And don’t these pita chips look interesting? Which would you choose: The caramelized onion & balsamic, or the gorgonzola?

Handy items for your home

Moving on to a few Finds for your home, these Easy Home folding step stools are so, so handy! Well, OK: That’s maybe only if you’re short like me, but I keep mine accessible all the time to let me reach tall cupboards and shelves. It folds up and slides away quite nicely. These step stools were $6.99 last year, $7.99 this year, but inflation catches up to us all eventually…

Other useful home-related Finds in this week’s ad include:

• Easy Home mini sewing kit, $4.99
• Huntington Home 29 liter flexible tub, $4.99

• Huntington Home shower curtain liner, $6.99
• ALDI collapsible box bag, $5.99
• Skylite rolling duffel, $19.99
• Welby memory foam knee cushion or any position pillow, $9.99
• Huntington Home queen or king 7 piece bedding set, $39.99
• Huntington Home 8 piece washcloth set, $3.99

$3.79 is actually a decent price for a nice pill organizer like this. I also have one of the mini sewing kits from last year, which keeps everything on hand for quick jobs.

• Huntington Home 2 pack satin pillowcases, $5.99
• Easy Home damage free hooks, $3.99
• Easy Home felt pads or nail felt pads set, $4.99

Some people swear by these satin pillowcases to keep their kids’ hair from getting tangled overnight!

The lens cleaning wipes are also super handy for cell phone screens and more, and $3.69 is a great price for a large 100 ct box.

Fall and Halloween candy

Candy, candy, candy… I can’t let you go. Because, how adorable are these Choceur Belgian chocolate pumpkins? $2.99 a box this week, and you can also look for Halloween candy:

ALDI stocks various other name-brand Halloween candy for trick-or-treaters, too, but you’ll often get a better deal watching for sales + coupons at your local grocery and drugstores.

Speaking of candy and candy-adjacent special buys, Lunch Buddies Halloween fruit flavored snacks are also back this week at $4.95 per 44 ct box.

Fave recipes with this week’s Finds

Last, but not least: Let’s get cooking, shall we? I was so glad to see Tuscan Garden tortilla strips back on the shelf today — at just $1.29 a bag, these easily jazz up everything from salads to soup. Try yours on this easy salsa verde chicken soup, or to top this shrimp taco salad recipe.

Thin sliced boneless pork chops are also back in this week’s ad, and you can pick up a family pack at $2.99 a pound. Cook your chops as broiled Parmesan pork chops & broccoli, or enjoy them in some pork & pepper fajitas.
