Aldi's is a great store. First shopped them while living and working in Europe and was over the moon to see them come here. Glad to see they are building a brand new store and hope it will be much bigger than the one on 441. I love their European foods, especially the seasonal food at Christmas.

I have only shopped at the Aldi's in Leesburg. It takes shopping at four stores to fulfill the grocery list; first, Aldi's, then Wal*Mart, then Publix (all in one day) not to mention regular trips to Sam's Club for meats and supplies. It wears one out. We were in Budapest for five days and made three trips to Aldi's for cheap, but good, wine and snacks.

Perhaps Aldi structures their stores to the community. But, lets face it, some people will always be too "thrifty" no matter how well off they are. |

Well that just sounds like a blast.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who multiple shops stores. I start at PApa Joes for meat, then whole foods, Trader Joe's, Sam's Club, Costco. In that order it doesn't take me that long since I know exactly what I want from each store. My massage therapist is right around the corner from the last store. Makes a great day. I love to grocery shop problem is I hate to put it away.

I don't shop at Aldi's because there isn't one close to me.
However, if there were, I would shop there. These are the reasons why. 25 Reasons to Buy Real Food at ALDI

I realize there may be a need by some to save as much as possible on groceries but considering that the majority of homes in TV are just a couple and they are not feeding ravenous teens, i find it ridiculous to drive to multiple stores for a day to save some pennies. |

What does it matter to you if people chose to shop in various shops for various items ................ It's got nothing to do with saving pennies here there and everywhere, it's how people chose to live their lives.

Well, we would buy more food at Aldi if our store looked like the one in Angie Fox's post. Unfortunately, the Aldi closest to us across MLK from WalMart (Leesburg) only has certain items we buy and we've had less than good luck there with the produce. I hope the new one will offer more variety.
As far as eating out being cheaper, if you only spent $25 for dinner for two as Goodtimes suggested, it might be cheaper and a whole lot less work and cleanup. And I don't really like to cook that much, but we really like the food that results from my cooking and anybody else's home cooking, for that matter. Plus, my husband is a great chopper and dishwasher. |
