What are you picking up?!

ALDI Fall Finds, September 2021

Let’s start with one of everyone’s favorites: Baker’s Corner 100% pure canned pumpkin at $.85 a can. Last year we saw a canned pumpkin shortage, but this year seems more promising: My store was fully stocked today. You can also look for Baker’s Corner 30 oz pumpkin pie mix, $2.29 a can.

More pantry Fall Finds

In addition to canned pumpkin and pumpkin pie filling, Find more fall favorites for your pantry throughout the store. More seasonal baking items are out, too, and here’s what I saw today:

• 32 oz Baker’s Corner light corn syrup, $3.49
• Baker’s Corner corn starch, $.89
• Cherry Man maraschino cherries, $1.69
• Baker’s Corner apple pie filling, $1.59

We should see more baking Finds and sales popping up very soon!

Heart-and-body warming fall drinks are also creeping back onto the shelves. Look for Barissimo pumpkin spice or maple flavored coffee: $3.49 for 12 ct K-Cups, and $3.29 for 12 oz ground coffee.

On a more chocolate-y note: Beaumont 8 ct hot cocoa mix is $1.49, and Beaumont 12 ct cocoa K-Cups will run you $3.89.

I also spotted 4 ct Boulder slow cooker liners at $1.49. (These don’t sport a seasonal tag, but I’m pretty sure they’re not always out at my store…)

Update: A week later these now have a new seasonal tag at my store and are $.10 more, at $1.59. 🙁

Refrigerated Fall Finds

Moving over to the refrigerated section (and speaking of chocolate-y notes…), of course we have to start with Bake House Creations sea salt caramel chocolate chunk cookie dough ($2.89 a package). I first made these a couple years ago (see my review!), and felt compelled to pick up a pack today to bring to a Labor Day BBQ tomorrow.

And are you SToKed for pumpkin cold brew coffee? $4.42 per 48 oz bottle.

Feeling more apple-ish? 52 oz Nature’s Nectar apple cider is also back in store, at $2.89 a container. (Or look for the 128 oz jugs of apple cider, $3.75. At my store, the big jugs were in the refrigerated section by produce; the 52 oz bottles were by the refrigerated OJ.)

Fall Finds in the produce section

Beyond fall squash, look for more seasonal Finds in the produce section. Three packs of Affy Tapple caramel apples are $2.59 (but wait to buy these, they do go tend to go on sale for $.99-$1.49).

Caramel dip is also back out; but my store didn’t have price tags up yet.

Again, these are just a few seasonal Finds I spotted this first week of September 2021. Let me know what you start Finding on the shelf at your own ALDI! Is it starting to feel like fall?
