I do not work for Aldi. I have no inside info. This is just my observations.

I noticed that cosmetics were discounted, and now are gone. I saw discounted pricing on things like light bulbs and batteries. A few shelves here and there are empty.

I noticed that the existing Aldi across the street is smaller than ALDIs in other cities, and is often crowded. There isn’t enough room for all the weekly “finds.” Staff are constantly restocking.

I wouldn’t be surprised if, in time (after Aldi lease expires?), the WD is transformed into Aldi and the old Aldi becomes something else.
