Emporium Goat Cheese
Emporium Goat Cheese is a favorite of Karen Zerbini, founder of Supper Sanity. The Emporium Selection is Aldi’s specialty cheese house brand. Zerbini said it offers other specialty cheeses worth buying when shopping including Irish cheddar, Spanish Manchego and French brie.
While the Aldi website mentions “see price in store” on its website, Zerbini said she cannot find a better price in town. General prices begin at $4.99 for a 4-ounce log, but Zerbini has seen the logs priced at $3.99. In some instances, Instacart has even listed the delicious cheese at $2.45.

Organic Bagged Avocados
What makes purchasing fresh avocados at Aldi worth it is they are almost always ready to be eaten. Zerbini recommends purchasing avocados in netted bags over the loose ones as they tend to be slightly cheaper.
When comparing the prices of avocados between several stores, including Costco and Trader Joe’s, Flavor Feed found that Hass avocados averaged roughly $0.69 each, making them the best deal.
Southern Grove Mixed Nuts
Mixed nuts, especially the Southern Grove Mixed Nuts, are always worth the purchase when shopping at Aldi. Zerbini said the pricing for mixed nuts at Aldi is 15% to 20% lower than at other stores she shops at.
