What shopping tips can you share?

My wife is a fierce hunter-gatherer shopper. A sharp calculator of price/value. She's nearly abandoned our local mainstream supermarkets for Aldi and Trader Joe's - mostly Aldi.

Aldi anxiety: when the cashier scans the groceries faster than you can place them/pack in the bags/trolley

I take an empty box off the shelf if I forget my quarter and bags. The staff don't mind, less boxes for them to break down

I freakin love Aldis! I will load down a shopping cart, and fully loaded for a family of 6, $150. At walmart it would be 300+. Bringing bags let us eat steaks, shrimp, organic, fit and active etc. Aldi is the best!

As a German, watching this is like watching a show taking place in an alternate reality where people have forgotten how to ALDI. Disturbing.

They dont provide free bags but my aldis literally gives out the boxes used to contain produce and such so that you can put your groceries there instead

Thankfully, here in Australia, it is a requirement of shops to label items with a cost breakdown, i.e. how much per 100 grams. This makes comparisons so much easier. But what really REALLY annoys me is the people that complain about having to put the coin ($1.00 or $2.00) into the basket to release it. You can buy a token to do this for 99 cents, but people carry on like they don't get that money back.

Aldi is one of my favorite supermarket to go to. I like it's scaled down, sensible approach to shopping, I'm not confused with 20 different brands of the same damn cereal made by different companies, the bargains are great too and I actually feel like I'm not going to, buy a lot of unnecessary crap. It's a supermarket for people who want to live a healthy lifestyle.

While Aldi says it is going more organic and non-gmo, be sure to flip the package AND READ THE LABELS ANYWAY. Is it USDA certified? Do the ingredients have issues themselves, like soy, or fillers/stretchers, like corn starch in the yogurt? Silicon coated chips, anyone? Look at ALL labels at any store you shop. Do not let the food companies fool you. Another example: whipped. Why do you think companies push whipped yogurt or cheese spread or whatever it is? Because if you whip air into a product, you are not getting as much product. You are paying for volume (air space), not product. Pretty big scam on their part.

I like Aldi because you can find really good food when you're on a budget I'm an autistic man on a fixed income

In the few times I’ve forgotten a quarter and a few where I hadn’t reached the doors yet I’d always get offered a cart by someone who’s done with theirs at their car and doesn’t feel like taking it back anyways

I save $3.00!!! On name brand ALMOND AND SOY Milks!😊👏👏👏 They also sell TOYS😊 and HOUSE WEAR Items😊

Aldi's is a German owned company which is based on German standards from an operational and consumer standpoint. Their focus is on continuous quality and efficiency improvements which is why they are currently on a massive remodeling of existing stores in the U.S. which includes doubling down on offering more organic products not just because it's healthier but also because of increasing consumer sentiment and demand for healthier foods. Most of the interior store footage appears to have been filmed in Germany due to the German language signage throughout, however general store layout differs very little from U.S. counterparts.

Want to test your fruits abilities. Go to Aldi, walmart or anywhere else you buy fruits and veggies. Buy your favorite apple and bring it home. Then slice it in half and set a piece on the counter and just keep checking on it. If its not turned brown after a couple of hours, something has been added or done to the fruit. Not turning brown after days sitting out in the open? Its from walmart.

Biggest mistake people make while shopping at Aldi: Expecting to find everything you need! 😅

I like Aldis, their meat is good, I like their fresh produce, I usually buy most of my grocery items here. There are a few I don't but overall it's a great savings.

5:27 I chuckled when Aldi took a jab at Wal-Mart produce 😂😂😂

27 years shoping every week at Aldi + = savings make me sent my kids to college period !. Joe Cordova Des moines Iowa

At my aldi, you can borrow a quarter from the cashier. Just make sure you return it

