Sound the Alarm—Aldi's August Finds Are Here!

We love when we get a sneak peek at the amazing things about to hit Aldi shelves—and the August drop is finally here!

This month our favorites include tasty convenience foods to make weeknight suppers a little easier, a spiked lemonade for sipping by the pool, plus a few gluten-free and keto-friendly products. And because summer is winding down (sigh), we added a few bonus buys that are perfect for back-to-school shopping!

As always, we've included a release date and price for each product so you know when to start stalking those Aldi shelves (and how much you need to add to your shopping budget). And as Aldi fans know, you've gotta get there quickly because Aldi Finds disappear quickly!

What Are Aldi Finds?

Faithful Aldi shoppers know the store doesn't do sales like other chains. They offer everyday low prices, weekly specials and their Aldi finds. These are items added to the shelves every Wednesday that are limited and sell out fast! Everything from specialty foods to home decor and more can be found on the Aldi finds list.

What Is the Best Day to Shop at Aldi?

While other grocery stores might have a particular day of the week that appears to be better to shop, Aldi makes no secret of theirs. For the best deals, new produce and meat prices, and Aldi specials, Wednesday is the magical day. Go early too because obsessed Aldi fans (like me!) rush to the store first thing in the morning for the best selection.
