  "searchTerms": ["milk", "coffee"],

}

Search one word at a time

ALDI matches every word of a search on its own, so frozen pizza returns everything that matches frozen or pizza. Use the most specific single word (pizza), or read the department instead.

Choose stores only when the store matters

Without stores you get the price aldi.com.au shows before a store is chosen (the same as store G452, Glenmore Park NSW, on all 3,337 products we compared). Store prices differ on a few lines: on 2026-10-28, 66 of 3,146 shared products had a different price at Perth (G094), 29 at Melbourne (G330) and Adelaide (G037); the range differs too (3,272 products at Perth, 3,333 at Melbourne). Each store you add repeats every source, so 2 stores x 100 products = 200 rows.

Special Buys: dates and themes

ALDI announces Special Buys by on-sale date (Wednesday and Saturday drops). latest is the drop on sale now, upcoming the announced ones, all every date ALDI lists. Add specialBuysThemes to read only some themes; every Special Buys row carries its theme in specialBuyThemes. Stock levels exist only for Special Buys already on sale.
