Why this photo of groceries from Aldi has Aussies praising the supermarket: 'I was impressed'

Aussies have praised Aldi after a customer revealed the very affordable cost of a large haul of groceries that would last them months.

The Melbourne shopper shared a photo of their impressive buy to Reddit on Sunday revealing they did not normally shop at the German supermarket chain.

They were immediately converted after spending just $160 during their visit.

'I was pretty impressed by the amount of different proteins I was able to get for a good price,' they wrote.

The haul included a bag of eight pieces of salmon fillets, a bag of Basa fish fillets, a bag of raw prawns, a box of tempura battered fish, prosciutto wrapped chicken breast, a bulk pack of chicken thighs and mince.

Yoghurt, feta, chocolate, almond milk and toilet paper were also spotted among the mix.

The shopper added they didn't buy many fruit and vegetables, as they purchase them from a local market, which normally costs them between $10 and $15.

Incredibly, the shopper said the groceries would last a long time.

'I live by myself and the meat/fish is probably enough to last a couple of months of dinners,' they wrote.

'Obviously would need to top up fruit/veg and staples as they run out during that time.'

Many agreed the discount supermarket was better value than Coles and Woolworths, with some saying they only shop at Aldi now.

'Only place to shop,' one wrote.

'Amazing,' another said.

A third shopper added: 'I'm an Aldi convert, my husband and I were spending roughly $300+ a week at Coles and with Aldi we're now lucky to hit $200 a week.'

'I swear I get a basket of groceries from Woolworths/Coles and it's $100.'

'Me and my partner did a weekly shop today, $59. Aldi is so good if you can cook the right meals!' another wrote.

'Went to Aldi for the first time today, grabbed a bunch of meat and some ingredients for meal prep and was very surprised when it came under $70!' one said.

'I reckon the same shop at Coles would've cost $100-$120. Needless to say from now I'll on I'll be a regular.'

The post comes after cost-of-living pressures are at an all-time high for Aussies.

A survey earlier in the year found one-in-five Australians had a second job to make ends meet, with a further 18 per cent doing more overtime so they can afford the basics.

Adding to their frustration, the Reserve Bank kept the cash rate untouched at a 12-year high of 4.35 per cent on November 5.

The Reserve Bank has also warned it could still raise rates, despite borrowers in Canada, New Zealand, the European Union, U.S. and UK already getting some relief this year.
