This was my 1st foray into any Audi establishment and I must say it was an interesting experience. I've been hearing about this brand for a while and I had heard that Aldi's is a place where you can save a substantial amount of money, but I also heard that it's only good for certain things, and people I spoke to had a hard time completing their weekly shopping list at this one the store. I must say I agree with that assessment. I'm currently staying out of town and I just needed to stop to get staples, cat litter and cat food. I spotted the Audi as I circled a shopping center and figured it was a good time to check it out. I was able to find a loose wagon (score!), normally you have to put a quarter in and then you get it back when returning the wagon to the depository in the front of the store. There was a quarter left in his wagon but I left it when I left the establishment, I felt it was bad karma to profit on someone else's quarter after using the wagon, so I played it forward. Having just come from working out and consuming a bunch of water, my 1st stop was the bathroom! Now this could make or break a place in my world. If I am going to be purchasing food at a business and I happen to walk into a bathroom and it's filthy or it looks like SiD & Nancy's bathroom after a particularly bad night or God forbid... bug-infested (nooo!!) I will always walk out. This bathroom was clean and functional. After finding my free wagon again I started to pace around the store for the items I needed. My list Would probably be considered more of a drugstore-type list (I thought I was going to a CVS but Audi did have several of the things I needed and a few things I didn't know I needed. I must say that the store brand is very inexpensive but so far the quality is good. My "Rice Squares" taste exactly like Rice Chex. I did stick with my Coca-Cola instead of going with the store brand for my soda as I've had bad experiences with going with off-brand soda in the past. They appear to also have a large section of non-food special items. These are mostly things You would get your boss in a pinch or things for around the house. I must say I was tempted by a pajama set but I decided to keep on task and continue with my list. The store was not crowded but not empty either and the clerk who helped me check out was friendly and worked at a perfectly fine pace. I must say that it's not the same experience as a King Kullen or a ShopRite as far as the variety of items, and can definitely be described as "no frills", but for things like cat food, cheeses and bread you can't beat the price at Aldis. I would certainly say the quality of items is far above a Dollar Tree type of store. I would certainly visit this or any other Aldi's location in the future. read more
