The 2020 video I used as a reference: https://youtu.be/qK8YTnxAPNo?si=YmUGPJWWL9DLXu86

I came across a video I made in October of 2020 comparing prices of common grocery items we purchase between Walmart and Aldi. Back then, Aldi beat Walmart by about 12% on the 10 grocery items I compared. I’m going into Walmart and Aldi again to check the prices on those same items here in the spring of 2026 to see how much (or even IF) they have risen, and whether Aldi is still the better deal for groceries over Walmart!
