Aldi

I buy my staple products there such as milk, butter, eggs cheese, etc but I don't buy any of their processed snacks or frozen vegetables because most of it comes from either China or some other weird arse country on the other side of the planet.

Aldi here used to be for poor people only. They charged you for grocery bags, took only cash, or welfare money, and generally had generic products.

I have not been in one for about 10 years, but from what I hear they are much more refined now.

Funny, I used to live half a block from one for 6 years, only went in there once, saw all the nig nogs, and left.
Explained why I kept seeing so many nigs on my block.

Britbong here. I have done the main bulk of my shopping at Aldi for years. I do probably 80% of my shpping here then call at Tesco for the stuff I can't get at Aldi.

Lots of their stuff is really tasty and really reasonably priced. I've found it's just a case of trial and error and finding what you like. I stay away from the cheap microwave meals (although I would stay away from them from anywhere!), some of the cheaper wines can be pretty bad (but they do have some good ones too).

The super 6 and weekly offers are great for keeping costs down and adding some variety.

9/10 would shop there again.

Aldi is garbage. Only good if you don't have cheap ethnic markets nearby.

>shopping at Aldi when Lidl is an option
wat

In the UK, does Aldi import most of its shit from Asia? Here, canned corn is from Thailand, lots of their processed snacks are from China etc. They do have some really good stuff that's local, I just refuse to buy frozen green beans from Belgium when I'm in Australia and we grow plenty of beans here. Yeah sure it's cheaper, but it doesn't do anything for local farmers.

I dunno if you're making shit up or went to one that was halfway through remodelling, but Aldi looks pretty much like your standard supermarket except smaller and less expensive. And they carry many of the same brands as "normal" stores.

germans screwed with walmart, so I'll screw with aldi. I will never shop there because it is german owned.

Aldi is a meme. Everyone thinks it's great but in reality people only go there because they're too poor to shop at M&S and Waitrose.

>dont even sell real food
>have produce
>have meat
>have fish
>have dry goods
>have canned goods
how the fuck do they not have "real food"
you realize the entire store isnt offbrand cookies right?

>>8590090
Still charge for bags but just bring sone of their bags, they hold up for a year or more

>>8591763
>onions, carrots, bananas, and lettuce
sure thing dude, you obviously have never actually been into a trader joes
>3 shelves of meat
sure thing dude, you obviously have never actually been into a trader joes
>tilapia and sketchy farm raised salmon
i will give you this one, i buy all my fish from asian markets

and if you agree that they have canned goods, dry goods and offbrand stuff how is ANY OF THAT not real food?

>b-but i am just exaggerating to make my bitching sound better
get over yourself dude.
Trader joes is fine.

Aldi Nord always sells those weird pickled foods and dry sausages everywhere, even in the impulse purchase sections. Who the hell waits in line at the grocery store and thinks to himself, "Man, I could go for some pickled eggs and dried Belarusian salami right now!"

>>8590078
the one by me is hood af and i refuse to blend with the dregs. i wish there were one in a nicer part of town

>>8591792
again, the existence of microwave ready food and frozen good do not make the rest of the food there non-existent.

>>8590587
Racist

I love shopping at aldis for certain items, like basic toiletries and I quite like their cottage cheese and veggies. I bounce between there and Wegmans, luckily only the normal poor people shop at my Aldis while the scumbags stay over at Walmart

Some Aldi food is good - better even than similarly priced food elsewhere. Other food is god awful and you just have to find out for yourself. Also, their food seems so cheap because it comes in strange sizes not usually found in other stores - even name brand items so it's very difficult to actually comparison shop ounce for ounce in your head.

I don't think I've ever seen a Black in my Aldis.

Fuck off you stupid cunt

>>8592029
Aldi doesn't have an s on the end of it.

>>8592606
Doesn't it?
Well, then I've been sounding like a tard for fucking years.
Thanks.

>>8590574
Aldi does Trader Joes.

>>8592619
Yes, yes you have

It's never been called Aldis

>>8592636
You don't have to rub it in, you fucking sword swallower.

>This guy who hates Aldis and trader joes even though theyre amongst the highest favorited stores in the nation on record

>>8592672
>aldis

WHERE DOES THIS S KEEP COMING FROM?

>>8592619
I call it Aldi's too anon. I've never heard anyone IRL say it without the 's added on.

The Aldi's here isn't bad. Milk, precooked frozen shit (I'm looking at you, tendies fags), and most dairy stuff are the only things that aren't worth buying there. Their meat selection is tiny, but they have special deals every week that are worth it.

Fuck Aldis.

Always the exact same list slowly whittling away at what small funds he had planned on saving for retirement. All he ever ate was Cheerios and ice cream with milk in the bowl.

so he put cheerios and milk and then ice cream in the same bowl
