Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great week and have an even better weekend.
I don’t have much planned. I have some stuff to do to finally finish up my work certification (I’ve been working on this for OVER 2 years). So I plan on dedicating most of today to that. And then I plan on working on my blog a little bit too.
I have a giveaway today so you can just skip reading and scroll to the bottom if you’d like!
And as you can see, I finally brought “interesting searches” back to my Saturday posts. The first one is funny so that is the main reason why I brought them back 🙂

And on to the giveaway!
I’m sure most of you have heard of Aldi. I tend to shop there whenever I get the chance. The prices are great and I find that the quality is better than the grocery stores around where I live. I especially go to Aldi because their prices on fruits and vegetables are insanely cheaper than what I would find at my normal grocery store as well.
Today I have a great giveaway. Aldi has generously donated 2 gift certificates worth $25 each! Now as some of you know, $25 can be a lot of groceries at Aldi. I tend to spend around $50 there and can buy a lot of food.
There will be two winners, with each person winning a $25 gift certificate. Just enter via the Rafflecopter form below.
Thanks again Aldi for allowing me to have this giveaway!

Where did you find that Zombie Apocalypse shirt?! I searched several places and found similar shirts (same phrase), but I like the type-print/colors of this one the best! I will be PERFECT for my bf for x-mas!

I've actually never shopped at Aldi… The only time I went was to bail my husband out since he bought some groceries expecting to use his bank card but they don't accept them there and I happened to have cash. I keep meaning to go though! I hear tons of people love shopping there.

Love all the giveaways you have been posting!
I love Aldi because they have super low prices for a good quality of food for the price you are paying for. But I also save money on groceries at Target and other grocery stores using tons and tons of coupons!

I save money on groceries by using tons of coupons! I always shop at Aldi's when I am visiting my parents in Rhode Island — in fact, I will be back there for a month or two helping them out and this would be great to have!

great giveaway and I loveee aldis! I've been going there since I was little!
@UndercovrAngel says
I love the lower costs and the food products are just as good as you can find in most regular markets. With the store being smaller, you can get through the store, the checkout and back to your car faster than most other normal stores.
