Disclosure: I’m partnering with ALDI on this blog post and giveaway. Read how you can enter to win a $50 ALDI gift card and a signed copy of my book, Body Kindness, at the bottom of this post.

Save Money on Easter with these ALDI finds

It’s almost time to fill those Easter baskets! Are you ready? If you don’t have quite everything you need this year, why not save yourself a little money and the crazy last-minute running around with some help from ALDI.

Easter is a special day and it’s all about creating delicious and memorable moments with those we care about most. Shopping at ALDI is an easy and affordable way to add that special touch to your Easter baskets, saving you enough to double up on the goodies, and can cost you up to 50 percent* less than other grocery stores.

*Based upon a price comparison of comparable products sold at leading national retail grocery stores.

You can find everything for this Easter basket at ALDI for a limited time while supplies last.

ALDI-fy your Easter Basket for under $15

    • Choceur  Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny Bar – $0.99
    • Specially Selected Milk or Dark Chocolate Covered Butter Cookies – $1.69

Aside from the candy we all know kids love, you can fill eggs with Southern Grove Yogurt Covered Raisins and even baby carrots and grapes for little kids to enjoy with the Easter Bunny.

I also like to give my kids experiences as gifts so filling eggs with activities like movie tickets, planting a garden together or a loving note from mom and dad. These types of gifts make everyone happy.

    Last weekend I got my husband and son Choceur milk chocolate bunnies for Easter at Aldi. Shhh! I’ve got them hidden. I hope they will still be in their hiding place on Easter morning. They have a way of finding things I hide.

    We will be celebrating Easter all weekend starting with an underwater egg hunt at our local YMCA! We will share a meal with my parents on Saturday and my husbands parents on Sunday. And of course that means 2 egg hunts with our cousins??

    Easter Sunrise service with yummy breakfast prepared by the hosting local church and a spirit filled praise service later in the day to celebrate the Easter gift. Then time with as much of my family as I can. Cherish it all!

    Am I the only one not knowing what we are doing for Easter yet. It just somehow crept up on me this year and no plans have been made. So hopefully I’ll come up with some way to make it memorable.

    My son’s “Noni” will be coming in to town to celebrate with us, so we’ll have a ham dinner at home on Saturday evening and then out to brunch on Sunday. We’ll take the little guy (4.5 y/o) for pics with the Easter bunny, dye eggs, and have an egg hunt in the back yard (using plastic eggs filled with candy and trinkets; the dyed eggs will go into salads, etc.).

    The biggest way Easter is going to be memorable this year is that it’s the first Easter with babies! We’re doing a family weekend and everyone of course is most excited about my 5 month old and my sister’s almost-one year old. May try a very scaled down egg hunt. 😉 Happy Easter!

    We have 7 kiddos, ranging in age from 18yo-4yo. My 18yo daughter loves to fill the colorful plastic eggs with candy, and then she makes a trail for each little kiddo in a different color to follow from their bedrooms. They really look forward to it every year. She’s such a good big sister!

    Our granddaughter has braces now so we are filling her basket with a few candies but mostly mixed nuts, Aunt Annie’s organic bunny shaped cheese crackers and pretzels and some dried fruit. Along with these, we’re tucking in a lot of hair bands, clips, bows, and such. Not to mention the coloring book, crayons, blank book, and stickers.

    And the biggest bunny in the world which we grabbed after Easter last year for only $7. Best time to buy stuffed bunnies is after Easter for sure. 🙂
