If German discount superstore Aldi has popped up in your neighborhood in recent years, consider yourself lucky. Whether you’re already a super-fan or have yet to visit for the first time, you’re in for a treat. With budget groceries and seasonal snacks galore, Aldi’s also known for its weekly (and monthly) drops of new items, including home decor, holiday finds, and, my personal favorite, storage gems. And hitting stores this week are a handful of organizers you’re going to want to grab before they’re gone (which usually happens within a few days) — these are just a few of our favorites.

This chic new storage basket with built-in handles is the missing puzzle piece to your kitchen’s storage conundrums. Choose from black or white with a bamboo lid, and note that both have small hole cutouts all around for a touch of extra texture (and so it’s a little easier to see what’s inside!). The basket is about 14 inches by 10 inches by 8 inches — perfect for atop cabinets, inside your pantry, or under your sink.

Consider all your fridge storage problems solved! These $5 clear plastic bins come in five different super-smart varieties: small fridge tray, large fridge tray, can organizer, egg tray, and a seltzer can organizer. You might just want to pick up all five if you see them in-store (before they sell out!) for a fridge full of easy-to-grab convenience.

Choose from an expandable spice rack, a stackable shelf, or a two-tier turntable — all three bamboo organizer options are sure to upgrade your storage game. Whichever one you choose, the sleek look of the light wood color instantly adds some character to your space.

Sometimes the best storage solutions are also the simplest. These clear plastic bins are perfect for anywhere in your kitchen — your fridge, cabinets, pantry, you name it! Choose from a stacking bin, an all-purpose bin, or a two-pack of smaller insert bins, and you’ll get your items sorted in no time.
