothies, purees,
mousse, sauces.
And this compact air fryer right here for $35
is nearly identical to the one
that I bought from Aldi last year
for around the same price.
This is a wonderful entry level air fryer
with a two quart capacity.
Far cheaper than an Instant Pot,
take a look at this pressure cooker
and air fryer combo for $75.
It even has a touchscreen display.
This is a highly practical product.
I should mention none of this content is sponsored.
Aldi is not paying me to make this video.
To potentially extend the life of your produce,
this larger vented container with lid is 10 bucks,
designed for veggies.
And there's also a smaller version
in the form of a two pack for fruit,
also, 10 bucks.
Calling all dessert lovers.
Rejoice! It's 0.3.
And today, let's begin
with a fall and winter cheesecake sampler for 12.99
that I tried from the back of my car,
and why not combine
the best of two seasons worth of flavors?
I sampled the tuxedo from the trunk of my car,
which was far cheaper,
than what I had to rent for my sister's wedding
a few weeks ago.
I adored this slice.
Chocolate cream pie,
or whipped cheesecake pie,
is available for 5.49.
And I, once again, found myself gravitating
toward the chocolate for my taste test
and my goodness do I not regret my decision.
I wanna send a special shout out
to the cookie crust on this chocolate cream pie.
I don't know where you came from,
but I love you!
For $3 and 29 cents you can score yourself a two pack
of maple brown sugar mini Bundt cakes
or pumpkin pecan mini Bundt cakes.
This comes in a frozen form
so I sadly could not sample this from the trunk of my car,
but I did make this when it was available
at this time last year.
It was splendid.
And trust me, I never forget how a dessert tastes.
I was also not able to try
the sea salt caramel chocolate chip cookie pack
for 3.69 as it requires baking.
But here's a fun anecdote,
if you turn the package around
to see the nutrition information,
the calories are completely blocked by the package flap.
That's how the package is manufactured,
which is just how I like it.
Ignorance is bliss!
Consuming all those desserts has given me energy
to decorate on a dime.
I'm on a sugar high.
So for 0.4, let's begin with ceramic pumpkins for 10 bucks.
These are available in different designs,
and if ceramic doesn't float your boat,
maybe a felt-like texture will,
which is the case for this felt adored pumpkin on the right.
Circular fall decor signs have debuted at Aldi,
and these are more reminiscent
of what you might find at a HomeGoods,
except at Aldi, the price?
$9.
How premium looking are these harvest serving platters
for 10 bucks?
They feature fun and classy sayings,
like eat up witches.
Have you ever seen a reversible mantle sign?
This one is $8,
and the unique thing about these signs
is if you get tired of one side,
you can just flip it midway through the season.
This is a bargain to cure decor boredom,
and I like it.
Let's stick with that reversible theme
for a brief moment
and move on to something even bigger.
These wall signs right here for 13 bucks
are large and in charge,
and these would look beautiful in any home.
And, also, new this month,
these decorative fall pillows
at $10 also peaked my interest.
Before we explore a food product that deeply confuses me,
it's 0.5.
And for refrigeration on the go,
this electric travel cooler
at $60 can plug into your car's DC adapter
or a wall outlet if you need to keep it in a garage
or elsewhere.
It would be wonderful to use something like this
on a long road trip
if you're transporting food from an Aldi
that's nowhere near where you live
or maybe a farmer's market.
With no segue whatsoever,
the Edison Bulb String Lights for 17 bucks
are available with the exposed filament.
Or gold dipped bulbs at $17,
I'm gonna go out onto a limb here
and speculate:
it's not real gold.
Anyhow, it looks wonderful for patio season
or a special backyard dinner.
Speaking of illumination,
how about an LED letter board,
$10,
and this would be wonderful
for transforming your typical family message board
into something that feels more like a statement.
I should do product marketing.
That was fun.
Anyhow, this would be great for a kid's room
but even for a DIY family movie night
you could put the movie title and the start time.
So many ways to make this work.
Chalkboard wall signs are $13.
This would be great for family planning.
That sounds kind of weird when I say it out loud,
but I mean more family scheduling
with different ways to implement this
from one season to the next.
I'm kind of losing it for 0.5 here
but this rattan serving tray is $25
and is one of the more eclectic items I've seen at Aldi.
Now you might be wondering,
"What would I offer on that rattan serving tray?"
And its most of 0.6.
Beginning with crispy stuffed shrimp,
maybe I would put this in a bowl
before putting it on the rattan serving tray,
but flavors include creamy garlic and spinach
or creamy jalapeno.
Six bucks.
Two new flavors of Mama Cozzi's flatbread
are available at Aldi,
and my mama,
Mama Rhonda,
always orders flatbreads
when we're at restaurants.
So ,the topping options
that include a classic
or barbecue chicken take might appeal to her.
$5 and 49 cents each.
Also, new at Aldi this September,
Bistro Grilled Cheese Tomato Soup
that's a more feisty take on a fall favorite
or a loaded potato soup
if you can't work your mind
around that whole bistro grilled cheese thing.
