It might make your bottom line look better in the short term, but in the long term having such atrocious disrespectful customer service to regular customers, will see this company go down hill in the future. They think they are being smart, but they are actually creating long term business suicide. I know every company will take my money, but I watch to see if I return something how they treat me.

Pleasantly surprised finding an Aldi in Sydney Australia, we had to check it out, comparing it to…read morethe discount grocery chain that we are used to in the States. There are 599 Aldis in Australia, with 203 in New South Wales, alone. It's large (even though it's considered a 'Corner' store, which means it is smaller and meant to service a densely populated metro area). It has a lot larger meat department than what you would see in the States (though similarly, all the meat is prepackages i.e. there is no butcher on-site). Prices weren't too dissimilar to that in the States, and there was a large center area where 'special buys' were displayed. Definitely some stuff that we would have been interested in if we weren't so far from home.

This Aldi seemed to be much bigger than the Aldis they have in the US. Plenty of great deals and…read moremuch cheaper than the grocery stores surrounding it. Be warned, Aldi is known for carrying non-name brand items. It will be hard to find specialty items or a particular brand.

I'm a regular at Harris Farm Lane Cove and always love it, but a recent experience with a team…read moremember named Zeron truly stood out. I was in a frantic rush to get to my daughter's school musical and had grabbed a gorgeous bunch of roses with coloured baby's breath. The flowers had been sitting in a jar of water and the bottom half was unwrapped -- and this mattered, because we were giving them to one of the leads in the show who wouldn't finish performing until 9pm. It was only 5:45pm, so the flowers needed to stay hydrated for over three hours before they'd even be received. The in-store florist had already finished for the day and I had no idea what to do. Zeron, who was near the cashiers, came straight outside to help. He grabbed a freezer bag from the fruit section, added water, wrapped the stems in tissue paper, secured it all with a rubber band, then finished the whole thing beautifully with florist paper and a decorative tie. It was creative, practical and looked wonderful. He was calm, quick and genuinely kind the whole time. We made it to the show on time and the flowers were still perfectly fresh when presented after the performance. Zeron is exactly the kind of person who makes a local shop feel like community.

The fish was cooked right and the grill marks were spot on, however Barramundi like the Tilapia was quite bland. So I added the Peri Peri sauce it became a little sweeter.

Ok, so I get that it's a discount supermarket and things like service and cleanliness take a back seat to low, low prices on everything, everyday but Aldi take it to the absolute limit. The shelves a scantly stacked in a seemingly random order, I mean, who puts baby wipes next to chocolate and tuna next to seeds and nuts? Admittedly, they have some killer bargains on some of the most random stuff and the prices are really, really good. One thing I can't recommend highly enough is the meat. I kid you not, theses steaks are the bomb, better than other supermarkets and turbo lean. If you've got a sweet tooth, you'll love the extraordinarily large range of European sweet delights. The fruit and veg is inconsistent but averages out at poor. If you want to put your groceries in a trolley, it'll cost you $2 (you get it back when you return the trolley) or you can buy a branded key chain with a little token on it to replace your $2 coin. alternatively, you can drag a basket behind you. The checkout is an experience in itself - it's like Supermarket Sweep on steroids. There's this unspoken game between you and the checkout staff as to who can scan/pack faster. I win. Overall, it's not a terrible experience, you can do 80% of your shopping here but you will still need to visit a regular supermarket. The annoying part is, being in the middle of North Sydney, what you save on groceries, you make up for in parking.

Each week they have a sale of random goods and it looks like they do not disappear if they are not sold! This time I saw a random assortment of ski gear in large containers (looked like an Aldi employee had poured in the goods then used a rake to jumble up the different things), walking frames, dishwashers etc. Amusing seeing people trawling through the jumbled assortment of goods. As for food, the quality is a lot better than what I had expected! Can find a lot of basics. Great corn chips, chips, chocolate snacks, pastries... Not so good olive oil. I clutch onto my items navigating around the store in a messy state and always forget to bring shopping bags so end up holding stuff on the street, I feel just like the store.
