That was from 2 1/2 years ago when they did close all their stores. 2002 not closing all their stores. Ocala is staying open.

Nice sales for the next week. Was there today and saved $60 on a $200 order.

Already have 3 Aldi's why do we need another?

I'm sorry to see them go, they did fill a void, unfortunately these economic times and their location I think contributed to their demise. Prices on everything is going up and there will undoubtedly be more fallout's in price sensitive businesses of all kinds.

You are correct! The smell alone gagged me! I bought some things including Asian pears which we both love. They were so bad, we couldn’t even eat them! I expected more from them! Not impressed and never went back!.

Is Trader Joe's a similar store to Aldi's? I've always considered Aldi's to be a dollar store for food. I never considered Trader Joe's in that way.

Trader Joe’s is very different and way better. It’s difficult to describe, but much closer to a fresh market than Aldi’s, except TJ’s doesn’t have all the fresh meats and fish. TJ’s has lots and lots of very reasonably priced frozen foods. We love the frozen fish and frozen meals like eggplant parmigiana, chicken fried rice, and seafood Paella. When we go to TJ’s we fill up our coffin freezer with frozen meals for evenings when we don’t feel like preparing meals from scratch. It’s very convenient, healthy, and reasonably priced.
