ALDI Finds for the week of 1/11/23 include Valentine’s Day treats & candles, organizational items, fleece-lined leggings, organic grass-fed ground beef, and gluten free egg rolls. Check out this week’s picks below, and let me know what you want to Find!
Let’s start with Valentine’s treats this week — I mean, are you even thinking about Valentine’s Day yet, or are you still too busy recovering from the holidays? On the bakery side (or on endcaps by the registers), you can look for two-bite Valentine’s Day mini cupcakes for $3.89, Lofthouse Valentine’s frosted sugar cookies for $3.95, or Valentine’s fudge brownies (see price in store).
On the candy side, so many choices:
- Sour Patch Kids or Reese’s miniatures heart, $5.00
- Choceur mood bars, $1.39
- Merci Finest Selection chocolates, $5.98
- Choceur chocolate heart box, $3.99
- Choceur big box of Valentine’s chocolates, $9.99
- Choceur Valentine’s mini chocolates, $2.99
- Specially Selected chocolate truffle hearts, $3.99
- Ferrero Rocher, $5.28
- Various name brand bagged chocolates, $3.48-$5.28
Do remember, though, that name-brand candy and treats aren’t generally cheaper at ALDI, although these seasonal products can be useful for one-stop shopping.
Case in point, Betty Crocker Valentine’s Day fruit roll-ups are $5.98 at ALDI (priced the same at Walmart right now), and Welch’s Valentine’s Day fruit snacks 28 ct are $4.98, while they’re $4.99 at Target. Just because something is sold at ALDI, doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a deal.
ALDI’s Choceur mood chocolate bars, though, crack me up. I mean: They’re like conversation hearts, but edible!
As always, both advertised and unadvertised ALDI prices can vary by store and by region. Here are more of the top ALDI Finds for the week of 1/11/23. (You may also Find some on 1/8/23 in Sunday ad markets, or if your store tends to put products out early.)
Top ALDI Finds this week
Beyond the Valentine’s Day treats mentioned above, here are thirteen more advertised food Finds this week, forty new non-Food Finds, and some brand new unadvertised and/or seasonal Finds to look for.
Thirteen new ALDI food Finds

- Simply Nature organic chicken sausage 12 oz, in pesto or tomato basil mozzarella, $4.99

- Simply Nature organic grass fed ground beef 85/15 family pack 4 lbs, $17.96

Most of the food items in this week’s ad are Valentine’s Day Finds, but we at least have a few other new things to look for.
The gluten free egg rolls come in 9 oz three packs, which is a pretty small box for the price — but gluten free always comes with a premium.
The organic grass fed ground beef family pack is a couple bucks cheaper this time around, though. At $4.49/lb, it’s actually not much more expensive than ALDI’s conventional ground beef, but better quality — so you might want to stock up at this price!

This wrap organizer can be wall mounted! If I had a good place to put this in my kitchen, it would be pretty tempting…
And the pop art candles are pretty amusing, don’t you think?!
What’s the difference between a utility tray and a boot tray? I’m not sure, but apparently I’ve been using an ALDI Easy Home utility tray for shoes for a while now. (I think, in retrospect, that the “boot tray” from last month might have been a little larger and more heavy duty.)
Fleece-lined leggings? Why yes, Midwestern winters do require these things…
Non-advertised and seasonal Finds
Keep an eye out for a new “Eating Smart” endcap containing various Simply Nature items. (At my store, this has replaced the seasonal charcuterie endcap.) Find both returning faves and newer products on this one.
Simply Nature PB&J Bites are back, for instance, at $4.99 per 6-pack bag. Also returning: Simply Nature crunchy peanut butter spread with chia and flaxseeds, $2.89 per 16 oz jar.
