I love Aldi’s. Shop there all the time. They own Trader Joe’s.

Yeah, I was surprised to learn Aldi was related to Trader Joe's in a recent article on FR. I've been shopping at Aldis for the past month and I know it sounds crazy but I've actually found it to be fun. Fun because it feels like beating the system. The cashier will say the total and I will almost be startled by how low it is. It was my cheapskate dad who turned me on to Aldi. The first time I went in there I was unimpressed to say the least, but it is quickly winning me over. Everywhere you turn there's a screaming deal, and the food is of excellent quality. What you trade is selection, but that's okay.
