We Gave a Pro Organizer $25 — Here’s What She Bought at Aldi

As a professional organizer, I am always on the hunt to find stylish-yet-functional products that can help bring order to my clients’ homes. I was pleasantly surprised to find three options when I was shopping at my local Aldi with a budget of $25. If you are looking to organize your office, playroom, or storage space, you’ll want to check out each of these products which came out to just a little over $25 — by 95 cents, to be exact!

If you need to get your office supplies in order, the Huntington Home Decorative Box will work in any style of home with its neutral linen fabric-covered exterior and sophisticated brown faux-leather tab. I love that it stacks so that I can maximize storage space. I recommend using these boxes to store things like photos, cards, and infrequently used office supplies. The interior of this box is not quite wide enough to store standard printer-size paper so if you are looking for a similar alternative for paper storage, try the Bigso Marten Letter Box from The Container Store.

I also found a great product for organizing seasonal storage items at Aldi: the Sterilite 54-quart gasket box. I always recommend using clear storage bins to easily see the contents inside. These clear bins also have latching handles and that extra seal comes in handy if storing in a basement or garage. If you want a slightly bigger size, check out the 66-quart one available at Target.
