Mum's genius way of shopping at Aldi that customers can't believe they never thought of

A savvy shopper has discovered a clever loophole to getting cheap groceries every week at Aldi.

The bargain retailer is renowned for its low prices and ever-changing product range, having even been named the UK’s cheapest supermarket countless times.

Now, one shopper has found a way to guarantee getting your hands on cheap groceries every week, by shopping in a unique way, reports the MEN.

Enter your postcode to find the latest deals near you:

Posting on the Aldi Shoppers UK Facebook page, the shopper wrote: "I’m not sure how many people realise this, but each week Aldi publish a basket of shopping for its marketing campaign to compare with other stores.

"Find the ad and you can click on the terms and conditions and get the shopping list as a pdf.

"It is usually a week's meals for a family of four for around £45 and it makes the most of limited time offers and specialbuys. It also corresponds with their recipe list online.”

She added: "Usually that weeks meals are at the top but if you want an alternative (this week I swapped out whole chicken for pork joint) you can just put ‘pork’ into search on website, select ‘recipes’ instead of the default, which I think is ‘in store’ and you can track down the recipes they use.

"So this week I used a list they published a few weeks ago, but I could still track down the menu by searching on ingredients - we are looking forward to chicken enchiladas, veg tart, seafood paella, cod, sweet potato fries and mango and just enjoyed excellent roast pork which will also do sandwiches for work. De nada!"

This week, Aldi also announced that it has extended its delivery trial to Liverpool, with the city’s Smithdown Road store now available on Deliveroo for shoppers wanting to give it a try.

There are plans to roll the service out further in the coming weeks should the trial prove successful.
