Visiting an Aldi store can be a bit of a treasure hunt, but sometimes the grocery gods smile in your favor. Such is the case for excited shoppers who recently discovered jars of Nescafé Instant Espresso Gold priced for under $8. These Aldi deals are often subject to availability and can vary from store to store, but for observant buyers ready to grab a product when they see it, snagging instant coffee can result in serious money saved. 

Nescafé Instant Espresso Gold can help coffee lovers get tasty drinks into mugs immediately, as spoonfuls mixed with water can be quickly stirred and doctored up with whatever sweeteners and add-ins you prefer. Without having to brew a shot, the smooth taste of espresso is yours and ready to enjoy. As an added bonus, one jar of Nescafé's instant product can equal up to 50 cups of coffee. If you consider how much it would cost to buy these separate coffee orders from a store, you can understand how you're making a thrifty purchase.

Just because this coffee is made instantly doesn't mean it skimps out on flavor. "Tried the Nescafé Gold Instant Espresso this morning and it did not disappoint! I think I like it better than my blonde espresso beans ground fresh from my espresso machine," wrote a lover of the stuff on Facebook. "Fr I'm selling my espresso machine because of this group," added another. Shoppers who have tasted Nescafé's instant product consistently rave about the coffee, describing it as the kind of ingredient that offers a lighter, slightly sweet taste of espresso, complete with crema — no barista training required. "I am so impressed with the flavor of this instant coffee, I was so surprised," admitted a pleased buyer.

While you're browsing Aldi's aisles, you may also want to keep your eyes open for 32-fluid-ounce bottles of Barissimo's flavored coffee creamers, priced at just over $3, or vanilla or caramel-flavored coffee syrups to spruce up your home creations. Barissimo also produces flavored cold foam for $3.65 in 13-fluid-ounce containers. After your next shopping trip to Aldi, you may not need to visit a coffee shop for a while. For those who head to an Aldi store and come up short, the same 3.5-ounce jar of Nescafé Gold runs for just under $10 at Walmart.
