Discover the essentials: Why these five ALDI products top a mum's shopping list

Sometimes, life can get too chaotic and we all find ourselves chasing a simpler way of living. While groceries can get complicated, we can make things easier by making a list of the essentials and sticking to it when shopping.

One post on social media opened the discussion: ‘What is everyone's top five products that they only get from ALDI and nowhere else?’

A savvy mum who loves shopping at ALDI shared her own top five must-buy items for the week in the post.


This mum has been visiting ALDI for years and considers herself an expert on the brand’s range, so who better to ask for tips about the products you should be stocking your pantry with?

Here are the five items this ALDI super shopper will always buy from the budget supermarket:

1. Deli Originals Fresh Hommus Dip 1kg, $4.99

The Deli Originals Hommus Dip received positive reviews from consumers, with others claiming this is the only hommus they eat. People shared their sentiments on Choice.com:

‘Since I first tried this product, ALDI Hommus, I prefer it over any other that I've tried,’ a reviewer wrote.

A second said, ‘We have been buying ALDI hummus for ages and we prefer it to any of the other brands we’ve purchased. Great value for money!’

If you need more encouragement to add this hommus dip into your weekly shop, Consumer Experts at Choice gave the dip an impressive 78 per cent rating in their tests.

2. Beautifully Butterfully Caterer’s Selection Buttery Spread 450g, $4.99

The mum also recommends this 1kg butter spread from the retailer. Canstar Blue rated this product top 2 on their ‘Best Rated Butter’ list, receiving five stars for value for money and packaging convenience.

3. Forresters Natural Mixed Nuts 500g, $10.99

Another one on this mum’s list is these mixed nuts from ALDI. It’s a combination of cashews, almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, pecan nuts, and macadamias. Other ALDI fans agree that this is a winner when it comes to snacking.

One consumer shared on Product Review: ‘Best ever mixed nuts, I only wish they were 100% Australian.’

4. Food Envy Tiramsu 500g, $5.99

If you’re a fan of decadent desserts, it looks like you’ll want to save some space in your fridge and freezer for this tiramisu by Food Envy. One customer shared their review on OzBargain, writing: ‘The ingredients, taste and quality are amazing for the price.’

5. Bakehouse Light Rye Loaf 550g, $3.29

Bakehouse Light Rye Loaf is a must-have for the health-conscious shopper, with shoppers saying it’s by far one of ALDI’s best bread products on offer. A shopper shared their love this loaf in a social media comment, writing: ‘LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! My whole family eat it and love it. Great bread at a fabulous price.’

The discussion quickly gained attention, with some chiming in with their own top five items.

Some found it hard to limit their choices to five and added more products like Power Force Premium Liquid Bleach, Lyttos Greek Style Natural Yogurt 2kg, and Atlas Kill & Protect High Performance Crawling Insect Spray.


Now, here’s the best part–these products, plus thousands of the retailer’s other items, including fresh fruit and veg can all be ordered online and delivered straight to your door as part of ALDI’s Click & Collect service.

If you’re keen on doing all or part of your regular shopping online, from the comfort of your own home, head to ALDI’s website and sign up to access the service in your area.

Good on you, I am not in a Community but a rental unit. I get support services once a week from My Aged Care and they clean and take me places if I need it. I have a neighbour upstairs who is on NDIS and gets support services 3 times a day and while I am sure he needs it, why is their not more money in Aged Care services? Just a thought.
The thing is you can only access NDIS up to the age of 65 if you are a new applicant. For 65 and over, you have the option of the Commonwealth Aged Care System. For those over 65 and on NDIS, you can transition over to the Commonwealth Aged Care System or stay with NDIS. Don't forget! You must be under the age of 65 to qualify if you're a new starter.

Source: I worked with NDIA for a few months processing new and existing applicants.

Just realised this has bugger all to do with ALDI! :oops:
