I tried…, this store is convenient, that’s about it. You go in there, half the time the produce section is lacking in “essentials” which ALDIS is all about, right? For about a week the fridges didn’t work so it felt like walking into a dollar general or something. Customer service is subpar and it’s really only a couple of employees that soured my experience. One encounter was a STORE MANAGER that was at checking people out and because they are all about “efficiency” the manager was instructing me to put the items on the conveyor belt WHILE I was putting items on the conveyor belt… then told me to insert my “card” … assuming I was paying with a card of some sort ?

A growing number of companies, including Aldi’s competitors like Kroger, Target, and Costco, are ending the confinement of animals in cages. It is a cruel practice, and several U.S. states and countries worldwide have already banned it.
