OK, it’s a running joke here that I can’t afford to shop Aldi.  No coupons means everyday low prices are a rip off.  Having said that, the one thing I really like there is the frozen wild-caught salmon fillets.  A new Aldi opened nearby and we received a $5/30 card which I felt compelled to use.  Sacrifice a coupon?  Blasphemy around these parts.  Picked up 8 of the salmon ($3.99/each) and two bags of fresh cranberries (.74/each).  I’ll probably pick up more cranberries at Jewel, but I’d never seen them outside their protective plastic bags.  Total was $28+ after the coupon.  Now I’m set for the next 6-9 months (or longer, if Jewel has another kick-ass Gorton sale).

And by the way?  The place was packed!
