[quote=Anonymous]We mostly shop at Aldi, but Aldi has not been immune from price increases, shrinkflation, or decreases in product quality. Mostly the latter two as they try to manage the first. We’ve had to make some adjustments in what we buy there. We supplement as needed with items on sale at other stores, shop Costco/BJs for good value items there, and we stock the freezer when there is a particularly good sale on meat. I find it helps to be flexible in meal planning and buy staples that can be used multiple different ways. I’ve gotten honest with myself that I don’t have the time or inclination to cook certain things from scratch, so while bagged dry beans are the cheapest, we buy cans because that is what I will actually use on a weeknight when I have 20 minutes to throw dinner together.
