Aldis is a joke. Just like Sav a lot on 18. Off brand stuff that the real stores don't want

268, I sat down one day and compared every item on my Aldi receipt to what I would pay at Walmart. I came out ahead even with spending the gas to drive to Lenoir, I still spent about $20 less than if I had gone to Walmart. And if bringing your own bags is too much of a bother for you, then yes, you should probably continue shopping at Walmart. The same goes for paying $.25 for a buggy, which you will get back if you return the cart

You get your .25 back when you return your cart....That is a good system I think. It makes sure that the carts are put back, rather than left out in the parking lot. The bag thing doesn't make any difference to me, as I always take my reusable shopping bags everywhere.

told ya 25 cents 4 a buggy buy ya bag WALMART here i come LMDFAO

Oh yeah, that's right. When I was checking out at that Aldi's in Arkansas they said I'd have to buy a bag. LOL

got 2 pay 25 cents for a buggy & furnish ya own bags SCREW that

I would really like me some German food.

Fins, did you even read the article?

What's your point? There are plenty of people that will shop by price instead of quality. I'm not one of them.

As an added draw, Aldi now offers an ever increasing selection of organic fresh produce, with prices comparable to Wal Mart prices on conventional fruits and vegetables.

Every Aldi store I've been in looked like a homeless soup kitchen with the dirt and the vast selection of no name brands.

So it's an off brand grocery store? Don't we already have one of those off Hwy 18? Save a lot (or something like that)?

It's only an off brand because that's what your told. We shop there and have never really had a problem with quality.

That's really not true. Store brands are made in the same factory, but they're not identical. What usually happens is the first run of food goes to the brand name, and the lower runs (the ones that don't have the better ingredients and might have more corn or flour) go to the store brands.

LMAO drive to statesville or winston or lenor to get groceries ive heard it all WAL MART S/C FOR ME hit the road

the aldis store in statesville is closer then winston or lenoir. right off of 77 onto hwy 21 south to statesville.

FOOD LION MOVED im sure ALDI never compete with WAL MART i been in one @ ATLANTA to pricy ill give them a month WAL MART shut them down

It's only an off brand because that's what your told. We shop there and have never really had a problem with quality. They have a crap load of gluten free as well. If you pick up a gluten free product by mistake then it will definitely taste different.

Funny thing is that Aldi is owned by the same company that owns Trader Joes that many people swoon over.. The "off brand" labels are all produced by the same companies on their main lines as the "name brands." For example the Aldi brand canned coffee is produced by Maxwell House, but is $5.29 a can. Walmart can't beat their prices if someone isn't hung up on name brands.
