If You Like The $13 Aldi Dress, You’ll Love These Under $30 Finds

If inflation is forcing you to trim your fashion budget, these dresses will help you

The next time you’re picking up eggs at Aldi, you might want to check out the clothing aisle. A $13 sparkly cocktail dress on sale at ALDI had folks going crazy this holiday season. The dress caught the attention of Good Morning America, after shoppers raved about how it flatters all body types.

“It was just a fun piece of clothing,” said Jamie Miles of PassionatePennyPincher.com . “It was wearable by all body types,” she said. “They are not being exclusive and putting out something that only one body type can wear.”

I started to judge, but then I remembered that I buy both dresses and eggs at Target all the time and quickly shut my mouth. But the viral grocery dress got me thinking that there have to plenty of other great dresses out there that are less than $15. And if I upped the price to $30, I might find even more. And I was right. Whether you’re looking for something that shows off your curves or leaves a little more to the imagination, you can find a great dress on a budget. These are a few of my favorites.
