ALDI is awsome. I like how they make you put a deposit in the machine to use a shopping cart and you have to bring your own bags. Typical german

I like the idea that there are no carts in the lot to roll into my car, I found all the food to be great. I can get a full cart for 1/3 the cost of the local grocery stores.

omg, Aldi has made it to the usa? I avoid aldi like the plague when I'm in europe. I do like the idea of having to return your cart though. To international people, in america we kick the carts all over the parking lot because we're too lazy to return them. On the bright side, it creates a job for someone who has to collect all the random, spread out carts and return them to the store.

when i loved in holland, all the grocery stores required a deposit on their carts, it was the mental equivilance of a dollar, which is high enough that you will bother putting the cart back

You don't need to travel to europe to drop a dollar in a shopping cart. Just visit Canada with an appetite.
Some are still lazy enough o leave their dollar and their cart stranded in the lot. These become prime targets, like being paid to shop.

i always wondered why superstore/supercentre charged a loonie, and safeway didn't, though i wasn't that old at the time. the best things aren't shopping carts, though. i know that i'm an old man and all, but when someone in the mall fails to return their novelty kiddie strollers/buggies, i don't hesitate to return the damn things for the $2.50. 4 of them is $10. tax freeeee

I wish all stores would do that with the stinking shopping carts. The ONLY dent on my car is from a shopping cart that some lazy **** let roll. I was coming out of the store and watched helplessly from too far away as it gained a head of steam going downhill in a 30mph wind and driving rain as it rammed into the right rear passenger door. I had just come from the state nazi inspection and failed for emissions by one point.
Nice day I was havin'...
