Produce
Dairy
Eggs
Cheeses
Cheap chips for kids lunches
Nuts
Ziplock bags
EVOO

My aldi and heb are only .5 mile apart, so I grab these staples on the way to HEB. Probably saves $40-$60 per trip.

everything is at a great price point, but stay away from the produce and most meats (though i'll buy a duck to smoke on occasion).

they have an excellent selection of cheeses and whatnot to make excellent charcuterie, which we often do. and some other stuff that'll suprise you.

take the time to walk the aisles slowly the first couple of times you go...guarantee you'll find some stuff you like.

Cheese and other charcuterie type items. The Three Cheese Vinaigrette near pickles/nuts/salad dressings. The red bag chicken tenders are supposed to be a favorite, but not something I’ve tried. Shaved beef for quesadillas or sandwiches is a better price there than Albertsons. Low carb/keto breads, crackers, etc.

Meat, bread, cheeses, Red bag frozen chicken (knockoff Chick-fil-A sandwiches), chocolate, random frozen items that rotate, their pizzas

Eta: I see comments about the meat not being good? I think their grass fed beef prices are unbeatable and taste better than any other competitors

Surprisingly, they have awesome salmon. I've gotten some of their steaks, too, and they're pretty good for the price.

Cured meats, cheeses, and some of their wines are good.

I d about 75% of our grocery shopping there. They finally added self-checkout at mine, and that used to be one of my big holdups from going there as the line for the one or two registers would be very long.

Their meat isn’t bad at all. Cheese, dairy, eggs are all standard and priced well.

Pretty much everything except beef. Sometimes the produce is iffy. Excellent value for cheese and charcuterie

I forgot this beer. It's their house german pilsner. Probably the cheapest import pilsner you can buy, and it's delicious. $5.99 for a 4-pack.
