(My only dumpster diving story...) :) That morning I found myself at 5:45 AM, standing outside Aldi in my workout clothes and doing a little dumpster dive. Not exactly the picture of myself I’d like to portray. Now don’t worry, there is (kind of?) a reason, but as hurried back in my car I thought to myself . . . Why on earth do I do this? I usually make a run to Walmart to price match the produce in the Aldi ad and stock up on milk once a week. Our Aldi doesn’t open until 8, and I like to beat the crowds when shopping by going on my way home from the gym in the morning. My normal pattern is to go exercise bright and early, swing by Aldi to pick up an ad (they always had a few out front in their carts, and my Walmart requires the ad to price match), and then head to Walmart for the deals. So clever of me, right??? Until this morning, when there was not a single Aldi ad in sight. (Apparently their cleaning crew did an awesome job of tidying up last night.) The only one that I could see was precisely 42 carts in, and as you Aldi shoppers know, to get to it would require me to use a quarter to un-lock 41 carts ahead of it when it was still dark outside. Not gonna happen. Read the rest of the story----> passionatepennypincher/2013/09/how-far-will-you-go-to-pinch-a-penny/
