Paid Members Tommy! Posted September 15, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 I only shop outside Aldi for suet & walnuts. Once they dropped the cash only model there was no reason not to. The only other thing I get elsewhere is lunch at work, which is funny because I work there. I like a change of scenery for a true break and the store staff know anyone in a suit around midday is likely from the office and it makes it makes me uncomfortable because I'm a self conscious twat-bag. We had a netto take over the spot of kwick save but it never got anyone in and became a Morrisons in a year or so. It's a supprise as we are a small town with two Aldi and a Lidl now and they are all packed. Off topic but everyone who asks where I work responds in one of two really annoying ways: 1) Do you get a free car 2) Him and Lidl are brothers you know To correct them on either is tiresome and pointless yet I still do it every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted September 15, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 I genuinely struggle to tell Lidl and Aldi apart, their store layouts are exactly the same. They even have the shite non-food stuff (a weird array of tool sets, bed sheets and football goals last time I looked) in the same place- near the back in the middle, just before the chilled meats.

Aren't the families related in some way? A bit like Porsche and VW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two brands / umbrella companies of Aldi were created with a split by brothers, which I assume is where the story is from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
