Aldi Has a Copycat of the Sold Out Trader Joe’s Cooler Bags

The recent hype over Trader Joe’s cooler bags is understandable. When one of your favorite stores comes out with a new product that's colorful, seasonal, and useful, snagging one can feel like a huge win. Plus, when summer temperatures start reaching their peak, you’re going to need a place to store your snacks and drinks while you’re out for the day.

Whether you’re heading to the lake or pulling up a chair to watch the fireworks, a cooler bag lined with ice packs is a convenient way to keep picnic foods out of the temperature danger zone. Not to mention, a cooler bag takes up a lot less space than a full-size cooler making it perfect for passing around the car during road trips.

If you haven’t been able to get your hands on the fast-moving Trader Joe’s cooler bags, you’re in luck because you can now score an even more colorful alternative at Aldi for less than $10.

Aldi's Crane Cooler Bags

Crane Cooler Bags are hitting shelves at Aldi and, trust me, you’ll want to act fast. The mini coolers are perfect for stocking up on some of our favorite Aldi finds and have plenty of storage space. They feature a front pocket with a zipper and an adjustable padded shoulder strap. The colorful bags also have bungee cord storage on top, perfect for stowing lightweight items such as sunscreen and hand wipes. There are currently four fun patterns available: Strawberry, Beach Ball, Yellow Color Block, and Blue Color Block.

It’s not clear how long the cooler bags will be available, but considering how quickly Aldi’s seasonal items rotate and given the popularity of the Trader Joe’s version, you’ll want to head to the store soon to grab yours before they’re gone.
