I must be a big dummy face as I don't get the allure the allure of shopping here.
I walk in and go to grab a cart... it needs a quarter. Wait what? All I want is a shopping cart. Ok well maybe I'll just grab a basket... No basket? Ok so maybe I'll just get a couple things and go to Giant Eagle later.
Walk around and the organization of the store doesn't make sense. Random items sprinkled here. No name brands. Everything is cheap yes but how do I trust something that I've never heard of?
Grab myself a bag of frozen chicken, some frozen veggies, some garlic powder and voila got some dinner. Walk to the check out counter, theres only 1 lane open and 3 people waiting, i see employees walk around and you'd think theyd open up a second lane but nope. They scan my goods I give them my credit card, okay bagging time... wait no bags? how am i supposed to carry my stuff? Oh I should've known to bring my own bags. Thanks for telling me.
I walk out about to drop my stuff and realize, Aldi, for all intensive purposes made a seemingling simple process of grocery shopping, difficult. I never knew you could bungle up an operation like this. I complain all the time that giant eagles costs are going up. But looking at fuel prices rise it only makes sense that their costs go up so so do ours. It's a function of and giant eagle still has some good sales. I'll continue to shop at the giant eagle for sake of shopping carts and grocery bags. NO QUARTERS NECESSARY.
