If you're a Sioux Empire shopper who loves a good mystery, here comes one of those “set an alarm and don’t blink” kind of moments.

The popular discount grocery chain, Aldi, is bringing a little mystery and a lot of value to shoppers later this month with a limited-time “Blind Box” giveaway that’s straight out of your favorite unboxing videos on social media. If you’ve ever gone down a TikTok rabbit hole watching people open surprise packages, this is your chance to get in on the action, without spending a dime.

Here’s how it works:

According to Dakota News Now, from June 22 through June 25, Aldi will release a different themed Blind Box each day. The four theme categories include: snacks, fiber, protein, and a full-on mystery box. What's inside? A random mix of fan-favorite Aldi finds, viral grocery items, and fresh products from around the store. Each box is valued at around $50, and yes, they’re completely free.

One catch. These Aldi Blind Boxes are first-come, first-served, and they’re expected to go fast. Like, a "bread and milk rush" during a Sioux Falls blizzard fast!

So don't procrastinate if you want to try and snag one. You’ll need to be ready right at 11:00 AM Central Time each day. Head to the Aldi Blind Box website at go-time and hope you have good timing. If you score one, it’ll be shipped directly to your door; you won't need to visit an Aldi location in Sioux Falls.

Aldi says this idea plays right into what shoppers already love about the store: the thrill of discovering something new. Whether it’s those famous Aldi Finds aisles or the discount pricing you've come to know and love from Aldi Stores.

Here's a little hint: You'll want to keep an eye on Aldi’s USA Instagram account, that's where they’ll reveal each day’s theme ahead of time. That way, you can decide which box is worth trying to score.

Have fun, and good luck!

Here Are 13 of Your Favorite Fried Foods

Some foods need a fryer, others should never go near one. Forget baking. We are so obsessed with eating deep-fat fried foods. And every time you turn around, there's another menu filled with most of the items that have bathed in a hot-boiling fat vat.

There seems to be no end to what a deep fat fryer can cook. And we prove it every day with our love of crispy, greasy, burnt-tongue, salty foods.

I won't argue that an order of onion rings or sweet potato fries is the best marriage partner to a burger. Especially when they are made from scratch. So, pile them high.

What are some other delights that need the fryer?
