minus-squareW98BSoD@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month ago The Aldis around here look upscale, but they sell mostly store brands. That’s how they can offer lower prices. So, a discount grocery store for people who don’t want to feel poor? A grocery store for people who are tired of being raked over the advertising coals and realize that Aldi O’s are just as good as Cheerios. I can’t tell if the quality is better than any other discount grocer. Much better than most.
minus-squareswelter_spark@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·28 days agoThe only difference I can see between Aldi and Save-a-lot, or similar stores, is that Aldis are always in expensive-looking buildings. If anything, I’d expect grocers in cheaper buildings to be able to afford better quality store brands.