I want you to know, Aldi is the best shopping experience I have had! It out does every other store (I have been to) 100%! If I forget something, they run & get it! They (the service people) are so kind, helpful & nice! When I had a return, it was easier than any return I have ever made...their attitude was outstanding! If a successful Aldi trip takes know-how, then I must have it because I have NEVER had a bad time, or hard time shopping there! I don't think I have been in the store yet that I have not see the service people loading shelves here & there in the store. As far as taking your own bags, a good idea. The waste other stores have using paper & plastic products is terrible, wasteful & unnecessary! If you do forget a bag, sometimes you can find an almost empty box sitting on the shelf to use! Speaking of empty boxes, their shelves are the most organized, cleanest in any store I have been in. I like loading my own take home bags because then my food is in groups that I want them in & only as many items per bag that I prefer! Any shopping takes "know how" not just Aldi shopping! It mostly boils down to knowing what you want & where it is in the store! As far as a 25 cents for a cart.....GOD bless the idea...that bull of carts all over the parking lot is just that...BULL! & once again, people show how great they can be....a lot of the time you can give someone a quarter for their cart they are done with, & sometimes they play "PASS IT ON" by just saying...here just take it & pass it on! A fun thing to experience!!!!! I could go on & on about more wonderful things Aldi is, but for now, this will do! L*O*V*E to Aldi Judie

My friend and I love Aldi. They have a lot of stores in Southern California. We've gotten our Thanksgiving turkeys there 3 years in a row. We love all the German stuff also

If you have 3 grocery stores in the same area, it is smart to comparison shop at all 3, likely worth your time, unless you are rich or lazy.

Aldi in the UK is amazing. I wouldn't shop anywhere else.

I Love Aldi 😊 And..Dollar Tree!😊😁✌

If you don't want to buy bags just find some of the empty packaging boxes and put your groceries in them. It is free and they will throw them away anyway and it is better for the environment if you care about that stuff as cardboard is easier to decompose than plastic and it can be recycled as well

...after watch this segment, i'm tempted to shop there at some time... thank you.

I so much enjoy my local Aldi and all those great people who run it! Thanks.......❗🤓💓👌

Watching this nakes me miss shopping Aldi's in Germany. Every store in the US needs to switch to the coin shopping carts. It would help with people leaving their carts everywhere in the parking lot.

We shop there usually weekly and get our fresh produce. Great quality items. Love the cheeses too. We stock up on cases of canned goods also. I hate shopping at Walmart or bigger supper markets in my area when I can get almost everything I want at Aldi.

In the interest of "sheltering in place" due to Covid-19, I ordered groceries from Aldi to be delivered to my doorstep. I received every item I ordered and John (my shopper and delivery person) did a fantastic job. Thank you for your help in these upsetting times.

I LOVE the "NEVER ANY" brand! And my Aldi has amazing produce. The sweetest and most amazing Cara Cara oranges, Meyer lemons, and Red seedless grapes!!!!

Who keeps coins in their wallet? Pocket, coins go in your pocket. And let's face it, if you're shopping at Aldi, you're not using credit cards. Literally the only useful piece of information in this video is that they restock on Wednesdays.

I give Aldi in Brooklyn ny GATEWAY Mall..👍👍👍👍 Thumbs Up! 😊✌

I actually got to meet Karl Albrecht once when he came to Zion, Illinois to my Mom's store that she works at. The moment I spoke with him it was like wow and of course I told him my mom works there lol. I will say this Aldi has always try their best to keep prices down on many items, that's why I like them.

My wife and I have been shopping at Aldi's for decade + and have always liked everything we got from there & continue to shop there.

i've discovered if you say guten morgen in a loud voice on entering the store the staff can't do enough for you

Aldi's was the place to go too get great sales on food years back, but now days with price matching there prices aren't the greatest.

We recently had an Aldi open in my town in Scotland (October 2018) and it's my "go to" for my weekly shop and it has almost halved my weekly food bill. I love Aldi. One huge thing that bugs the hell out of me and is sure to drive me out of any shop never to return is music blaring so loud you can't even think. Asda does this another reason I changed to Aldi... life is stressful enough without having to try to cope with an unwanted barrage of noise when your trying to remember what you need to get because you left your shoping list on the coffee table.

I love the Aldi find section!!!!❤

Aldi is my go to store for produce, its always fresh and reasonably priced. I buy meat, seafood, dairy, household products, everything. This is a great choice especially if your on a budget!

i miss the old days when you knew whatever you bought from aldi was the best price around . not the case anymore. not even close.

At our Aldis here in Florida it isn't at all uncommon for someone to give another shopper who doesn't have a quarter their cart to use instead of locking it back up to retrieve their quarter.Nice people here.

