Aldi Store In America 🇺🇸 First Time Canadians Visit
Vložit

- We have been in Aldi Portugal for years but never in the USA, the range of healthy grass fed beef and butter are great. Prices are discounted and Aldi own brand products are great. We are shocked at the selection of food and cheap prices.
We love their beer selection especially at the prices and that they have choices from Germany and Holland. The chocolate that they sell
Moser-Roth is very good and once again great value for money.
As Canadians we would love to see Aldi expand into Canada, to offer greater competition in the Canadian grocery supermarket sector.

We need either Aldi or Lidl in Canada to bring some competition to the monopoly that Loblaws and Sobeys have on the grocery industry here. Just love shopping in both stores in Europe and Aldi in the US.
We agree Naill
I have an Aldi right around the corner, about 1.5 mile from the house. I shop there pretty much exclusively now. Mine has a limited selection compared to the one you visited, but I've been able to find about 95% of the foods I like and the rest I do without. The savings are significant compared to other grocers in the area.
You cannot beat Aldi. We have 2 ALDIs witching 10 miles of my house.
I checked on google maps and there is an Aldi on Arsenal st. in Watertown, NY. So that will be a nice reason for a day-trip! Pretty soon we will be free to do more travelling as my wife, who is a teacher, will soon be joining me in retirement this July. Can’t wait. I have been catching up on all your retirement tips that you have made over the years. Thanks.- Mike from Ottawa
Sounds great! we also found one over the border at Sarnia which would be a good day out for us too have a great weekend Cheers 🇵🇹🍻🇨🇦🙂🍷
Hi there. Greetings from Montreal, where it has been snowing since yesterday (Sunday). It's early Mon morning now. You showed the milk, and my first comment was "Hey, no milk in a bag??" what a bummer ! I'd like to see those prices here in Montreal for sure. We don't have Aldi's here oh booo !!
We forgot to mention that about how we get milk 🥛 in a bag Jeremy thanks for sharing hope the ⛄️ snow goes quickly Cheers ☕️🇨🇦🙂
Greetings! We were thinking of taking a Trans-Canada rail trip from Toronto to Vancouver and we stumbled on your channel! The video of your trip inspired us to put that on our bucket list as well! Just want to say that your vlog was really informative and well made and we loved the tips as well. THANK YOU!
Thanks
Love Aldi and Lidl here in Ireland. All our beef is grass fed so we don’t think of that point. I use a trolkey for our trolleys/carts coin slot.
YES, WE SHOP THERE ALL THE TIME, JUST WAS THERE TODAY
I live in Australia and do most of our grocery shopping in Aldi and we love it ❤
It is said that Aldi in Germany has its own coffee roastery.
Maybe that’s why they have so many different flavours of coffee ☕️🙂
Hi Tina and Norm. I have an Aldi about 3 miles from my house. I go there once in a while for cheese, meat, shrimp from the Gulf of Mexico as all the others around here come from farms in China and Latin America. Irish butter is my favorite butter. The fruits are good and so are the veggies. I also like to go there for the different goodies from overseas. I have noticed that some customers fill out their cart. 🤔 I don't think I could survive on Aldi alone. I usually go to Publix, Walmart and King that have food from different places in the world. Take care. 🥂
Totally agree Tony we don’t buy Shrimp etc farmed in China 🇨🇳 we only buy wild . They have lots of yummy products from Europe not found in other stores . Have a wonderful weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🍫🇨🇦
I really should visit Aldi more often which is down the street from my house - thanks for a great reminder guys!
Our pleasure! 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Hey , you guys! As you probably know, we have both Aldi and Lidl in Ireland. Gamechangers here, for the same reasons as everywhere else. Not just price, but for the exceptional range and variety of foods. All other supermarkets are measured against the German discounters, these days. At least your underwhelming visit to Myrtle Beach afforded you the opportunity to visit Aldi! Every cloud.....Loved this video and commentary. That middle aisle.......dangerous to linger there!!!
