Can anyone see anywhere they say when it takes effect? They don't say it on the official announcement either.

[–] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Would love to see that list of items.

[–] rodneyck@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Haven't found any list, but here it is noted a few items and timing;

When do Aldi's summer savings start?

Aldi's price cuts began June 5 and will be valid through Labor Day.

The price cuts will likely save shoppers about $100 million – similar to the amount of money shoppers collectively saved with reductions last year and more than the $60 million shoppers saved in 2023. What are some products at Aldi that will be less expensive?

Clancy’s: Chili Lime Potato Chips - was $1.89, is now $1.79. 
Friendly Farms: 2% Ultra-Filtered Milk – was $4.39, is now $3.89.
Millville: Protein Pancake Mix – was $3.79, is now $3.49. 
Mama Cozzi’s: Mini Pizza Bagels – was $6.29, is now $5.99. 
Summit: Popz Prebiotic Soda - was $1.59, is now $1.49.

It's funny those potato chips are mentioned in that article because I only tried them a couple weeks ago and I desperately want them again. 😁

The variations of people's taste fascinates me. Every time I've tried something that's chili lime flavored, it tasted so bad to me that I was paralyzed for a few seconds.

[–] xylol@leminal.space 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

you would hate mexico, I dont even know where so much chili and lime comes from but everything is automatically with chili and lime. I got a tepache and normally here the corner stands just have regular ol tepache but when we visited mexico I got one and was kind of bummed it was filled with chili and lime and not as quenching

Maybe actual chili and lime would taste better to me than the shit they throw on chips and the like. Like how artificial banana tastes like the worst flavor ever created in the universe and an actual banana tastes ok. But yeah, I'm not really hyped up to taste what you're describing.

[–] LiterallyLMAO@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I'm with you. I love chilis and limes, but the artificial lime flavor on chili lime flavored snacks tastes like froot loops to me.

The friendly farms milk went from 1/2 gallon (64 fl oz) -> 59 fl oz too it seems.

Which Aldi though. There are 2 Aldi companies. For instance, the Netherlands is covered by Aldi Nord. But there's also Aldi Süd.

Edit: so, it's Aldi USA

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It’s in the US, so it’s Aldi Süd. Aldi Nord owns Trader Joe’s in the US.

[–] 13igTyme@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Illusion of choice.

[–] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Got excited then. But it's only Aldi US.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)
