Aldi in Bluffton, SC
Aldi Bluffton is at 1131 Fording Island Road, on US 278, and is the town's only Aldi. It is open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day, so it is not the place for a late arrival. Aldi's customer line is (855) 955-2534.
What to Expect
Aldi is a compact discount store: most of what is on the shelves is its own brand, and the selection is smaller than a supermarket's. Shoppers praise the prices, especially on fruit, vegetables and cheese, and the European chocolate. It fills up on weekends. Bring your own bags, and a quarter for the shopping cart, as Aldi's carts are released with a coin.
A Cheap First Stop
For a rental week, Aldi covers the basics at low prices, and you can add anything it doesn't stock at Publix or Kroger.
Shopping From Hilton Head Island
Until the island's own Aldi opens, islanders who want one drive over. From the Hilton Head bridges it is about 5 miles west on US 278, roughly 10 minutes in light traffic and longer on a summer Saturday or at the evening rush. The store is on the same stretch of road as the Walmart and the other big-box stores on our Bluffton shopping page, so it fits into one trip.
Hilton Head Island's first Aldi is built, at 80 Mathews Drive in Sea Turtle Marketplace, and opens in the coming months: see Aldi Hilton Head. Until it opens, this is the closest one. For the stores on the island, see the Hilton Head grocery stores.