Too funny, we shop in both stores in Portugal as they are next to each other. Yes the middle isle had insulated imitation Crocs for $7…..Thanks for watching and have a good weekend, we have been seeing the news from Dublin.
We always shop at Aldi in the States. We are road trippers and bring as much food from Canada as we can. We don't bring fruit, veg, or milk over the border, but we do bring Canadian bread, wraps, and hard cheeses. Our diet is plant-based whole foods and Aldi has the best prices and excellent selection. S
Oh my, this is my dream, have Aldi here in Canada, it is just amazing. I use to live in France and we loved going to Aldi. I sent msg to Aldi USA asking when they will come to Canada as we need competition and Aldi has organic products and grass fed meat as well, oh my
I want Aldi here 😢
Did they reply to you Vivian with any plans to come to Canada 🇨🇦 have a great weekend Cheers 🇨🇦☕️🇺🇸🍫
From Germany I can only tell you that you won't know until it happens. The Aldi family (3rd generation) who also own Trader Joe's in the US is living a very private life and also their business decisions do not leak before the announcement. You don't get any news from them except they pass the lead to the next generation or one of them dies. There are no fancy yachts, scandals, excesses, nothing. We often don't even have recent photos. But we have all reason to believe they are decent people.
Glad you got to shop in Aldi. Over the past few years, Aldi and a similar type store named Lidl are popping up all over Long Island, NY. We also have a good number of Trader Joe’s. Prices are much better than our regular supermarkets plus they have lots of specialty items.
Fun Fact. Aldi is German, created by 2 German brothers, they split up bc of an argument and one got the North and created Aldi Nord (North in German), the other the South and created Aldi Süd (South in German). The Aldi u have in the US is Aldi Süd and Trader Joes is a subsidiary of Aldi Nord. Btw Lidl is also a German Discounter (that is what the type of store is called, its actually in the Name of Aldi because this is the abbreviation for AL-brecht (name of the brothers) DI-scount)) :)
We love Aldi. Don't have one in our town so it's a special thrill for us to go to our daughters- a trip to Aldi is always high on our list!
Great store to visit Candy have an awesome week 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
🛒 We get most of our stuff from our ALDIs. Why pay more?! There are a few brand name items that there is no substitute for so we purchase those from our other stores.
Thanks!
Thanks Stephen have a great weekend ❤️🙂
This Aldi is at least the size of mine in Florida. I’m totally jealous😊. You can’t beat their prices
Interesting trip to the Aldi store. I haven't shopped there in several years. Based on your video, will have to reconsider shopping there. Have been told they have good fruit selection. Will be needing fresh strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, as I plan to make a trifle for Christmas; show my American friends what we have been missing. Carry on!
Oh one of our favourite desserts Trifle hope you enjoy making and sharing it Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Hi Tina & Norm good to see you again and they are very good and getting better take care .
Christopher Barker
Thanks so much enjoy your weekend Christopher Cheers 🇬🇧☕️🇺🇸🇨🇦
Hi guys from east coast Canada. The prices you were featuring on this Aldi shop were quite amazing . A gallon of milk for such a price. Bought 4 l of milk yesterday for $6.88. That is the cheapest priced milk in Atlantic Canada. Cheapest available eggs at $5.99. And mass grocery store bread is at least $3.79 for a small loaf. GF bread for a very small loaf of frozen bread is $8.99. Costs certainly vary a lot with location.
Thanks for sharing!! 🇨🇦☕️🇺🇸
Wow?those are expensive. Hope wages are higher as well.
@@adriandab7017 we live in NS. No wages are not higher, I guarantee that.
I go to Aldi a lot for the German products that are hard to find or are more expensive at our German deli that sells a lot of this. I have already stocked up on Christmas candy and cookies as gifts. Last trip I ran into a German man visiting and he was pointing out the best candy and buying some for his granddaughter. Love their great priced produce!
