Cheap produce.

Aldi's is love. Aldi's is life. Especially when you're poor as fuck.

>>6958889
better chocolate than you can find most places, thanks German food purity laws.

>>6958910
Their alpenmilsch tastes fucking weird compared to Ritter Sport.

>>6958889
I buy fresh produce, canned mandarin oranges, canned peaches, and I like to buy the general hardline items from time to time. They always have a bunch of cool tools and housewares.

>>6958930
haven't tried their alpemilsch. I'm thinking more of the Moser Roth bars.

I did this month's groceries (sans a bit of produce I got elsewhere) for less than $100 there.

And that was with stocking up on some of their European goodies. They had fucking Transylvanian cave cheese. Why the hell not?

>>6958930
>alpenmilsch
IT'S MILCH
M I L C H
REEEEEEEEEE

One recently opened near me. No idea what to expect, so I went for their grand opening (and to try and win a year's worth of free produce). Store was much smaller than I was expecting with far less selection than even Food Lion. Haven't been back since.

>>6958889
The packaging for their cheap crap is more colourful than that of the cheap crap in most places. This actually fools people into thinking their cheap crap is better than the cheap crap in most places. It's amazing to watch.

Staple here in Germany, they have a good mix of cheap staples and also have interesting offers from time to time.

>>6958889
Funny one this . . .. when Aldi (and Lidls) first appeared in Britain, it was somewhat of a novelty, I could fill a shopping trolley to the brim for £40 . . .Brilliant!

The downside was - nothing was labelled in English, it was ten syllable words and you had to look at the picture on the tin or packet to see what you were buying.

It's all in English now which is good and I often shop there but inconsistency is still common, so something you bought last week may not be there this week and you have to go elsewhere to buy it but on the whole, they're OK!

I love the polska kielbasa that they sell there
i don't know what sort of chemicals they put in it, but thats the only kielbasa that i enjoy

Cheap and allows me to buy foods that I can't get anywhere else. Love it, cannot tell the difference between Aldi and Lidl though.

Decent as fuck

>>6958889
cheap produce, reasonably priced everything else, and specialty items, what's not to love?

Great dairy
Cheap other stuff
Produce is always awful. Nothing I buy there is remotely near ripe, and then it just skips ripe and goes to rotten. Fruit flies and mold on the berries.

Overall great if you combine it with a produce grocer. super fucking cheap, literally half the price of shoprite. Their cereals are all top notch, and lots of weird one-offs and german imports. I don't like their meats though. But if you want cheese and dairy they're top fucking notch. And the pesto is amazing quality.

>Produce is always awful.
I found that depends more on the store. Some stores have good produce and others have awful produce. I think it might be because some managers are reluctant to put out new produce from the back until the older stuff is sold so it just sits there and no one buys it. Also the brand matters. If I see Sun Belle berries, I don't even look at them since they're almost always moldy and if they aren't they're bland. Occasionally they'll have Berries Paradise raspberries which I like better than Driscoll's and are much cheaper.

>poor-people bait

Shitty overall selection and their perishables all seem to be of terrible quality. Most of their "inexpensive" products aren't actually so, they're the same or higher priced than in traditional grocery stores. Poorfags just get overwhelmed by the larger stores and make impulse purchases (which is exactly what those stores are designed to do).

>sauce
Process management fag with some marketing experience. I come in your consumer perceptions and I don't give a fuck.

That makes no sense. Shoprite, Wegmans, Stop & Shop, and Pathmark are all more expensive. I've priced all the cheese elsewhere and sale prices only come close for shitty brands of block cheese. Wegmans beats them on milk along with everyone else but not on sour cream. I haven't seen buttermilk at Aldi and heavy cream, h&h, etc. is similarly priced to Wegmans which is the cheapest. Canned goods are all cheaper at Aldi than the other stores by at least 30%. Shoprite only competes with the other stores' prices during cancan. Cereal is definitely cheaper, as is candy chocolate, nuts, cookies, and other junk food. The frozen stuff is always cheaper. Their mushrooms are always cheaper even when not on special and I've never had a problem with either the white button or crimini. The berries are always cheaper and as long as it's a good brand they're very good for supermarket berries. The farmer's markets are better for bakery bread and rolls but that's because supermarkets don't seem to compete on those. Wegmans, some Shoprites, and farmer's markets are good for fresh herbs but Aldi doesn't carry them anyway.
>>6961236
>I come in your consumer perceptions and I don't give a fuck.
I'm not sure what you're doing but you should try pricing the difference between stores. Some products are worse at Aldi but a lot of them are comparable and some are better. As for their non-grocery specials, the only place that beats them is Kmart when they put shit on clearance. I don't know how Walmart manages to have worse quality and be more expensive for the same items but whatever. I missed out on the chisels at Aldi though. ;_;

>>6958957
Tools might be suitable for very light work but generally they're quite low quality. Wouldn't trust them for anything heavy.

