Buy – German Beer
For those who prefer beer to wine, Aldi has got a great selection of these too. It’s not too surprising, after all, it is a German brand. The selection is not huge, but the beers they carry are high quality and very moderately priced. According to a reviewer on Kiplinger: “Its six-packs of Broegel Bock Beer go for $6.99, not bad for an imported beer. Brewed in Belgium, this bock scores a 3.8 on a scale of 5 as rated by Beer Advocate.”
Skip – Frozen Sushi
In general, sushi offered at grocery stores is not going to be the best quality. The next worst thing you could do is buy frozen sushi. As Aldi Nerd at Cheapism.com says: “If I lived somewhere rural where sushi joints were few and far between and I had a serious hankering for it, I may buy this. But I live less than a mile from a really delicious sushi restaurant and the frozen Fusia just doesn’t compare.”