That’s wonderful thanks for sharing enjoy your weekend Cheers 🇩🇪 ☕️🇨🇦🍷🍫
Aldi is our favourite store when in the usa. Good quality and good prices esp for us canadians with 1.40 exchange rate 😢!! We hey have everything we need on a regular basis.
We love ❤️ Aldi too have a great weekend Cheers 🇺🇸🙂🇨🇦
We have had an Aldi in New Orleans for a year or so. It reminds me of the smaller supermarkets from the 1960s, before Americans fell in love with Wal-Mart 😓 Aldi prices are good, and quality is generally high.
Your lucky to have one it’s a great store Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🍷🇨🇦
Aldi needs to pay their employees a fair living wage❤
Did my weekly Aldi run today. Their prices have definitely gone up but still a good deal overall. Funny, I bought the pork chops and 3 pounds of the grass fed ground beef. They are always the best deals.
We love your channel from the U.K.! (Have subscribed/always "like"!) We are very familiar with Aldi's here. There is a branch in virtually every town. Did you visit the "special purchases" section? Yes. All right. Some of this is "landfill" but a lot is good stuff such as very competitively-priced tools and hardware.
Awesome! Thank you! we go to Aldi in Portugal 🇵🇹 too love their selection of food and have even bought a great dress 👗 there ! enjoy your weekend Stuart Cheers 🇬🇧☕️🍷🇨🇦 Just need Aldi in Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you! You have a great weekend too, Tina and Norm! @@ThisIsOurRetirement
Love Aldi. A must stop on our cross border shopping journey. Best deal ever found was eggs on sale for $0.28/dozen. Unbelievable.
We are big Lidl fans and always stop to buy food wherever we are in Europe. We were very surprised to see Lidl stores in the USA last month when we drove from Montreal down to Virginia.
We see Lidl in Portugal, they are across the street from Aldi in Albufeira. We like shopping there too.
Similar to the Penny Markt in Germany
@@juanmartin7043 ahm, LIDL is rather the same as LIDL in Germany ;)
Interesting to see that you enjoyed your visit to an Aldi Store in USA. As a German I am used to visit this super market chain for over 30 years now. For me it is a love hate relationship. To phrase this politically correctly, I am not the one that HAS to buy from Aldi, however, from time to time I go there nevertheless because it has a special aura. This includes the beggar outside who longs for the Euro coin that is in my shopping cart. Anyways, It is always a good price-performance ratio. I usually buy my everyday essentials from Aldi and everything else from other retailers. Have a fantastic Xmas season! Greets from Meerbusch!
Thank you for sharing we do find their European selection very nice 👍 and reminds us of being in Portugal have a great weekend 🇩🇪🍷🍫☕️🇨🇦
Hi Tina & Aldi, when we moved to the US, from Germany, we were looking for Aldi here. We had to wait a few years until a store was opened close to us. We do regularly go there, but mainly for holiday season's shopping of German Chocolates, especially Marzipan, Gingerbreads, Speklulatius cookies. Aldi's subsidiary - Trader's Joes is another option, but pricier than Aldi. Aldi, LIDL and Continental are our favorites stores in Portugal as well. LIDL exists in the US as well, but not in our area.
Thanks for sharing!! we love them both in Portugal 🇵🇹 too have a wonderful weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
tina and aldi 😃
@@mikecraig9368 Thanks for pointing out- don't know how that happened
@@ThisIsOurRetirement Oops, sorry for the typo- Norm!! I don't know- I hate AI😲😲
Never heard of Aldi, but what great prices: many of those items were about half price (in the same currency) as compared to Western Canada.
Thank you for that education.
Your welcome 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
We shop Aldi weekly, but we buy our meats at Sam’s. We also visit Publix or Kroger for those items that Aldi doesn’t carry. We buy all of those wonderful items you mentioned… butter, eggs, Turkey breasts, Greek yogurt, etc.
