First thing I did after moving to Lawrence was buy a Merc membership. Now I regret that I did. In…read morejust three years, hot food quality got steadily worse, then the hot food operation was shut down entirely. Bought some supposedly fresh fish from the seafood department. It was horrible. Probably also was Kansas-style "fresh," which means frozen that is defrosted and then sold at the higher fresh prices. Then one day, in a hurry, bought a ready-made sandwich to take out. Should have stopped long enough to read the fine print on the wrapper: It said the sandwich was four days old. I wouldn't serve a four-day-old ham and cheese to my worst enemy ... not even if it was free, unlike mine, which was extravagantly priced. Too bad Lawrence can't have a nice co-op.

Very little fresh options and I had seen mold in some of their ginger and garlic before. I understand it's probably the only Asian market in Lawrence, and the next closest asian stores being in Overland Park/Topeka, so there might not be a lot of options. But the quality of food, service and store maintenance are a whole separate conversation. If there's ever another option in Lawrence, I'd go there in a heartbeat. Until then, I try to do a monthly haul from Pan Asia Supermarket in OP, and only ever grab one-off items I need from F Mart as an emergency stop.

Getting to the main place I want to be (the produce section) is difficult when they are close to closing, because the doors to that side are locked. You end up having to walk a backwards maze to get over there. Weird. Checkers is where you go to get produce. The produce is better here than the two closest grocery stores. So I love the place despite its odd layout!

This is basically a Kroger Store from the layout of the stores and seeing the generic characters I've seen and at Jewel - Osco back home. The place is full of unruly college kids that loiter in the store or parking lot. The food here is expensive and there lacks any sort of real deal. Staff here was friendly but the store felt completely outdated. Fair organization as well. Probably won't come back if I had a choice.

Dillons is usually our go to but the Lawrence locations have recently declined since COVID hit and…read morehours were changed. We go Saturday mornings to try and beat the rush. This last weekend doors were not opened at 7:00 am. Employees are throughout the store stocking shelves and pushing around the big carts for pick up orders. The isles are barely big enough for 2 carts to go at the same time and they have displays in the tiny isles that you have to work around too. So we make our way through the store and head up to the check out. There is NEVER a lane open (besides the tobacco sales lane, and it was closed too). We overheard other customers asking the employee when there would be cashiers and she replied in another 20 minutes. There were employees standing around talking to each other about weekend plans, but no one to ring us up. We used the self checkout, which is ridiculous considering our cart was full and well over $100. There is not enough room to bag all of your food and keep it on the scale, which prompts it to stop scanning and gets the light flashing. The machine would stop and we would have to call over a customer service employee for every 10 items to check the cart. She would just swipe her card and clear the error. Then she proceeds to tell us she "does not know why this is happening". Its every 10 items, trust me, we do this every weekend. The self checkouts are convenient if you are just grabbing a few things and want to go in and out quickly. As far as a weekly shopping haul, no way. Dillons PLEASE hire more cashiers to work the checkout lanes. I am not getting the employee discount, I did not come to orientation to learn the ins and outs of these machines, because I DO NOT WORK HERE. Sorry to be a complainer but it is getting old...

Yep, that's reason to pull the car into the big parking area this area provides. The store carries most of the things you'd expect in a small Hispanic grocery of this size, but here's what got my attention: they have plans to open a street style taqueria with sit-down service in the next few months. Now THAT I can get behind. Chatted up a couple people working and they seem to know their stuff, planning to have tripas, pastor, lingua, barabacoa... the good stuff. The store also carries a mini assortment of home needs for the medicine cabinet as well, handy for some of the apartment buildings behind this complex, assuming they ever discover it. Asprin/Advil, toiletries, etc. With the plethora of pizza delivery joints in this complex, you'd think they'd discover it. Yea, maybe not. PIcked up some hot chilis, mayocobas and a Mexican soft drink. Big spender. Enjoyed the people working here, now keeping an eye out for that taqueria when it opens. If you come: it's in the far corner from both entrances. Credit cards accepted, including American Express.

Initially the scanners weren't working on the self checkout register I was on, then whatever stupid AI is monitoring the video accused me of theft because I scanned some large items and put them back in my cart. It also didn't give me a receipt. When I left the store to take my groceries to my car the cart wheels locked up and I banged my shin on the cart. Then had to lift the entire cart off the ground to put it away because the wheels were locked.

I swore I'd never step foot in an Aldi. Never. I had standards. Taste. I'm the kind of woman who…read morealphabetizes her spice rack and judges people based on their cheese drawer. So when I heard whispers that Aldi might carry Egg Life wraps? I laughed. Mocked, even. As if the same place that sells lawn chairs next to frozen tilapia could possibly carry the one item I had been chasing like a low-carb lunatic across all of Johnson County. But desperation does wild things to a woman. I had searched high, low and emotionally unstable. Whole Foods? Ghosted me. Sprouts? Played me. Trader Joe's? Cute, but no. My fridge was empty and my hope? Evaporating. So, with a shaky hand and a heart full of doubt, I took a quarter--an actual metal coin like it's 1987--and entered Aldi on my lunch break. And there they were. My precious Egg Life wraps. Just... sitting there, smug in the cooler like, "Took you long enough." I gasped. Time slowed. A child cried somewhere in the background. A manager asked if I was okay. No, sir, I'm not okay--I'm in the middle of a personal redemption arc. Now? I'm in Aldi weekly. Sometimes twice. I walk in like a woman reborn, tossing low-carb finds into my cart like I'm on a game show. Goat cheese? Yes. Off-brand cauliflower snacks that slap harder than name brand? Absolutely. I don't even recognize myself anymore. No, Aldi isn't glamorous. There are no chandeliers. You bag your own groceries like you're training for the Hunger Games. But Aldi has something better: the goods. The secrets. The kind of underdog energy that turns skeptics into believers. So yes. I was wrong. Aldi, you magnificent, chaotic, budget-friendly beast--I bow to you. You have my quarter. You have my wraps. And now... you have my heart.

There is a small $1.99 fee for a pickup order but it's more than worth it for someone like me!!
