Aldi. Conflicted. This store is a must, due to high inflation of other retail stores in the area. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Five stars for each of them. Love the convenience from parking to shopping. Never crowded and always fully stocked. Also, very clean. I find Meijer to be horrible as far as crowded and low staff at registers. $$$ Aldi less expensive, except for brand names. Walmart is a really good match price wise but again long walk and crowded - too much for me at times. The problem is the food, if it's not brand name (very expensive here); it is mostly poor ingredients such as Aldi brand stuffed white sandwich cookies, you know the brand. I had to throw them away they were so inferior tasting to the real thing. I don't care for their watered down canned pumpkin. But if you look there can be goodies here and there. Even when it says organic I find the taste "off." But then, I grew up on Whole Foods so I am spoiled. Some items are definitely way cheaper than other stores such as basics like produce. For some reason they don't carry skim milk in a gallon? But their coffee cream is excellent. Their organic corn chips are delicious. Frozen crinkle fries are very light and not oily. They have a good cheese selection. Bread tastes a little bland but not a bunch of bad ingredients - so good for me. Also I use their cleaning products but they seem somewhat watered down. I don't care because well? ...way cheaper here. Many times I skip the larger stores so I can get in and out quickly, a huge plus for me at Aldi. So hit or miss but a must. read more