I have been to Aldi in Portugal, Spain and the UK. I didn't know they were moving into the Americas. I must admit I don't often shop in either Aldi or Lidl, because they never have the range I seek, and so I always end up having to go somewhere else to get the full basket. I have also got used to having my groceries delivered because again it saves time walking around a supermarket with miles of aisles. That said, having seen some of those prices I may give it another try just out of curiosity. I can't believe the eggs at $1.17. In the UK I pay £2.95 for 12 large eggs and that is an own brand. I also pay £2.25 for Kerrygold butter. They always have quirky gadgets in the middle of the shop. The best thing I bought was a UV meter with alarm and thermometer which I always take on holiday to give me the room temperature and the UV reading which is amazingly accurate.
In the USA Aldi is the third largest grocery store with over 2,200 stores. Thanks for sharing your story.
@@ThisIsOurRetirement OK. Well I had absolutely no idea. I am amazed. The last time I was in Fl, which is a wee while ago now, it was Publix & Winn Dixie, and Aldi made German cars ! 😉It has been a while.
Aldi just bought Winn Dixie!
@@ThisIsOurRetirement My Goodness. I have been to the US a lot but this was 70's, 80's and 90's mainly. Initially with my parents where we had many many holidays in Fl, and visiting Publix & Winn Dixxie was part of it. My mum loved it, especially fresh cinnamon buns. I spent several weeks in the summer of 1980 with a friend staying at a Motel at Lauderdale by the Sea on the A1A and there was a Winn Dixxie advert on the tv all the time we used to imitate. Later I used to go to Ca when I worked for Hewlett-Packard... I think the last time I went to the US was about 2007 before I migrated to Australia. I haven't been to the US since. I really had no idea Aldi had moved into the USA in that way. Well, well. Whatever next? Pingo Doce? Aldi had started opening shops in Australia when I left in 2016.
@@MrGman2804 ALDI South also bought some Harveys Supermarkets. And ALDI North owns Trader's Joe ...
After seeing your video I want to go to the new Aldi’s west of my home and compare to the east Aldi. Are they just the same? I will see. Happy travels.
Yes, they are the same. Run by the same company, Aldi Süd.
Anyone remember the Valdi stores here in Ontario?
We don’t must be before we came to Canada 🇨🇦 Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
I remember them
I remember them! Any relation to Aldi?
Aldi had been a supermarket chain in the Netherlands since 1973 - the Lidl 1996. They brought some stiff competition to the long standing supermarket chains. I feel they have closed the margins quite a bit and though popular, not as money saving as in the past. I don't actually shop there even though there is one not far from my home- walking distance in fact, or from bus stop outside our door to one outside the store, as I like to get my groceries all in one spot. Saves time AND money. I was surprised to see Irish butter in the Aldi. The has traveled some distance to get to those shelves I have to say. Hmmmm, I'm more a "buy local" but each to their own. Aldis are popping up all over the world. As far as Down Under in fact. Happy shopping to al shoppers no matter what their chosen supermarket is called. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀🇳🇿👜
Thanks for sharing Anita , we do enjoy Aldi and like both Aldi and Lidl in the Algarve for the different selections and yes we all have our favourite store have an awesome weekend Cheers 🇳🇱🍷☕️🇨🇦🙂
Hey 👋 Norm & Tina!
I’m still trying to figure out which aisle is the infamous “Walk of Shame”, the non-food aisle or the cookie, cake, chips, and pretzel aisle?
Aldi is our favorite!
We love Aldi Eric such delicious 😋 things enjoy your weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦🍷
Hi Norm and Tina, when you said they save on merchandising by just opening the boxes ands putting them on the shelves, do you remember Kwick Save in the UK, same concept back then, I guess everything that is old is new again 🇨🇦🇨🇦
That’s where the expression of what goes around comes around LOL 😂but Aldi is a much nicer store 🙂
Remember Quick Save in the UK many years ago, Aldi is based on it.
