The Sleek Space-Saving Aldi Find That'll Organize All Your Cups For Under $5

Aldi may have built its cult following around bargains on groceries, like cheap meat and dupes that are better than name brand products, but dedicated fans of the discount supermarket know that the best deals often come in the form of Aldi Finds. These limited-time products vary from knick-knacks that amplify your kitchen ambiance to household necessities that can be purchased for a steal. Aldi Finds also occasionally features space-saving solutions for areas around your home that won't break the bank. Two current Aldi Finds fall into this category: the Kirkton cup holder and wine glass holder, both of which are available now for under $5.

The cup organizer allows folks to hang up to eight of their favorite coffee mugs in the kitchen, saving cabinet space while also proudly displaying their colorful cupware within arm's reach of their coffee maker. Kirkton's wine glass holder offers people an alternative to stashing stemware on a shelf by hanging the glasses upside down from the rack for easy access to their favorite vessel for vino.

Both kitchen organizers come in white or black, which should accommodate many different kitchen color schemes. And those who aren't particularly handy will appreciate that there are no screws or nails needed to mount the organizers. They both utilize a bar at the top that allows them to attach to the bottom of a freestanding cabinet or shelf — no installation necessary.

Whether to hang cups and glassware or store them standing up has long been a subject of debate, and each side of the argument makes fair points. Team standing storage maintains that placing them upright allows more air to circulate, reducing the chance that moisture will become trapped inside the dishes, which can lead to mold growth. The opposition declares that circulating air can carry dust and other random particulates into standing glasses.

The Kirkton kitchen organizers at Aldi embody the best of both worlds to a degree. The wine glass holder keeps glasses upside down, but they aren't sitting on a shelf. Air can still freely circulate and keep the inside of the vessel dry, and dust shouldn't be able to settle while it remains upside down. You shouldn't see any dirt, debris, or moisture when you hold your wine glass.

The cup holder works in a similar fashion, allowing air to circulate undeterred. However, they likely won't sit upside down. The cups hang from their handles and, depending on where the weight of the cup is centered, it may sit sideways or closer to upright. Still, if you're in the market for something that will save space in the kitchen, it's worth taking a shot for a price tag of under $5, even if you have to give your favorite coffee mug a quick wipe before pouring in your morning perk.
