Here's an informative link for all those who love to shop at an Aldi store.

I hopped right over to the Aldi link. It's my first stop grocery store. I save an incredible amount of money by shopping here. I agree that the produce is hit and miss. And I buy my meat at another grocer because of its great meat counter. But the bulk of my food, I buy at Aldi. When I see prices at other grocers in town, I always ask, "Why are people buying here when they could get the same items at Aldi for much much less?"