>>6958889

>>6961308
Supposedly the chisels are pretty good for the price. I wanted to try them out and compare them to my other sets but they were sold out.

>>6961340
I bought some £2.50 a kilo chicken thighs from there.

Unsurprisingly, they were grim.

I've worked at an Aldi in Australia for 8 years. Not sure how they run em over in the states, but at least half, if not much more, of our regular grocery lines (biscuits, spreads, snacks, pasta / sauce etc.) are made by the same company as the 'real' brands and packaged in Aldi exclusive packets. I know this because we get the delivery notices attached to the boxes from the warehouse. The only difference between Aldi biscuits and the Kraft brand biscuits is the Aldi ones are half the price and come in a box you don't see anywhere else. If you are ok with occasionally getting something shit and returning it for cash, you can buy mostly the same shit from the same producers for half the price at Aldi.

this.

In France, you can see a the production chain number on the box. Most of the time, it's the same as the famous brand one.

Wild guess must be that the famous brand would prefer to dump the price of their product than leaving the place to an another one.

>>6959040
>Transylvanian cave cheese
Shut up!

>>6961463
>Never-been-out-of-hometown
That doesn't make sense either. I leave my hometown often since if you go a few miles in any direction, you go through multiple towns and most of these stores are not in my hometown. For groceries, it wouldn't make sense to compare it to Foodtown, Kings, Food Emporium, Whole Foods, and A&P, etc. since they are all obviously more expensive. I'll admit that I've only been to Acme once so I left it out of my comparison. The other supermarkets wouldn't make sense since they sell different groceries for the most part in the form of luxury goods and/or ethnic foods. For the non-grocery items, it doesn't make sense either since only kmart and walmart sell comparable goods. I don't know much about cheap tools so I only mentioned the chisels but I guess they would be similar to China Freight, northern tool, and other big box store tools with which I'm not familiar with. It seems that they don't teach even a basic metrics course to whatever process management is (b school?) so I'm not sure why you mentioned it when you clearly don't know how to make a valid comparison. I'll assume your colleagues are similarly retarded until after I have a look at what your top field journal is since perhaps you went to a bad school. In any case, it's obviously below financeturds and data monkeys.

>That doesn't make sense either
Your argument is mostly based on small-chain examples that don't exist, or are very uncommon, outside of your specific region. This argument would make more sense if you're audience was primarily from your region (they're not).

"Hometown" is a widely-used colloquial term for the general area in which a person grew up. It is not limited to the borders on a map.

>luxury goods and/or ethnic foods
Based on this thread (and /ck/ in general), a luxury food is anything that doesn't come pre-prepared. "Ethnic food" hasn't been more than a marketing slogan for decades.

>kmart and walmart sell comparable goods
How the fuck is Kmart still even a thing?! Probably because dipshits like you keep shopping there. That company has been a joke for 30 years. The last time I was in one was almost 10 years ago and the stores were just as shitty as they've always been. Also: NIGGER, YOU'RE CLEARLY ON THE FUCKING INTERNET. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU NOT HAVE BETTER ACCESS TO CONSUMER GOODS?
>don't know much about cheap tools

You don't know shit about tools.

A statement is devalued when ignorance is claimed in the same statement. Avoiding run-on sentences and maintaining a singular train of thought within a paragraph also helps.

You're clearly still in school, or fresh out, given your emphasis on it and the site we're on. Come back when you've prepared meals outside of the microwave on a regular basis.

> mfw the caramel brownie one tastes better than anything from the popular brands at like a third of the price

best and worst discovery of my life

Fine for some things (crackers, milk, salt, chips, etc.) but they don't have much of a selection and the cheese is terrible.

>>6961977
the idea is that you buy cereals, pasta, potatos, canned food, etc at aldi, and with the money you save you go to a cheese shop and buy some real french or italian or swiss or portoguese cheese

I don't like going in there because of all the tasteless rednecks and the dumb shit they can be overheard saying.