Yes we do Mike 🙂
I live in Canada and work in the US. There’s an Aldi store a few miles from where I work and I’ve never gone in; I usually just stick to Wegmans or Tops. You definitely piqued my interest with this latest video and I’ll have to check Aldi’s out…especially the white chocolate!
The same with me. Every time I return back to Windsor, ON loaded with groceries from local stores - Aldi, Meijer even Costco USA...
Glad you enjoyed the video drop in next time and see if you like it as a store , we just hope that soon they come to Canada 🇨🇦 Cheers 🇨🇦☕️🍷🇺🇸
@@ThisIsOurRetirement I do not think Canadian government will allow competition. Eggs for $1.., milk for $2..... Only bananas cheaper in Canada - $.59 CND against $.59 US.
@@Alex-he1ve Hello, our bananas here are not $.59. I bought 2 bananas yesterday at $1.19/lb. And they were the “organic ones”. They were nice and fresh though,not over ripe and somewhat soft.
we have Aldi here in Australia too they are good on pricing there range getting better
*🥸full view always 💯👀Au 👍thumbs up👍have a good weekend🎅*
Thanks for sharing Billy have a great weekend 🍷🇦🇺 ☕️🇨🇦
Give me Aldi Trader Joes and Costco and I’m as happy as Larry here in Arizona for the winter as Canadian snowbirds. Love your channel! ❤
Sounds great! enjoy your time away Cheers 🇨🇦☕️🇺🇸🍻
When will ALDI come to Canada?! Pleeeeease, come soon!
We totally agree would love Aldi in Canada 🇨🇦
Wish we had Aldi and Lidl in Canada!
Very interesting. So much cheaper than New Zealand, even when you double the price because of the US dollar v NZ dollar. We would never see eggs and butter at those prices, we pay so much more Butter $6, eggs $8 or 9/ dozen.
Yikes 😱 that’s a lot Eggs 🥚 should be cheap as they are used for everything as well as breakfast 🍳 Louise have a great weekend Cheers 🇳🇿 🥚☕️🍫🇨🇦
Omg egg is my main protein...I sometimes only pay 2.20 Dollars for a dozen at Aldi Germany... I would starve paying 8 Dollar like you guys in NZ... 😮
We don’t have Aldi in the Seattle area, we have their cousin Trader Joe’s. There is an Aldi within walking distance of my mom’s place and a Trader Joe’s nearby, but she lives near Chicago.
We would liked to have tried Trader Joes but there wasn’t one near where we were staying Ken Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Even with the exchange their foods are so much less expensive than in Canada. Why is that??
Those prices were just in Aldi Sandi , we found other grocery stores way more expensive than Canada 🇨🇦, we just got Mushrooms 🍄 here in Walmart for 97cents . Have a wonderful weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
I love Aldi when I visit family in Ireland. Wish they’d open in Canada
Totally agree Carol we wish they would come to Canada 🇨🇦 too Cheers 🍷 🇮🇪 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Aldi still has not made it to the West Coast of the US (with the exception of the LA area). Aldi have been in the US for almost 50 years now.
I do 99% of my shopping at Costco, and 1% at Aldi. Costco is 20 minutes away, Aldi is 2 minutes away. 🎹 👍
Great system for saving money!
Grass Fed & Finished is what is important about meat. Grass fed doesn't always mean what people think it does. Just as "free'range" eggs does not mean that those chickens have ever walked outside or felt sunshine on their faces. These terms can be so deceiving. I loved shopping at Lidl in Germany.
Eggs for $1.17!!! Wow
Aldi is just Epic
We agree Mark 👏have a great weekend Cheers 🍻🇺🇸🇨🇦
Barossa Valley wine also
I do enjoy watching your show, but I’m in Canada and I never have to put any money in the cart. When was the last time you have been to a Canadian grocery store? And I don’t understand why you keep referring to Canada when prices vary from province to province.
