I was planning to be in the neighborhood and have been meaning to shop at ALDI more often, so I made sure to bring a quarter, my own bags, and a shopping list. We all know that ALDI is one of the cheapest places to grocery shop while still getting quality products. I just wish there were more of them around. The one closest to me is rather small and I always forget it's there.
Anyhoo, this ALDI is located directly off Morse Rd., has a large parking lot, and is pretty big inside. I appreciate how spacious it is, especially during the time of COVID. While a few social distancing rules are in place (masks required and spaced out while in line) people were not exactly being the safest. I also noticed that they only had 2 checkout lines open on a busy Sunday afternoon and the lines were backed up in the aisle making it difficult to shop with distance. They also weren't monitoring how many people were in the store and it was crowded.
I would definitely recommend coming at off hours, like during the week day.
Ok, ok, back to the normal stuff. I was specifically looking for gluten free items and I found a ton and all reasonably priced. My cashier was friendly and bless her heart for that. Other customers were not so much. Everything was in stock, which was impressive on the weekend. The produce looked fresh and I grabbed up a few things like zucchini.
All in all, I'd shop here again. I just recommend skipping a trip on the weekend and swinging by when it's not as busy. read more
