ALDI — Local services in Raleigh

Love this place, helpful staff, always clean, and great quality food at reasonable price. The weekly specials are awesome, a few things I've brought here besides groceries: my patio furniture set, outdoor gas grill, kitchen supplies, car accessories, interior decorations and bedding. They just started taking credit cards, so it's more convenient than ever. If you're new to Aldi, a few things to note: there's usually just one brand of each item, 99% off brand (but made by a name brand, you just don't know which one), you need a quarter to use a cart (you'll get it back when you return it), if you don't bring any bags you can purchase them or grab one of their boxes, you bag your own groceries, due to the store size and layout you'll do your groceries pretty fast, the wine is awesome and so affordable, they have lots of German and Italian imported items (expand your palate) and once you try Aldi, it might not be your only grocery store but it might become your main one... Especially when you see how much money...

This is my favorite Aldi location, but the checkout associate, Erin, needs an attitude adjustment. I made an unplanned trip here to pick up a few things. I had my husband and kids with me, which I usually won't do. I had a toddler in the front seat and a sleeping infant in the back. When I went through the checkout I understand I was being difficult by asking the cashier if she could place my items in a bag my husband was holding open. I explained to Erin that my infant was asleep and I honestly didn't want the unsanitized cart of the person in front of me. Erin scoffed at me and said I was making her job too difficult. She then proceeded to throw the items into the bag that my husband held open. She scanned it all so fast that she was holding onto a good chunk of my produce and was dropping my items on the floor. I normally would not have made this request, but I only purchased less...

I LOVE Adli's and save a TON of money there compared to some of the bigger grocery stores. While they don't have as great of a selection as you'll find in bigger stores, the savings makes it well worth going there. Their salmon is always fresh, never frozen at I think $8.99/lb, their chicken and beef generally speaking lower in cost, fresh produce definitely lower in price. Their cheese is less expensive for sure, but not as flavorful as name brand. Organic eggs, milk, and other dairy much less too! Why pay $6 for a medium bag of tortilla chips when you can get same size at Aldi's for about $2.70 every day? So glad it is close by making for...
