Dang, you all are a tough crowd. I ran a 997.2 GT3 to Aldi's last month. Other than charging a 25 cent charge for a basket, I see no problem. Hell, burn me at the stake, but a deal is a deal.

You get it back when you return the cart. It's just a deposit, to encourage customers to return the cart, rather than leaving it in the parking lot.

Yeah, I know. The only problem is I never carry change anymore. However, I do like Aldi. In Europe, they are really good.

I leave a couple of quarters in the car, just for Aldi shopping carts.

I don't know about you, but when I'm hungry and in a hurry for groceries, I take my Ferrari!

Ferrari, the quicker grocery getter!


However, I did see a Maserati at my nearest wallymart about 3 months ago. Guy parked in back by Automotive. Looked kind of young to afford it.

Wish we had an Aldi out here. I remember when one had to use 1 DM in the shopping cart, in Germany. It's probably a Euro today.

It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.

I refer to Aldis as Bizarroland. Everything is packaged (colors and logos) to look like familiar brands but aren't.

Hell I just wish we had an Aldis here in the South Hill/Boydton area. All we have is a Food Lion and Walmart and a lot of Pick ups and farm use vehicles. I have yet to see a Ferrari.

A few weeks ago I saw two left carts, in 30 mph wind gusts, pushing themselves in the Costco parking lot. One hit a curb and stopped. The other, picked up momentum and slammed into a new Chevy/GMC full sized SUV with paper plates on it. It was parked right up front. And when I mean slammed, the cart hit and then caught air, that’s how hard it hit that vehicle. People are dirtbags. I park far away and will actually put up a stranded cart on my walk in to prevent this type of thing. Most do not care whatsoever.



What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone

How do you think he affords that thing?

I recently discovered Aldi, always looked down on it, but I finally went in and knocked around $120 off our weekly shopping bill!

No caption, but I did see a Ferrari, Lamborghini, and a Porsche at our local Taco Bell when we first moved into the area.

I'd be more likely to take a nice vehicle to an Aldi because people do a better job policing their carts. I wish there was a $10 deposit to use a shopping cart at every place that has one. I hate loose shopping carts!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

At least s/he parked in a single space, rather than two or three.