Never been to Aldi but I’m already loving it

Love when the avacado a are 39 cents each . This week 59 cents still great ,especially when you love and eat one daily . Tip sign up and check out the weekly flyer .

Only mistake is walking out empty handed!!

Thanks for sharing this! I love shopping at Aldi’s

Aldi is one of my favorite grocery store just wondering when aldi store will open in alaska anchorage love this store

I don't think 7 cents a paper bag is going to break the bank. Plus I reuse them for my burnable garbage👍😁. Never buy potatoes at Aldis...smell them sometime, 😬they stink and they rot fast!!!

Instead of bringing a quarter for a cart empty out a box and take it to fill with groceries

Most of the food I’ve gotten there were disappointing but I did get an egg cooker super cheap that I use all the time. I love it.

This helped fill in my Saturday night .....

My Aldi is so quick at scanning, they have my items in the new cart before I even get to the front to pay after unloading so I don’t know how I could put those bags that hook to the cart in there. They are so fast it makes me anxious, I think they get bonuses for beating their best times 😂😩

Sorry to brag, but I buy the chocolate butter biscuits, peanut butter chocolate cookies, or the raspberry Jaffa cakes. And if it ain’t Reese’s, I don’t get American chocolate in Aldi.

I LOVE Mashed !!!

Been shopping at aldi since I was a kid in Germany. We had an aldi at the last two places we had lived so when they announced one being built here I was happy! Took almost 2 years to open though. Many people that went when they first opened weren’t familiar with their policies. I saw a couple upset because they saw it as a store full of crappy generic items. I told them about the guarantee so they bought some things to try instead of leaving. I recommended to Mac n cheese! Then a man was upset that he had to buy bags so I explained the reasoning behind that and told him they’ll let him use boxes but to bring bags next time. Then I had a guy try to take my cart and he got angry and pushed me down when I said they take quarters to use and explained why. So in the first week they were opened I was amazed at the new products since we had not been near one in almost 10 years.

Didn't mention the wines- some of them are excellent, often gold medal winners.

Aldi promotes zero waste so you can leave all unnescessary packaging behind in the store 😍

I shop at the Aldi in Mableton, GA. I LOVE ALDI!

i love Aldi i have been going my store since 2014 when build the store when i thing i didn't know if you don't have quarter you can ask the cashier to borrow shopping cart my store does

Aldi and trader joes are awesome

Aldi meats are mediocre and the meat prices are nothing special. I like to get my steaks and other meats somewhere better but usually get everything else from Aldi. Worth the extra trip

The best part about Aldi, is that you don't get that ultra depressed feeling from the staff who are dealing with working ultra long shifts on lowest minimum wage possible while walking for miles over the course of a shift on hard surface causing leg and joint pain. At Aldi, they quickly get more staff on register when they need to, let them sit while they check you out, and pay them double what walmart does. Not to mention walmart isn't really the cheapest any more as most local or local chain stores are often cheaper on food. Really the only thing walmart is good for is as a one stop shop for a wide assortment of items at a baseline price.

Heh. Walmart tried to enter the German market. That creeping sickness was gloriously defeated by local chains such as Aldi and Lidl. And Aldi and Lidl never forgot and have successfully entered the US to spread good there, too and push back the darkness of Walmart! ❤️

Were i live the Aldi stores are always clean and always have fresh friuts and vegetables.

I'm kinda confused because sometimes you show a German Aldi store and the voice speaks English.

Just had to make a comment/statement about Aldi. Here in South Australia Aldi has only been trading for about 2 years give or take. They product a mini catalogue every week that promotes item specials + food specials up to 10 days in advance. In general their food prices are slightly lower than Coles or Woolworths, but here’s the catch, they add a percentage on to your bill which is advised above each checkout wether you are paying cash or credit card, depending the type of item on your receipt it will be identified as either a,b, or c!. Then there is usually a GSP fee on the end also. They don’t have personal checkout areas either, so if you have a screaming child having a meltdown at the checkout too bad, you have to put up with it until either you or the child’s?parent are served. The stores are a lot bigger in the advert plus it appears they can sell alcohol which is a no no over here, something to do with adolescents having access. Most prominent was the fact that they don’t have coupons either!.

