ALDI — Local services in Joplin

Ordered a delivery order via Door Dash that was $190 to restock the food on my semi after it getting out of the shop. Dasher, Jenna and her husband arrived at 1900. Jenna steadily communicated with me. The Aldi site showed everything I ordered in ample stock however when my dasher arrived at the store, that was not found to be true which made it a bigger struggle for her to locate my items in a quick fashion.

Max, the night manager, was insanely rude to both Jenna and her husband as they asked where specific items were as they didn't see them. He was condescending and snappy towards both of them. They explained they were with Door Dash and almost done as 2000 approached. Max, threatened to call the police on them for trespassing if they didn't leave the store immediately. Jenna called me and asked me what she wanted me to do about what she already had in the cart. I heard Max in the background catching a serious attitude towards her, so I told her to just leave the entire order for the manager to deal with as I do not support how he was speaking to my dasher. I heard him tell Jenna and her husband they keep strict hours to keep the food prices low.

When Jenna arrived with my Five Guys, she explained some of the produce I asked for, she rejected because it looked wilted and inedible. I thanked her for her eye to detail and for saving me from potentially getting sick.

Aldi is a great place to go if you are interested in saving money or you just enjoy unique treats and good food. Aldi has great produce! Things we buy on a regular- Dog food, grapes, salad by the bag, cookies, chicken salad dip, block cheese, tomatoes basil soup, condiments and so much more. My wife follows and Aldi Facebook group. They share what temporary or seasonal items they enjoy. They tell what item they are excited about finding on the "aisle of shame." This is the aisle with non grocery items, ie. House shoes, garden signs, kitchen gadgets, electronics and other knick knacks. The store and the restrooms are always clean. The staff is always super friendly. Go to Aldi, get higher quality items than you do at Wal-Mart and save money...

People go here to shop. Compared to other grocery stores, there is less stopping in the aisles to talk or engage in other disruptive behaviors. Checkers don't bag groceries and the selection is different from other grocery stores, but the prices are great and the products are top notch. Surprisingly fancy cheese can be had here, and they sell great sausage you won't find in other local stores. Bring a quarter and give it a try! End of 2023 update: Aldi is still Joplin's best grocery store. Most Sundays, you can find fresh fish marked down 50%. When it's in stock, their dairy free ice cream is the best in town. Fantastic chocolate. As a rule, people come here to get their groceries and get out,...
