    This is not a grocery store. It is a commercial warehouse distribution center for a regional grocery wholesale.

    ALDI - 11/21/2023

    ALDI

    Popped into this ALDI on the Tuesday afternoon before Thanksgiving 2023…read more It's a decent ALDI. Been to several in California. This is the first Texas store of its kind I've shopped. The usual setup applies: bring a quarter to the locked carts out front. Shop. The cashier uses your cart in a hurried fashion to reload the groceries NOT into bags after they've been scanned. You bag them yourself at the long counter near the exit. All of this cuts back on prices... which inflation has still affected ALDI but not nearly as bad as I thought it would. If I had a cooler with me, I would have picked up a few fridge & freezer items. Their specialty section was a bit in disarray. Pretty normal sight actually. Then I think to myself, I'm glad to not be going to those folk's houses. Lol. Thank you to the nice lady who gave me her cart in the parking lot. I tried to give it away again, but got a no thank you. Ha!

    Well, I'm still a big fan of Aldi. I recently saw an article about Aldi having cheaper prices than…read moremost grocery stores. As I shopped today, I paid attention, and yes, they are cheaper on most things, if not everything. And they have SO many things that other stores don't have. I guess you know they are sister stores with Trader Joe's. Anyway, I like shopping here, so thank you for coming to Abilene!

    The front end manager tonight so rude. Waiting for the cashier he keeps talking to her, no…read moreacknowledgment that I am waiting. So I move to another cashier that just waiting she had a big welcoming smile and I told her how I was cashing out my order. She doing just fine. When he decides he's gonna come over he jump in the middle of my order. Start asking questions moving things and messing everything up for the young lady. She gave him the please stop look but he just kept touching. So spoke up and then he turn in a rude very condescending. To both of us. I would say that he is just a warm body staff that the store can trust he won't steel. I feel bad for the group of young employees he is overseeing tonight. This will be that job they look back at hate it all because of the warm body night management hope they find a better environment to work in soon.

Crystal is an excellent manager, and deserves all the recognition she gets. But the real reason I come here so much is the deli. The best sandwiches at the best price. The California Club is amazing! 10/10. The Philly cheesesteak is 8/10, and well worth getting. There are daily specials in the hot deli, and it's always crowded at lunch. Are you ready for a sandwich? Meet you there!

    This is a smaller grocery store, similar in size to the Walmart Neighborhood market. The first…read morething I noticed when I walked in was that the entire store is carpeted. Is that necessarily a bad thing? I suppose not. However, it is a strange choice for a grocery store and I did notice that the store is already getting a bit of a foul odor. For that reason, I believe the carpet was a mistake. The fresh produce section was decently stocked. While he produce is all things you can find at other stores, I would certainly label this produce section as ample. The meat section is bit small. They have the very basics, but certainly nothing special. And although I did purchase a few meat items, some of the beef appeared dark brown in color and it was off-putting. The rest of the store is a bit disorganized. We take for granted that most stores follow the same pattern as far as what items are stocked near other particular items. That was not the case here. What struck me most--and please forgive me for sounding pretentious--was the rowdiness of the customers. I would normally chalk these instances up to isolated incidents, but at Cash Savers, I encountered at least three annoyances. First, there were a couple of kids--maybe 10 or 11--who got their hands on a motorized shopping cart. They were driving around the store, goofing around, crashing into carts, and when they got bored doing that, they parked the cart sideways in an aisle blocking it. We also encountered a large family with young children, the kids were walking down the chips/snacks aisle and smashing each bag that was within reach to crush the chips. Then in the parking lot, several cars were not following the lines and it threw off the entire parking lot. What did I like? The prices on items are darn cheap, including some items that are fairly expensive at HEB or Market Street. For those few items alone, today was worth the hassles. I would come back here, but would love to see them expand their meat selection.

    This review is not so much about the store, as I've only been in it a couple of times because it's…read moreout of my way, but about their cashier named Donna. So I'm in a habit of bringing in only cash on hand when I go to an establishment such as this. Normally I'd pay attention to how much I'm spending so as not to exceed the amount I brought in, but I guess the freezing cold outside froze my brain and did not pay much attention to what I was doing. So this time around I did exceed the amount of my purchase by 62 cents. I offered to go back out to my car to retrieve some change, I even offered to put back one of my items, but she wouldn't have any of it. Instead, without much thought, she reached into her purse and paid for what I was lacking. Now, 62 cents may not sound like a lot, but 62 cents may mean a lot to give to a stranger, not knowing her situation. She could have taken me up on my options to come up with what was lacking, but instead she chose to be kind, to be understanding. Donna, if you ever get a chance to see this, I want to say thank you and that we need more people like you. Blessings to you!

    Though Walmart is a huge chain which oftentimes disappoints the average shopper, i feel the urge to…read moregive credit to their Vision Center. Though tricare members aren't offered any sort of discounts for the purchase of glasses/contact lenses. Their buy 1, get 1 50% off is a great deal. Also, i would strongly recommend taking advantage of their policy of replacement of scratched/broken glasses for school/age students. They have replaced my daughter's glasses promptly and always with a smile on their faces. I have chosen their 79$ lenses option (antiscratch and progressive, which made my daughter's glasses double as some pretty awesome sunglasses). They range from fairly inexpensive frames to the pricey and fashionable ones. The glasses were ready in less than 10 days and they called for pick-up. No 5 star because they don't offer discounts - advantages to tricare (aka military health care) members. But, their prices aee competitive anyways.

    I've been a longtime Walmart customer, but today was beyond frustrating. I placed a delivery order…read morethat Walmart was unable to deliver, so I decided to drive and pick it up myself. No problem -- it's a drive for me, but I stayed polite and patient through the whole process. What upset me most was being repeatedly lied to by corporate customer service. I was told multiple times to go pick up my order, and each time I arrived at the store, no one knew what I was talking about. I made THREE trips today because of misinformation from corporate. To make matters worse, some employees at the store laughed about the situation instead of trying to help. I know one small review won't matter to a corporation this size, but if you're reading this, ask yourself why we continue supporting companies that clearly don't care about customer service anymore. Phones are answered by AI, employees are underpaid and overwhelmed, and accountability seems nonexistent. This experience reminded me why supporting local businesses matters. Small businesses usually care when they make a mistake because their customers actually matter to them. With huge corporations, you're often just another order number.
