What You need for Pumpkin Cookies
ALDI and Instacart have teamed up to make it possible to get your favorite products without ever having to leave home! This really couldn’t have been easier for me to make my first order for groceries online, ever. In only a few minutes, I had everything I needed in my cart.
Imagine how excited I was when I got a text saying Crystal was doing my shopping for me!!! It took me a while to figure out it was a text from Instacart. When I clued into what was happening, I immediately fell in love with Crystal. When Crystal showed up just a little over an hour at my house with my groceries, I almost kissed her. ha!! It was like Christmas!
I’m totally addicted to shopping online at ALDI now. If you’ve never shopped at ALDI, read my post all about it here where I share 10 great things to buy at ALDI.
To help shoppers save money, the store carries mostly ALDI exclusive brands, with a few national brands mixed in. It’s one of my favorite places to shop and I’m saving money and time. YAY!
