With over 312,000 votes, ALDI Australia’s shoppers came out in full force to declare their most loved ALDI products in The People’s Picks Awards 2024.
Across eight categories, ALDI shoppers shared the items they believed were the best of the best, resulting in a cheat sheet of the products every shopper should pop in their trolley.
The winning items of the customer voted awards reveal that convenience is a key motivator for Aussies’ grocery habits, as shoppers continue to opt for high-quality, low-cost items that can be ready in a heartbeat.
ALDI Australia’s Shopping Expert, Kylie Warnke, said: “Luckily for ALDI shoppers, they never have to pick between saving time with a convenient delicious option, or sticking to their budget, as these customer-voted favourites do both with prices as low as $2.09.
It’s always exciting to see what products get the tick of approval from our shoppers year after year, and which ones win favour to jump onto the podium for the first time. Whether they are an old favourite or a newcomer, ALDI shoppers know they are guaranteed to find high-quality, family-favourite items at amazing prices on the winners list.
This year, we’ve had some returning favourites come out on top once again, like the Seasons Pride Potato Gratin and the Di-San Laundry Soaker. Meanwhile some debut items took the stand like the Blackstone Gourmet Snack Co. Black Edition Deli Style Potato Chips Truffle & Olive Oil and the Ready, Set… Cook! Marinated Lamb Steaks.”
Without any further ado, the list of winners for ALDI’s The People’s Picks Awards 2024 are:
Best Newcomer:
Blackstone Gourmet Snack Co. Black Edition Deli Style Potato Chips Truffle & Olive Oil 175g, $3.49
Kylie says, “Don’t be fooled, these potato chips are no ordinary snack. With their truffle and olive oil twist, they are a sure-fire way to be the hit of any party (even if that is a party of one binging a TV series at home!). At only $3.49, it’s never been easier or more affordable to have a boujee snack on a budget.”
Certified Gold:
Di-San Pre Wash Stain Remover 750ml, $2.09
Kylie says, “Like many other Australians, I swear by the Di-San range for all my cleaning and laundry needs. The Pre-Wash Stain Remover takes the chore out of laundry and is a guaranteed fix-it for the toughest of stains.”
The BBQ Boss:
Ready, Set… Cook! Marinated Lamb Leg Steaks with Rosemary and Mint, $25.99 per kg
Kylie says, “These 100% Australian Lamb Leg Steaks are a wonderfully convenient option to have flavourful lamb without the hassle and time needed to prepare a marinade. Whether you’re serving it up for a family BBQ at home or venturing out to a park or beach for some summer socialising, these steaks are a great get-and-go option.”
The Socialite:
Urban Eats Greek Spinach & Cheese Spanakopita 750g, $8.99
Kylie says, “Put your hand up if you’ve seen the Urban Eats Greek Spinach & Cheese Spanakopita on your socials, because I certainly have! The likes and comments speak for themselves and that’s why this favourite won in the Socialite category. A classic option for an easy, scoff-it-down dinner, and for only $8.99, you’re sure to be the heart-eyes emoji!”
Aussie Made Fave:
Broad Oak Farms RSPCA Approved Chicken Thigh Bulk, $12.99 per kg
Kylie says, “Up against some steep competition for Aussie-Made fave, the reliable Broad Oak Farms RSPCA Approved Chicken Thigh Bulk took out the win. At only $12.99 a kilo, they serve as a great protein option for families who want to bulk out their meals, without bulking out their budgets. From curries to pastas and everything in between, they’re a go-to in my freezer for weeknight meals.”
The Lunchbox Legend:
Snackers Market Colby Cheese & Crackers 4pk 100g, $3.99
Kylie says, “The Snackers Market Cheese & Crackers have won for a second year, proving just how much parents LOVE this lunchbox legend for their little legends. I can attest to these being a favourite in our household – for kids and parents alike!”
The Time Lord:
Seasons Pride Potato Gratin 4pk 400g, $4.99
Kylie says, “Another serial winner, the Seasons Pride Potato Gratin is holding onto its gold medal for another year. As the ultimate Time –Lord option, the gratin is the best way to spruce up a lazy dinner, and considering a four pack is only $4.99, its value stretches longer than the time it takes to cook.”
Partner in Grime:
Di-San Laundry Soaker 1kg, $3.49
Kylie says, “The Di-San Laundry Soaker has retained its title of Partner in Grime for the second year running, and it’s no surprise why! It is available in both Pro Oxy Ultra White or Pro Oxy and is a saviour when it comes to lifting tough stains.”
It’ll be even easier to pick up these top eight items in stores as each product’s shelf label will be crowned with ‘The People’s Picks’ badge, so customers know which ones are the champions of the shelves.