"Sweet Baby Ray's is sooooo good! Best dang BBQ sauce there is!"

Can't believe you can't use a credit card there, I hate wasting my cashback perks on my card. Have to use debit or cash instead. Shopping is p good there especially for canned goods and I don't think their meat selection is too bad.

>>6961463
Wegman's is the Radiant Christ-tier of grocery stores.

>>6961992
>Cheese shop

>Implying flyover towns where Aldi are typically located also have a "cheese shop"
>Implying flyovers don't burn their saving and then some on gas for their massive truck going to said "cheese shop"

I usually get the same stuff from them...

Chocolate, then I top off any baking needs like flour, grab some pizelle, restock condiments and pickles, buy only fruit or veg on sale except for baby carrots, get some tuna and chefs cupboard gumbo soup, pasta if I'm out, pepperoni, toilet paper, then I spend a half hour looking at their cheese/imports and end up with fresh mozz, sausages, other cheese, plenty of pizza, and some dessert. Plus they have whole milk yogurt now and sometimes I get chocolate almond milk...

Their pizza is the best and cheapest where I live.

>>6962102
The sad thing is I live in wisconsin and there is NOT a decent cheese shop around my town. You can drive 30mins to a cheese place but not walk or takenthe public bus. Cheese in other stores is way overpriced. Trigs especially..

>>6962117
So, yes, there is a cheese shop near you but the problem is that you live in the midwest without a car.

>>6962055
are you saying 'flyover towns' don't have a delicatessen store?

>>6961948
>Your argument is mostly based on small-chain examples that don't exist, or are very uncommon, outside of your specific region. This argument would make more sense if you're audience was primarily from your region (they're not).
And where is your data showing that regionally Aldi's "'inexpensive' products actually aren't so?" You provided no information other than some appeal to authority of which I questioned the validity of with your inability do a simple comparison.
>Based on this thread (and /ck/ in general), a luxury food is anything that doesn't come pre-prepared.
I'm talking about places like Harrods for luxury foods not some /ck/ definition.
>"Ethnic food" hasn't been more than a marketing slogan for decades.
I've never said that it was. What I did say is that it doesn't make sense to compare small supermarkets that mostly sell goods catering to certain ethnicities which Aldi doesn't carry.
>How the fuck is Kmart still even a thing?! Probably because dipshits like you keep shopping there. That company has been a joke for 30 years. The last time I was in one was almost 10 years ago and the stores were just as shitty as they've always been. Also: NIGGER, YOU'RE CLEARLY ON THE FUCKING INTERNET. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU NOT HAVE BETTER ACCESS TO CONSUMER GOODS?
I see that you have no reading comprehension nor do you follow retail in the US. If you did you would know that it's because Sears Holdings Corp is a real estate company. While they hold this property, it makes sense for them to generate some revenue. I've never said that I lack access to other retailers nor did I not say that it was a joke. How else could it not be with Lampert running it? How difficult is it for you to understand that I'm solely comparing two stores that sell similar quality non-grocery goods as Aldi does?

>>6961948
>>6962210
continued
If you're going to make a comparison on the price of goods, then you need to use the same or similar quality of good in order for the comparison to be valid. I've ignored online retailers as Aldi does not sell online. What exactly is your issue with this and why can't you focus on my statements instead of making assumptions?
>>don't know much about cheap tools
I don't know about cheap tools. What's the problem with that? Aldi does sell tools so it makes sense to at least acknowledge why I left it out of the comparison.
>>wants to buy a pack of chisels at Aldi's
>You don't know shit about tools.
It's clear that you don't know shit about tools. There's an obvious reason why I only mentioned the chisels.
>A statement is devalued when ignorance is claimed in the same statement. Avoiding run-on sentences and maintaining a singular train of thought within a paragraph also helps.
That's not a run-on sentence. Learn what a conjunction is. If you don't want me make ignorant statements about you, then don't use an appeal to authority nor an ad-hominem attack on my wealth and lack of visits to flyover country. My train of thought is well maintained as I specifically focused on showing why I mentioned those chains, why I didn't mention the others, and why that's important to making a valid comparison.
>You're clearly still in school, or fresh out, given your emphasis on it and the site we're on. Come back when you've prepared meals outside of the microwave on a regular basis.
I see that you have no problems with making ignorant statements yourself. Also neither of those is true about me.

