Aldi

I really like this store! They have a really good selection of healthy organic products. My favorites are the organic popcorn, salsa, hummus, and blue corn tortillas chips. Such good deals on organic food! There other food is great deals too and if you don’t like something you can bring it back! There are a couple products I don’t like but I won’t say what they are because everyone is different!

I had my first Aldi experience a few weeks ago and didn’t think to write a review until now! I went with my friend and I was really impressed. To be honest, I had heard negative things about Aldi in the past but I was able to get some great deals. My friend got a cart from the lot, I think it’s a quarter but you get it back after. You also have to bring your own bags or they charge you for them. I got some spices I had been needing and picked up an awesome snow brush and scraper for my husband to keep in his car. My friend got some produce and some other items as well. The employees were friendly and checkout was fast as we went in late on a Sunday night. I will definitely be back in the future again!

Much to my surprise; I really enjoy shopping at Aldi, it has changed the way I shop and improved my bottom line. I always find what I want or an alternative, seasonal items (after the fact) are reduced significantly, produce is fresh and the meat is priced well. The stores are clean and once you learn the lay out, all locations are pretty much the same. I have found prices for the same item, such as milk and eggs vary by location.
On top of that; I’m a huge Clark Howard fan and this is what he says about Aldi, «By shopping at Aldi, customers can save up to 33% off traditional supermarket prices and up to 20% off Walmart prices. But beware that there are tradeoffs for that savings.»
Here is the list of Clark Howard’s trade offs:
Small stores:
Aldi stores are about the size of a neighborhood chain drugstore with small aisles. Less real estate means less overhead and more savings for you.
Focus on private labels:
There’s only a tiny selection of products because of the emphasis on store brands. You don’t have 10 kinds of butter, for example. There may only be one or two kinds available. Forget about the paradox of choice.
Schedule conflicts:
They have limited hours and long lines.
No bags, but there are cart rentals:
There are no grocery bags and you have to rent a cart for 25 cents, which you get back when you return it to the corral. That reduces the cost of having to pay somebody to round up carts in the parking lot and it reduces accidental dents to your car when carts roll around the parking lot.
Limited payment options:
Many Aldi locations only take cash, while other may accept select debit cards. No credit cards!
«The selection is just large enough that a dedicated Aldi shopper could make this their only supermarket. But again, shopping at Aldi is an acquired taste. I love the savings. And I’ve never tasted one of their products and felt it was awful, so I’ll keep going back.»
And so will I, Clark, so will I!

Aldi’s has most things a regular grocery store has but not all. Its all about discount here. Especially with lack of name brands.
Name brands are usually overrated but not always. Anyway the 25c thing with the carts is genius, ill say that.
Today I shopped and they opened a line for lil olé me! I get in line & cashier says did you find everything ok? i told her yes but was looking for a certain item I could not locate. Im sure you are out of it, I say. She jumps out of her cashier seat saying hold on. Comes running back a minute later with the item. I apologized to customers behind me for the delay but they were nice. This is killer customer service! One I truly appreciate. Id like to let the mgr know. I see past reviewers have already noticed. Great cust srvice here!

I love Aldi!
Yes, the prices are great — but the people are why I come back.
They are always helpful & always kind.
Thank you to the manager of this store for expecting great customer service to be given every time.

I was very impressed with the cashier today. Gary was very helpful, courteous, and took the time to talk to customers, let us know of different specials, and gently placed the items in the cart.
