At the time of my first visit, I misunderstood the Concept of Aldi's. I thought that paying a quarter to rent a basket was absurd. My first mistake was that I didn't understand that I would get my quarter back when I returned it. Second misconception was the thought that someone would bag my groceries, however I was informed that I could purchase brown paper bags or costlier, but truly handier cloth reusable bags. When I realized that I did in fact get my basket quarter back, I realized when arriving home that in my hast that developed a negative view of Aldi's. I decided that I had to give it another try. Armed with their ad, I had the weekly deals that were available and they truly great deals, and a quarter for the refundable basket rental. I started my second adventure. This time things went mush smoother and my attitude was much improved. I found out that while shopping that you could easily find boxes to load your items which saved time at checkout, loading purchases, and carrying them inside upon arrival. The third and possibly the most negative feeling that is I had In mind was the fact that he they did not accept credit cards. CASH ONLY. Thankfully they have amended their policy to accept credit cards, so I most amend my previous review and give it 5 stars now because I have been converted and am now a regular Aldi customer sipping there at least twice a week and the savings...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis Aldi had been my least favorite for a while. The manager was rude to me and I felt like every time I went she was catching attitude with someone new. But today I went because it was on my way to work and I left surprised. I met this guy named Matt who was super friendly and very aware of his surroundings. I had a basket full of stuff and the people behind me had 3-4 things. He politely asked if he could take them before checking me out and I gladly said yes. I didnāt realize they had barely anything, and I would of much preferred them to have gone before me. Then while bagging I accidentally dropped my oil on the floor and he quickly left his register (btw he was the only one checking ppl out) and ran to get a broom and dust pan. He picked up as much as he could to assure we didnāt get hurt and ran back to check people out. After checking one person out he ran to get a replacement oil for the one I dropped to bring it back to me. Still no one came to help him or help check people out. He was juggling all of this and with a great attitude while his manager and other employees were in the gossip. I was also with my husband and he couldnāt believe what he was experiencing. Thereās still very great people on this earth. Thank you Matt for you...

This is the worst ALDI in Memphis,TN. It's 12:44 p.m. on a Saturday and look at the line. 9ne register. The BEST ALDI is in Olive Branch, Mississippi about twenty minutes from here. THERR ARE NEVER LINES THERE.
I only have a star in order to be able to give a comment; a star had to be selected. This location has gone to the dogs. It's not the employees, the few that are there, it's the unkept facility, trash on the grounds, the floors inside are filthy and the long lines are ridiculous. I go to the store in Olive Branch which is at least 25 minutes away to receive A+. I don't blame the workers because they are doing the best that they can, as I stated, there are only a handful of them. I just left the store and the young lady that was checking customers out was visibly frustrated because she was scheduled to get off at 4:30 p.m. it's nine minutes til 5:00 p.m. and she is stuck at work. There is only two lanes open and the lines are down the aisle. She stated she couldn't leave the other person with so many people to check out. Management needs to send other employees to this location or get on the registers themselves. As often as I can I will be going to...
