Aldi opens Dumpling Truck, serving meals for less than $1.50

In this article (5)
Remember when you could get a whole takeaway meal for $1.50? We don’t either, but it sure beats paying $10 for a schooner and $12 for an iceberg lettuce.
With the cost-of-living soaring, you’d be forgiven for thinking you can’t afford a Friday night out. But just wait until you see the prices at Aldi’s new pop-up dumpling truck.
Opening for one night only, this Friday 12th August in the Aldi Bankstown Central car park on Chapel Rd, the pop-up dumpling truck will be dishing out servings of six takeaway dumplings for just $1.44.
When you break down the prices, that’s 25c per prawn gyoza and 23c per chicken dumpling. Which will allow you to feed a family of four from just $5.76.
The Urban Eats® dumplings include fan fave prawn gyoza and chicken dumplings, a new addition to the supermarket chain’s frozen food range.
“At a time when consumers are feeling the pinch, it’s rewarding to provide an option for people to still enjoy their Friday night rituals when they shop with us,” said Frozen Food Buying Director, Andrew King.
“The ALDI Dumpling Truck demonstrates how good food doesn’t have to hurt your pocket. You can dish up quick, delicious and affordable Friday dinners at home for less than $1.50 a serve!”
The Aldi dumpling truck will be located at Aldi Bankstown Central on Chapel Rd this Friday 12th August from 5pm-7pm, while stocks last. Cards only, no cash accepted. (And before you get any shady ideas, there’s a maximum of 4 serves per person.)