Aldi is absolutely amazing! They have great quality fruit & vegetables, actually, often the same brands as the 'fancy' grocery stores at a fraction of the price. Their own brands are of high quality as well. It's so much fun to shop at Aldi since they also have clothing, kitchen and decorative items, such as candles, which smell as good as Bath & Body Works. One tip is when you see something in the ad that you want, go on the 1st day of the ad, since bargain items sell out quickly. My food spending is down by 50%! When I used to work at a school near Aldi, I went there almost every day, usually for one or two items. I am an Aldi's Addict!

Our Aldi has as great produce department!

They are clearly sponsored by them. Constantly repeating the same material. The only grocery stores they talk about are Aldi, Trader Joe's and costco.

I do not spend much time at Aldi and haven't in the last decade, but it's hard to believe this channel gets an official endorsement for them. You can ask for a quarter at the register because "a lot of people forget them," and use boxes/ask for boxes if you don't want to use or spend on bags.

We have an Aldi opening in the next month or two in our area. Anxious to check it out.

Lidl > Aldi

How much did Aldi pay for this 10 minute commercial?

I have been shopping multiple Aldi stores for 40 years, and I have never seen an Aldi quarter keychain. Great idea, but where are they?

I absolutely loooove their gluten free and vegetarian options!

the big tip I can give is, #"if you find something you like, get right back there NOW!! here today gone tomorrow!!" yea I missed out on a few things that were real good … and good price as well!! you have to keep in mind this is a German place... so most of the meats like brats, or summer sausage etc. are real good!! they even had breaded veal!! and is a total air fryer hit with me!! watch for the Ham deals!! I had in 2018 spiral ham for 99 cents per lb!! and it was good too!! yea I went right back later that day after roasting the first one and picked up 6 more of them!! they do well in the freezer!! the cheese cake is real good!! and everything bagels with the onion cream cheese!! a total yum!! the ice cream is good... more like ice milk. but is smooth and good flavor. I wish they would bring back the India curry!! there one day and gone the next!! it was good!!

I absolutely love Aldi👍😊

The raisin bread & bagels, coffee creamers, cream cheese, and butter are awesome. Super cheap & great quality

I always shop at Aldis. Got my quarter holder and always keep reusable bags in my trunk.

Who can’t “find a quarter”?! How dumb. 🙄 I love ALDI, btw.

Ooooo! The shade at Wal-Mart. AND Hershey's. Why so salty, Aldi???

An Aldi Quarter keychain. Let me get right on that. Actually, I will order 100 so I can give one to everyone I know. We need carts!! Don’t forget your keychain!!!!

The great thing about my local Aldi is that they’ve instigated a price war with Walmart and Target on milk. All three sell milk at $1.18 per gallon for several weeks now. Other Aldis sell at $2.22 and up. Egg prices are also very good.

Hmmmmm... Let me show you how to buy more stuff!!!! Consume Consume Consume

I want to go to ALDI, Now!

I love aldi. I go there every month to shop. Where can I buy the aldi quarter holder. I have never seen 1.

This channel seems to exist entirely on stock footage and commercials.

None of that is an issue in Germany.

I love Aldi! They make it so I can still afford to eat. No joke!

Keep a quarter in your car; or a couple so you can give one to someone who doesn't have one. Same for the bags. I keep reusable bags in my trunk all the time. You can buy bags at Aldi for cheap...a nickel for paper, a dime for nice reusable heavy plastic bag. Even if you buy bags you'll save far more so don't let not having bags stop you. You can also use the empty boxes you find in the store instead of the bags too.

Dont know how it is there, but over here the biggest mistake is to go to Aldi at all. It gives the vibe to be a cheap place to buy stuff, but most basic stuff costs the same at any other store and everything else is more expensive.

I love Aldi

Everyones complaining about something, aldi makes it easy so we can all eat. Its based on personal experiance dont listen to anyone

Having to have change ready for your shopping cart as well as bringing your own bags or you pay for bags at the store is the norm in every single German grocery.

I mostly buy eggs and avocados.

everythings prices in aldi is not low

El sistema de usar el shopin car es genial yo ya conozco eso de Alemania lo usé mucho Düsseldorf I LOVE GERMANY!!!!!!!!

Aldi is my favorite. I do almost all my shopping there and I save so much. Great quality at great prices.

That’s 10 minutes of my life I’ll never get back. Thanks