>>6962209
Fuck yea I am. HAve lived in several and none of them had a dedicated deli. Some entire counties rely on one Wal-Mart for all their groceries.

Well the tools obviously they are on the low end of the food chain. I havent bought any hand tools or anything like that. I bought the bike mechanics tool kit which was very usable.

Nobody buys hardlines at my Aldis, so I literally just wait till things go on clearance.

Like I bought a grill chimney starter for 5$, bought their badass LED flashlight for 7$, bought their bluetooth heart rate monitor for 12$, over the years bought a full set of their LED glowing glass christmas ornaments, I got a mechanics creeper for 6$, ~.001 electronic calipers for 5$

Its like walking into harbor freight, but with everything on clearance.

Everything about it looks and feels cheap. I'm not a snob and I'm definitely not rich either, but most of the stuff I bought there (from canned food to fruit and baked stuff) tastes... cheap (to put it plainly) and bland.

When it comes to German supermarkets I prefer Kaufland, it's a good mix of it's own brand items that a re both cheap and good quality. The strange thing about it is that every country I've been to (from Bulgaria to the Czech Republic) the stores are very spacious, nicely lit and with a really nice selection of goods. But when I visited it in Germany, it was really shitty and dingy, with very cramped aisles and very few options. very disappointed.

I worked in Aldi in Denmark years ago and it was the most underpaid and ungrateful job I've ever known. They worked us like fucking slaves and weren't afraid to break a few laws doing it.
One memorable case was the woman who called in sick and was informed she'd be fired if she didn't show. She told them she had diarrhea and couldn't sit at the register for hours. They told her to wear a diaper.

>>6962224
Why are you so mad? It's Aldi's business how much they pay their employees. I don't know how aldi works in America, but here there are like a handful employees in the store and they do cashier work and sometimes unbox new stuff etc, they work around the store in turns I guess. In Walmart, you literally have guys standing at the front door saying "hi how are you" all day and I bet those guys get minimum wage.
Aldi is so successful because they keep their business as big as possible but as small as necessary to make a good profit. And that means they won't afford hiring store greeters, grocery baggers, and whatever other shit Walmart has. They have a few employees who do everything, and they get paid as such. If you're mad about not making that much money, why don't you apply at aldi? Or are you scared they won't hire you :^)

>>6966938
Cashiers and baggers suck for the most part these days. They're always crushing and breaking shit.
>>6962224
Aldi thinks they do deserve that much money and it's their money to give out, not yours. Why not hit them up for that easy jump in pay? They always seem to be hiring.

Your promoting a generation of weak who need to be coddled. No one should expect a living wage.

We? You mean Aldi. It's not like you pay them with tax money or anything. It's just Aldi paying them.
My older brother is like 30 and jobless and lives with my parents. That's much worse than getting a little overpaid. You're just mad because you wanted to make big money but ended up in a shitty minimum wage job. Probably something like a security guard where you just sit around doing nothing the entire shift.

>>6967168
You could get paid more if you just apply to Aldi. They always seem to be hiring.

>>6967190
This is true, 13 months after being there you get 1 dollar raise.
(which is 13 dollars a hour after a year of working there)

>not bringing your own bag
>so lazy, that you'd pay someone to pack your groceries
I guess america is not ready for aldi yet

the chop meat is horrible tbh fam, what u guys think of it?

>>6958889
Meat = Shit
Candy/Chocolate = God tier
Noodles = The best
Veggies/Fruits = Very good

Good thing i have Penny Markt, Combi, Jahns, Lidl, Edeka and Netto very near by.

>>6967633
>Candy/Chocolate = God tier
No, their chocolate is shit.

>>6967149

Of course Comrade. You're a red-blooded flag saluting not-at-all-Communist!

>>6967597

Enjoy your Millville nigger products.

This seems more your speed, pic related.

Why are poor people always so judgmental and angry?

>>6967868
They've been manipulated by corporate interests into hating other poor people. It's an American thing, more specifically, it's a flyover thing. They'll viciously attack an 80 year old woman who gets $100 a month in public assistance, yet no one will say shit about the White Trash Mart that just got a $50 million tax break to open up shop. It's sick really. People here making $1 above minimum wage will turn around and tell minimum wage workers that they don't deserve to eat or have shelter. Shit is crazy here.

>>6968217
But the self-made CEO of some fast food restaurant said I'll be a millionaire like him too, if I only support putting poor people in work camps until they stop being poor.

