A local story.

Jackson City Council votes to create federally funded bus route from impoverished wards to ALDI

Rather than asking why there are no grocery stores in a particular part of town, taxpayers will pay to bus people to shop in another part of town.

Also interesting that the bus will take people to a particular store in an area with many other grocery stores.

“No maam. We don’t carry pig intestines. Sorry, we don’t carry mullet either. “.

Sorry, Southern joke. Every time we got a new Yankee employee, they would ask about both.

I just did a search on grocery stores in Jackson, MI. There are 40 of them of which one is Safe-A-Lot. Why did they not choose that one?

BTW, we do have a Aldi store about 1.15 miles from my house. I have absolutely no use for that store

Look for this particular Aldis (and any nearby retailers) to quickly go out of business due to theft.
