There is one by my wife's work. She went once. Said it was real ghetto. I think she even saw Sal Rosenburg there.

That piece of shit? Fuck Aldis

We have 1 just South of us a few miles, we didn't really like, maybe a 3 star  at best but thought the prices compared to close Wally World..

We dont buy everything there, their produce is better than it was, but still not as fresh as some other chains.   We probably by 80% of our stuff there and then fill in the rest at the major local chain.   Not really sure why Greg has such a hard on for them.  A deal is a deal, no different than buying shit made in China.

I tried Aldis once. Family members wouldn't eat the stuff I bought. I would shop there 'cause it's so cheap. Good for poor people.

Trader Joes, Whole Foods, and Shaw's can fuck off with their prices.

We have these MARKET BASKET stores here in southern NH, Maine and MAss.  Can't beat them. Clean, well stocked, big selection, good prices. If you ask an employee  for something they will usually go all over the store to find it for ya'.

I told someone how far I've gone to avoid dot-heads in the supermarket, and they could not believe it. I think they thought I was kind of crazy.

Hey, I can't help it, they make me sick. I find them humanly repulsive.

I could never figure that out either. Like no one is going to notice your prices are twice as much.

I came home from shopping at Trader Joe's one time and told a family member, that Traders is a good place to go if you want to literally go broke.
