ALDI — Local services in Hamilton Township

For the last 16 years we have been grocery shopping at ShopRite on Route 33. We have been hearing lately about Aldi, and how their prices are unbeatable. Unfortunately, that wasn't our experience. The assortment is rather poor, it barely can serve as a final destination for all your grocery shopping. The prices vary; while some food items are priced somewhat advantageously, the others are not that much competitive. The food displays are arranged negligently, and the shelves are not being restocked properly. On a Saturday, at around 3:30 pm, there was only one cashier available thus creating a waiting line. To add insult on injury, one is supposed to put a (refunable) quarter to get a shopping cart. Really? Our experience didn't live up to the expectations. We will continue to do our grocery shopping...

ALDI is a fantastic supermarket to get off-brand items and produce at beyond reasonable prices. The only drawbacks are: you need to ensure you bring a quarter for the cart or else you can’t access one (this makes sense but change isn’t something many people carry around), the lines can be very long at the register so it’s hard to be in and out, it’s hard to find a team member to assist you but understandably lesser staffing is one way they keep costs down, and you won’t be able to get everything you need for a typical week there because there is not a full stock of items like your usual grocery store. As long as you’re aware of the potential drawbacks, you’ll be impressed with great pricing for a random...

If I could give No Stars I would. My shopping trip to Aldi today on Rte 33 was a disaster. The front vestibule smelled like the carpet needed to be cleaned. When we got into the door an overwhelming HORRID smell was coming from where the Bananas were, I had to walk away, not picking up any fresh produce from a place that stunk that bad. Since it was a Saturday, more employees should have been out on the floor helping customers, I only saw 1 and the other was on Register. They obviously need more employees to work on cleaning up the store abd the shelves, stuff was everywhere and not in its place. I understand it's a discount store, but my Son works at another store like that and his store...
