    It would be nice to know in which state you did that shopping.
    I live in NE PA, besides Aldi there is no store here with those prices. You are lucky.

    I really wish I could tell you what state but I can't. It is against Hubby's and my agreed upon internet rules.

    Yes, I know I'm lucky on prices
    We have walmart, a chain grocery store and a local independent grocery store in addition to Aldi's. And they all are within 4 miles of my home which is centrally located.

    Imagine, those are about the same prices we have here.

    I paid 1.19 for eggs at Aldi today but the salad dressing was cheaper than yours. 1.19. Maybe because it was the light fit and active? I bought the Caesar salad mix instead of the spinach because it was 99 cents.

    No, it was the fit and active one. Their other brand but it was a special purchase as it was a more exotic flavor Miso Mandarin.

    I don't remember seeing Caesar salad mix ( I didn't look though) Your little salad mix ( bagged salad) is priced at 99 cents unless it is on special.

    love seeing what is happening elsewhere in the world!! I try to chuckle at our prices - because they are so ridiculous!!
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
