This Netto is not too far away from the Netto location in Papenburg but it is far superior. The…read morebottle return is on your right as you enter. There is a recycling center on the left where you can recycle paper, cardboard, plastic and batteries, which is convenient. I like this location because service is very friendly, like unusually friendly. Almost everyone who works there is very pleasant. There is a decent selection of glass-bottled beer, not the plastic beer you'll find at other discount chains. The last time I was there, they had Ben & Jerry's ice cream - multiple flavors! What a pleasant surprise! This location is also quieter and less crowded than the Papenburg location which is why I prefer it.

Lidl is one of the most successful grocery chains in all of Europe. Successful? How about over…read more10,000 stores? Lidl is a German surname, which is used instead of Schwarz, the corporate name . They really couldn't call it Schwarz, because that word means 'black' in German, and 'black market' broadcasts all sorts of criminal connotations. So Lidl it is, 10,000+ stores later. There is a Lidl in Wildeshausen, Germany, where I did some grocery shopping today. First impressions are that this store is neat, clean, spotless, and antiseptic. The shelves are beautifully faced up, and I noticed busy employees efficiently working to keep things that way. It has the look of a Food4Less, but none of the problems usually noticed in that store. Along the first aisle from the entry, there is a floor-to-ceiling wall of plexiglas drawers containing dozens and dozens of baked goods, from cookies to full loaves of fresh baked bread. A customer can manipulate his choice sideways to a slide using a plastic handle, and it zooms right down into your store-supplied plastic bag. Amazing. The merchandise selection is not necessarily comprehensive at Lidl. For example, instead of 4 or 5 brands of butter, there are just 2. And yet there is a full aisle of soft drinks, and the selection of wine is mind-boggling. Beer, too. (You can tell where I spent some quality time.) Prices and selection for staple foods like coffee are really good. Lidl's business model is incredibly successful, no question. But why over-describe it? Lidl has announced it will land on our shores in 2018. The Germans are coming ! Actually, Aldi has already arrived in Vista, and Chula Vista is opening soon. The grocery store wars are going nuclear, and the customer will reap the beneficial fallout.

As far as Primarks go, this one is smaller. It doesn't help that it's only one level, so they have…read moreto squeeze everything onto one level. As of September 2021, they are still doing Covid precautions. You can't enter from the exterior-facing entrance. Or exit. You have to enter from inside the mall. You queue up outside and they watch you sanitize your hands. They then hand you a shopping bag, which appears to be how they keep track of how many people are inside the store. They also try to maintain social distancing in the extremely long checkout lines, which is appreciated. People cannot read the floor markings so their staff helps out. Because it's smaller, the selection feels quite limited, especially if you're used to the extensive Primarks. As usual, the checkout lines (both sides) were way too long. But they're trying.
