The People’s Picks Return for 2023 with 2 NEW categories!

30 August, 2023

Calling all ALDI shoppers: vote on your favourite ALDI finds and enter to win a share in $10,000 worth of ALDI gift cards

ALDI’s annual customer voted awards, The People’s Picks, is back with the supermarket calling on customers to have their say in selecting Australia’s top ALDI products for 2023.

From August 30, customers can vote for their must-have ALDI items across eight categories via this link. Not only will voters get the chance to spotlight their most coveted products, by submitting a pick, each voter will automatically go into the draw to win $10,000 worth of ALDI gift cards (10 x $1000 ALDI gift cards up for grabs).

ALDI Australia’s Shopping Expert, Kylie Warnke, said: “The People’s Picks is a fantastic way to share all your top products and best-kept secrets. Think of every fakeaway meal that cuts down prep time at dinner, to the secret laundry hero that keeps clothes fresh, or the kids’ favourite lunchbox snack they can’t get enough of – don’t gatekeep, the rest of Australia wants to get the most out of their weekly shop too! With two new categories this year, we can’t wait to see what our shoppers are loving and see what comes out on top, so get voting!”

Some of the nominated products in this year’s awards are already repeat winners, including the Greek style Urban Eats Spanakopita, the deliciously sweet Choceur Caramel Filled Milk Chocolate, and Aussie-made Essential Health Paw Paw Ointment.

This year, ALDI has introduced TWO new categories to the mix: The Socialite and The Aussie Made Fave. Excitingly, there are four industry award-winning products in The Aussie Made category, including Lazzio Medium Dark Coffee Beans, The Olive Tree Australian Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Tamova Vodka and even a $12.99 Barossa Valley Shiraz.
