ALDI — Local services in Redlands

(2024.09) My favorite place to shop. I usually find 99% of what I need to buy here. Great prices and they always have fully stocked shelves. The store is kept clean. The staff is helpful and polite.

Pre-fauxdemic prices, I used to save a good 25% on my grocery budget. Now that savings is gone. Certainly not Aldi's fault, but the 2020-2024 government administration mishandling the economy and country. It's not a political statement, it's a FACT.

Yes it's true (as I hear some people complain), they do have a limited selection of brand name items with mostly their store brand items in stock, but their store brands are as good if not better than brand names. Aldi offers a twice as nice guarantee. If you don't like their store brand version for any reason, just return it for a refund, plus they will give you that same amount to purchase and try something else. How can you beat that?

The prices are certainly a lot better than other stores. Who needs to choose between 5 brands of mustard anyway? All you need is standard yellow mustard. Limiting the number of brands keeps their costs low and they definitely pass that savings into their shoppers. Bring your own bags or you can purchase them in store. The shopping cart temporarily requires .25¢ to use them and you get your quarter returned when you properly return the cart to the holding area. This helps keep costs down as well. Who needs to pay an employee to go collect carts in the parking lot, plus it keeps carts out of the parking lot and away from denting your vehicle. If you find yourself without a quarter, the cashier will either lend you a cart or a quarter to use. Because they keep a limited number of brand selections they quickly rotate out their stock and constantly replace it with new inventory. They also keep their breads, dairy, meats and produce fresh having a high rotation and...

I love Aldi stores but this has got to be the dirtiest and rudest of all their stores and I've been to quite a few. Let's start with the garbage in the carts. Yes garbage and not trash. There was food, utensils and trash in my cart that I had to clean out before bringing the cart into the store. Next, when it came to standing in a one only open check-out line that was backed all the way to the fruit area, I thought it can't get any worst but yes yes it did. When putting my food on the conveyor belt I noticed that was also disgusting so I told the cashier and he wiped it with dry paper towels. So I go towards the long table to bag my groceries and the table was so nasty. I wish I would have taken pictures (it was only 1030am)...so I bagged my food items within the cart and the next guy started following my lead and not use the table either. Ps. To the female employee stocking frozen foods in the open freezer area towards the front. Saying "Thank You" is just proper manners when someone helps you out by picking up something YOU dropped on the floor. Ugh!! I'll stick to the one closest to my house. I don't care if I need groceries and I'm in the Redlands area. I hope a supervisor or a...

Aldi is definitely one of my favorite grocery stores, it's in my top 3!

It doesn't carry much common name brand or too much variety brand however it has brands that aren't available anywhere else and items that are healthier options, fully stocked, fresh, great quality and cheaper prices that are must haves and keeps me coming back!

This Aldi I like to get here quickly without weaving through the entire shopping center. I go down Citrus Plaza Blvd and there's a turn lane right next to the store between the two lights of Mountain Grove Shopping Center and San Bernardino Ave. The store faces Alabama street and it's quick and conveniently located in the large parking/shopping center as well as right next to the 10 and 210 freeways. Its hours of operation is 7 days a week from 9am to 9pm. During this pandemic, they are practicing safety measures, such as posted info of required mask, less customers in the store and on Tuesdays and Thursdays they are open 830am to 9am for our vulnerable shoppers.

Thanks Aldi, much appreciate the quality care and customer...