Risotto is available this month
in the form of butternut squash,
or pumpkin spice risotto,
at 36.9.
That sounds kind of weird to me.
I consider risotto to be a savory dish,
and the pumpkin spice kind of throws me off.
Anyhow, if you've tried this,
feel free to let me know.
And have any of you tried
or heard of Cloudies Cloud Bread?
I have never seen such a thing
but it's $6.
And just maybe you could warm up your cloud bread
with 0.7's debut of an oversized grill pan for nine bucks.
Although this is so oversized,
it might be better for a turkey
and all sorts of other fun holiday items.
The universal cooking lid you see right here for 10 bucks
is a personal favorite product for me.
If you've ever lost a lid,
or smashed and broken one on the floor,
and you need a quick replacement,
for 10 bucks you can get the job done.
Do you need a pizza pan?
If you do, you've got two options this month:
a large one for five bucks,
or two mini pizza pans for $5 as well.
Color options for both are black and gold.
This 11-inch comal pan is $9,
and it's actually something I use regularly,
but I did not know what it was called.
And don't worry, I googled the pronunciation
before I said it.
The griddle type pan you see right here
is phenomenal for searing meat,
toasting spices for tortillas, quesadillas,
or even pancakes.
The microwave omelet maker you see right here
is just five bucks.
This could be amazing if you are super short on time
and you desperately want an omelet
or even for someone without a stove
or an in a dorm room
or a cafeteria.
I have tried a microwave pasta maker in the past.
Not awful.
If that's not a selling point
I don't know what is!
On a different note,
if you've been impacted by furniture shortages,
or extreme shipping delays,
you're gonna enjoy 0.8,
where Aldi might have you covered
with some lovely furniture options,
including the single door accent cabinet for 53 bucks.
Or if you want something larger,
this accent cabinet for $59
is a two door version for just $8 more.
These are clearance prices,
so they could differ slightly at your local store.
This outdoor day bed at $170 is large in price
but also large in size,
so large that I had to flip my camera
to shoot the package properly.
But maybe the price is worth it
to look like this guy who has AirPods
and is smiling at his phone
like it's the new iPhone 14 Pro
but it isn't.
Anyhow, happiness,
there you go.
This gazebo with netting
is actually a more competitive price for 200 bucks,
given that this is made from a heavy duty steel frame,
it's water repellent,
and it has detachable netting.
For my next point,
before we have us a conversation on miracles,
I would've never imagined an item
that looks this expensive sold for only 12.99 at Aldi,
but these fake fur lined slip-on loafers
look like you'd be walking on a cloud
and not cloud bread,
#DADJOKE,
if you were in fact paying attention to 0.6.
For under $10, these ladies' open toe slippers
have all sorts of fun
and relaxing sayings on them,
including not today.
Vanity organizers for 15 bucks come in different formations,
including a hair care organizer.
This would be brilliant
if you have a hair dryer or a flat iron
with a slot made from a heat resistant silicone.
So smart,
the cosmetic organizer sibling,
at the same $15 price,
features three cosmetic compartments
and an easy pull drawer.
And finally, the hot tool holder,
made entirely of silicone,
would be for a flat iron, a curler,
and some other hair appliance I can't think of
that also gets hot.
For added traction and comfort,
these Cushion Grip Bath Mats are $5,
available in all sorts of colors
and can line pretty much any bathtub
or shower.
For my next point,
it's fall food finds and miracles!
Beginning with the apple pie at 5.89,
I classify this as perfectly sized,
not too big.
It would be lovely for a family,
and it has cinnamon in the recipe.
If you have not heard the word pumpkin enough
throughout this video,
this pumpkin sliced loaf for 3.49
includes eight slices.
What's that?
More pumpkin you say?
You want more pumpkin?
How about this four pack
of sparkling pumpkin spice cider for $4.
You are so welcome.
This Creamy Caramel Dip for 2.79 would be wonderful
for dipping fruit into.
This could transform both an apple slice
and your entire life if used correctly.
I once snapped a photo
of a sign outside a cupcake store
that said cupcakes are actually muffins
that believe in miracles.
But I've always wondered what would happen
if a cupcake believed in a miracle,
and in my opinion,
it would be in the form of a s'mores cupcake.
I know that was quite the lead up.
But this package of mini cupcakes for 3.29
gets you 12 mini miracles.
And now for the bonus section,
following an in-home haircut from my wife last night,
the 20-piece haircut kit for $20 right here
is worthy of inclusion at a buck a piece.
This is from the Visage brand.
It's color coded for visual indicators
of the different blade lengths
that comes with scissors and clippers.
A kid's weighted blanket,
perfect for back to school,
is $25,
available in both the five and eight pound weights
with a removable, washable cover.
And finally, olive tree plants,
which are quite trendy as I've learned
as I've seen this at different retailers
where shoppers are kind of flocking toward these.
These are $15.
They are faux
and they are nicely potted.
And that my friends brings us to the end of this video.
Thank you so much for watching.
I love you. Bye-bye.