>>6967868
Haha except Im not poor thats whats great about American annyone can become rich if you work hard enough. It's the land of opportunity. Don't be mad because you have to wait 6 months to be seen by a doctor in your shithole country.

The cheese puffs at Aldi are fucking amazing and it's less than dollar for like 8 ounces. They also have really good generic oreos. I usually get snack foods and yogurt from Aldi, and produce from other stores. I don't cook much.

>>6968241
Being unironically this confident in the american dream

>>6968308
Don't like the American dream? Then leave. Go live the European reemed asshole dream you faggot

>>6968217
Nah, they don't go after the old lady that gets the public assistance, they'll go after the black factory worker's family that actually uses food stamps to buy real food, but not say shit about the Trailertrash Mc3CartonsofPallMallsaday family that uses their food stamps on Doritos and other garbage.

>i spend most of my free time on an image board
>i am successful

Pick one.

>>6968382

Yes yes, whitey is the devil, back to /pol/

>>6968234

>people who start a business from the ground up ending up spitting on poor people

Untrue, I employ a great deal of people and give them family meal every single night. I suppose when you've been a "victim" or "systematic racism" you don't have the means to provide for yourself in any meaningful way.

Yes, it's America's fault all niggers are disgusting animals. Africans hate the way American bred niggers act, even the best of them.

The funniest thing about wealthy black people is that they're nearly always conservative and look down on their own people the most, other than pointing the finger and blaming others for their shitty situation in life.

Getting very far off topic though, Aldi's carries the lowest tier food (nutritionally speaking, and hygienically) in the USA. Hands down. Shopping at a road-side vegetable stand is safer.... that's saying an awful lot.

>>6968395
Not from /pol/.
Not non-white either.

Just posting what I've seen racist poor people do. (Which is mostly white people, but a few of the Mexican pull that bullshit too.)

>>6968450

>I'm white

Your ethnomasochism disgusts me.

Grow a backbone.

>>6968460
>Hurr you must hate yourself for being white

Looks like I'm not the one that needs to fuck off to /pol/, buddy.

I don't hate my skin color.

>>6958889
I pick up some produce here and an asian market. All my other grocery shopping is done at Costco

>>6968617

Skin color has nothing to do with you hating the culture you were raised in, it doesn't change the fact you are very much a product or your generation, arguing on behalf of others that would sooner fuck you over than be your friend.

You'll grow up one day, you'll understand you wasted your entire youth worshipping the wrong things.

>>6961131
Dumb frogposter.

>>6969107
>Skin color has nothing to do with you hating the culture you were raised in,

Grasping at nonexistent straws

>Arguing on behalf of others.

Not doing that either.

Eventually you're gonna run out of straws to grasp for.

>You'll grow up one day

What is something someone who knows nothing would say to seem as if they're intelligent for 9 quintillion dollars, Alex.

>>6966447
Preston's region.
You?

>>6969137

>who knows nothing

There's universal facts outside of tumblr about racism and self hatred?

Nice reply friend.

:^)

>>6966447
Dandenong. 8 years with Aldi, pretty comfy tbh. It's all about getting a good store manager and everything else falls in line behind that.

>>6964891
some of the chocolate is imported dumdass

>>6969533
>HURR LET'S BRING UP A IRRELEVANT WEBSITE BECAUSE EBIN MAYMAY

Confirmed for pseudointellectual pedantry.

>>6970986

Foods imported to the US aren't subject to European Union food laws because it is made for export, the laws that apply to those products are USA laws.

>>6971004

>implying it's not true and you're just a disgruntled fatty everyone used as a cum towel in college

Enjoy your cats

>>6971123
>Hurr you called me out on my /pol/tarded pseudointellectual pedantry so now I'm gonna grasp at even more straws and call you a fact-denying tumblrina.

Keep digging that hole. The imaginary straws you're grasping for won't get you out.

Sort of like how blaming retarded tweens on tumblr for "everything wrong in the world" won't actually make you be intelligent.

>>6969137

Lol not sure what you two are fighting about but he actually made a statement.

Your "grasping for straws" argument is the epitome of what you are accusing him of, no argument at all.

Stop nagging on 4chan idiot.

>>6971272
>He actually made a statement.

Lolno

"ethnomasochism" is a /pol/tard meme

>>6958889

all other stores are a ripoff

>>6971365
Tasteless flyover confirmed.

>>6966938
>make them bag their own groceries with bags you make them buy in store

That is German customer service for you.
