Popular grocery store Aldi announced it is slashing prices on hundreds of items this summer to help customers combat "stubborn inflation," a press release said.
According to the release, the Illinois-based grocery store said the savings, which total $100 million, will take place through Labor Day, with select items on sale through July 10.
“We don’t want food prices to hold people back from getting together with friends and family or spending time outdoors this season," Dave Rinaldo, president at ALDI U.S., said in the release.
Many of the items ALDI plans reducing prices on were "seasonal must-haves," including picnic and BBQ items, travel-ready snacks and healthy options. A partial list of the more than 250 items on sale can be found below:
