One shopper went so far as to say she found her fave products were "far superior" to other grocery stores.

"All the cleaning products are far superior to Woolies and Coles and half the price," she said.

Aldi’s cleaning products received several recommendations, including the store’s DiSan pre-wash stain remover, which has a huge cult following.

“Laundry products and cleaning products plus the lactose-free milk is way superior to Woolies and Coles own brand, and Italian style tuna in the yellow can is the best, the can is actually all tuna.”

The post revealed that the most popular overall products include the huge selection of Aldi's award-winning cheeses, with shoppers raving about the store's Emporium branded Persian feta cheese and Gorgonzola dolce.

The product has long been a favourite amongst shoppers, with many sharing how they dish them up.

“I cook these in the slow cooker with a couple of drops of water. Amazing!!!” One person said in a separate post about the popular product.

“They are delicious. I do mine in the oven covered on 160 for about an hour and a half. So tender,” added another.

Shoppers said they loved sharing their fave buys and seeing what others loved to pick up too.

“I love these posts. I usually end up making a list of things to try,” one person wrote.

“Other things I love for quality and value are cleaning wipes, DiSan stain remover, laundry washing liquid, Aldi brand chunky dog food, cheeses (all of them!)... there’s many others but I need to stop!”
