Got in line and was offered a chance to move ahead because of my small order. I said thanks but I'm in no hurry.
Did I try a grape before I bought 2 lbs.? Yes. Did I offer to pay for it? No. Do I feel guilty? No. Cannot imagine someone buying grapes without trying one. Hope no one saw me on camera.
That's life.

I don't patronize Aldi's on a regular basis but I have gone twice. I knew about the quarter for a cart so when I got out of my car, I had a quarter in my hand. Both times I gave the quarter to a person in the lot who just finished unloading their cart. Worked well those two times for me.
I graciously accept the opportunity to move ahead in line when I have one or two items to pay for.
As for tasting the grapes..........YOU GOTTA taste the grapes before purchasing the bag. There are some really sour grapes out there. And..........there are some really sweet grapes out there. Betcha bottom dollar I'm going for the sweet ones. I'm with you.........I don't pay for those grapes I sampled.
