Really ? It's interesting to see the opinion of others. My thinking was 360 degrees opposite. I love Aldi's items and wonderful fresh produce, U.S.A. meats, good cheese selection, etc. but most of all I love their parking lots that are always free of carts. Sure wish WM and others would do the same. I must say I AM surprised that people do put their carts back in the cart rack just to get their quarter back ! Thought maybe most people would not even bother with their quarter and just leave the carts all over the lot taking up parking spaces...but no, the system really does work ! It's amazing...people who ordinarily won't walk 10 feet to put a cart/buggy in a corral, but WILL put it back to retrieve their quarter !
