However, despite of the good salad bar, the hot foods portion of the deli was not good at all. I understand that it is difficult to maintain freshness, but most of the food was dried out and somewhat unrecognizable. I opted for the least dry-looking items; chicken tenders, potato wedges and okra. The first two items were very dry, and the okra was very greasy. Well, at least the bakery cake slices were delicious!

While everything about the actual order was fine, we found out afterwards that $44.97 was accidentally charged 3 times! Called the store to have the incorrect amount credited and was told that had to be done in person. Less than a week later, went to customer service and spoke with Heather. There was no friendly greeting, no apology for the error, no offer to credit my card, no congenial attitude, no apology for us having to make a special trip back to the store or offer to compensate. Was told it could have been credited over the phone if my wife had used her Lowes to Go account, which she had set up just such an account for the order. Even as I tried to make friendly side conversation about her Kombucha drink that I had loved that drink too until I learned it had alcohol, she even contended that it did *not* have alcohol when it absolutely does. In short, she desperately needs training in customer service and how to relate to customers. Due to this error combined with the lack of customer service, we'll be looking for another source next time.

That's my mistake, BUT Customer service reviewed the interior camera footage and confirmed that the item was in my cart. However, instead of conducting a complete and reasonable investigation, they refused to check the exterior camera which would have clearly shown that I left the store without the item, since I left the cart along with the item inside the entrance. I said I left with two bags but I didn't leave with my other item which was on accident. The lack of effort and basic problem-solving from the staff was frustrating and unacceptable. As a result, I was unable to recover my item, despite there being clear evidence that could have resolved the situation. I expected far better customer service and accountability than what I experienced. I know it's just one item but, in this economy, girl bye

ALDI isn't your regular American supermarket and there are a few key differences that help them keep prices down. Starting off with, you'll need to bring a quarter in order to borrow a shopping cart. You'll get it back when you return the cart. The merchandise is a wide variety but they don't have everything and they generally don't have more than one of an item. A few name brands here and there but usually ALDI's generic brand. Note that the quality is similar. At the register, the cashier scans the stuff and then puts it right back into your cart. You're bagging it yourself, making your time at the register faster. You can buy ALDI bags or bring your own. Or you can find a few cardboard boxes from the sales floor for free. There was a time that ALDI didn't accept credit cards but they do know. Easy, inexpensive (not cheap) and a good shopping experience. Enjoy!
