Aldi expansion

I love Aldi. Such great food, prices and friendly staff. They are doing some branded stuff now.

Hmm. When I was shopping for cheap gin to make sloe gin it turned out that the Co-op's was cheaper than Aldi's.

The association with poverty mcem being that if you're poor you can't afford to shop anywhere but Aldi...

I love Aldi and Lidl by the way. Much better than overpriced Tesco and Sainsbury's.

Everyone will still have to eat despite Brexit. Discount shops will be more popular than ever as prices continue to rise.

So thats all of us then...no wonder they are doing so well. Best keep quiet otherwise those queues at checkout will get even longer.

It was a joke, mcem

I shop in Aldi every week. 30% off my weekly bill is not to be sniffed at.

Don't understand this apparent link between Aldi and poverty.
I shop there because food is of good quality and there is a wide range of interesting choices.
Yes Aldi provides value for money but also a well planned shop and cheerful, helpful assistants.

My thoughts, too, merlot. (except that I wouldn't call them 'scaremongers', I'd call them realists)

Clearly not. Went yesterday, filled trolley £60 and that included meat, fish, fruit, veg, beers and wine. Generally good quality.
Love the middle aisle, always a surprise. If you cycle this is the week to have a look. Wont be long til ski stuff is in. Estimate Asda would have been over £100.
Interesting, while driving down through france only saw many Lidls, but we spotted one Aldi not too far from Calais.

Of course they're not, Teetime. If the scaremongers are correct and we all end up as poor as church mice, we'll be flocking to Aldi for our weekly shop!
