Nearly one-third of products on ALDI shelves every day are now priced lower than they were last year

• Beginning Sept. 23, ALDI is investing on top of its everyday low prices, saving shoppers an estimated $86 million.

• Customer favorites Kirkwood chicken breast family packs and Honeycrisp apples are at their lowest prices in years.

BATAVIA, Ill., Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting today, ALDI is helping shoppers stretch their grocery budgets even further this fall, delivering an estimated $86 million in savings through additional price investments on the season's fresh favorites.¹ With the addition of the lower prices, nearly one-third of the everyday in-store assortment² at ALDI is priced lower than last year.

"At ALDI, value is a year-round promise, not a promotion," said Scott Patton, ALDI Chief Commercial Officer. "Customers trust us to help them make the most of their grocery budget, and we never stop looking for ways to run our business more efficiently so we can pass along savings. As shoppers head into fall routines and healthier habits, we're making additional investments to lower prices on our better-for-you favorites, building on the value customers already see throughout our stores."

Newly reduced items include Autumncrisp grapes, Bartlett pears, Brussels sprouts, butternut and spaghetti squash, fresh herbs and garlic, French beans along with a wide range of apples and potatoes. Honeycrisp apples are priced at $1.99 per pound, 35% lower than last year and their lowest everyday price in more than five years. Kirkwood chicken breast family packs are $1.99 per pound, the lowest everyday price since 2022. These reductions build on hundreds of items where prices are already lower than they were in 2025, spanning products like ground and organic whole bean coffee, an assortment of mixed nuts and dried fruit, everyday essentials like paper towels, and some of our most loved Fan Favorites items like Elevation Ready to Drink protein shakes and Choceur chocolate.

ALDI offers the lowest prices of any national grocery store, saving shoppers an estimated $10.2 billion.³ That everyday value is the baseline at ALDI, and a key part of what continues to fuel its growth. Now with more than 2,600 stores nationwide, America's fastest growing grocer⁴ continues to expand its footprint to bring affordable, quality groceries to more communities while filling carts for less.
