First - the store itself is beautiful and is well stocked - it is a strange floor layout coming to Carnegie from the three great stores in Pittsburgh especially the South Side.
Long and short - there are just ONE OR TWO crabby hateful mean employees and one is a woman that when I complained about her being hateful and mean she said "YES because you are interrupting me doing a timed task!". I'm sorry so Aldi's has people with Aldi's shirts working in the store and I'm supposed to avoid those doing timed tasks HOW? How would I know I'm a customer. When she directed me to the manager who heard everything he prejudged me, listened carefully, and then said "I'm NOT going to allow YOU to treat MY employee like she is not a person" and then asked me to leave the store loud enough that everyone in the store could hear.
This store has a problem with their employees being jerks to customers and the management at the store level is supporting and apparently encouraging their employees by doing nothing about their lack of concern helping customers and being terse jerks to customers. It's OK - be a jerk to customers your doing a timed task sweetie - there is no problem just keep being yourself babe.
I am at a loss. The only apparent solution is to fire the jerk employees with cause and to replace or transfer...
   Read moreI live three blocks away, but deferred to my Grocery store of past years. I read on line: ALDI was the place of destination for quality and a vast savings on produce, cheese, spices, can goods, and meat. I thought..."go see, try it". I'm a retired retail manager,....
Paid my quarter for a shopping cart that refunds when you return the cart...smart....not one cart in the parking lot.
I entered the store, Saltine Crackers $1.53, over $3 at my store; bag of Baby Carrots $.89 (save ???? $2 min)--are you kidding me; dozen of large eggs $1.53 (savings $1)--OMG; single Salad Bowl $2.89 (savings $1.60)--I'm loving it. A Blood Pressure Monitor $24.99--a reason to replace my existing. I don't recall what else-- 2.85oz bag of Jerky $3.19, Onion Powder $.99, Rice Cakes almost free...???
I didn't need anything, but I wanted to see the store. THE PRICING CAPTURED ME!!! IT IS NOW MY SUPERMARKET OF CHOICE!!!! Please visit one...I BET...
   Read moreIf you have been to one Aldi, you been to them all. The only real difference is how the stores are each set up. Aldi usually has everything I'm looking for each time I go so i don't have to go elsewhere to find what ever grocery item I need, but there are times when they are out of something I need but it's not going to ruin my shopping trip if they dont. I like Aldi's prices. They definitely beat the local grocery stores, sometimes by a few cents, sometimes by a few dollars, and who doesn't love saving money in any amount? I highly recommend doing your grocery shopping at any Aldi store, you won't be disappointed and you'll be getting some great deals as well. And of you don't like an item, take it back and use the double back guarantee they offer, they definitely...