No Frills grocery store requires a one dollar coin to use a cart. We do refer to Canada as that is our nationality and prices don’t vary that much because we have national monopolies in food, such as the Egg Farmers Of Canada, Canadian Wheat Board and Milk prices are regulated, so the milk price is Provincial but doesn’t have true competition. Thanks for watching.
wouldn't it be nice to see Aldi in Canada? A bit of competition against the large Canadian grocery chains Wouldn't go amiss. I paid more than $3 for a dozen eggs last time I bought them.
I love Aldi.
Hey, how arę you guys? We arę finemand going back to Portugali. I discovered that one can't rent a car cause I am over 70. Is there a way around this problem? Thanks.
Try going direct to an agency like Sixt most will rent up to 80, looks like you are on the Auto Europe site, which isn’t true.
Love Aldi’s!
We love ❤️them too Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
I was SHOCKED to see this video in my feed because I just posted an Aldi Christmas video yesterday! LOL
I don't usually shop at Aldi so I just went to check it out here in Texas to see what all the fuss was like! Like you, my favourite section was the CHEESE!
The store you were in looked a lot bigger and nicer than the one you visited. I hear that Canadian groceries are super expensive, due to lack of competition. Is that your experience?
That is too funny LOL 😂 we loved seeing Aldi in the USA 🇺🇸 before only seen them in Portugal 🇵🇹 the pricing was good however at other grocery stores we found prices higher than Canada 🇨🇦 Have a great weekend Dara Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🍫🇨🇦
Yes. The AI bot knows what you look at and therefore send you related crappolla ads.
Welcome to greed
@@Steve-gx9ot well I always look at Norm and Tina's videos... it was just a coincidence we were both doing Aldi videos for the first time in the history of our channels!
Aldi and Lidl are getting huge in UK.
In Germany I prefer Lidl and Penny.
Costco seems a fair competitor in Canada
You get the cart coin back so .25 or a dollar, what does it matter?
Quarter isn’t enough to get everyone to return it but few would leave a dollar behind.
We mentioned it so you would know which coin to bring with you!
@@ThisIsOurRetirement I only mentioned it because when you said it’s better than stores that charge a dollar, it sounded like a charge as opposed to a refundable coin.
A lot cheaper than Aldi UK.
Thanks for sharing 🇺🇸🇬🇧☕️🇨🇦
They're doing what Walmart did, years ago, putting stores near competitors. Then under pricing their goods. Except Aldi is putting their stores as close as possible to Walmart.
Looks better than the UK!
Now you can understand why Aldi and Lidl are now big players in the UK.
How does a normal household drink a gallon of milk before it goes off?
Not familiar with Aldi in Western Canada. I like those prices. No one out here is doing loss leaders on Vancouver ISLAND.
$6 gal Milk, $5.75 Eggs, $5.45 Butter. Gas ⛽️ today $1.69 Liter.
~ Merry Christmas
Yikes 😱 Ben those are high in Ontario our eggs 🥚 about $3.89 Butter same as you gas ⛽️ about $1.45 but we just got Mushrooms 🍄 at Walmart for 97cents amazing . Have a great weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
The prices shown were US $….. multiply by 1.35 to get CDN $
Thanks for sharing Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
I’m in Washington State and we don’t have Aldis. I can’t believe those prices!
They were great Joan weren’t they we might have to go for a day out to the USA 🇺🇸 to see Aldi ! Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Aldi has been very slow, expanding across the US. They are now big in the LA area but for the PNW? That still could take a while.
I haven’t been to Aldi yet
What the heck are you waiting for LOL 😂😂🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Hi Tina and Norm , do you buy a one day insurance for doing a one day trip ? Or are you holidaying again ?
We were in Myrtle Beach ( video last week ) for a week , yes we would recommend travel insurance even just for a day we are covered for that on our yearly policy Ellen Cheers 🇨🇦☕️🇺🇸
Thank you Norm , yes we always do and people should know that if you would like to go for one day to get it ! We did many times before Covid ! We have not gone ever again because day insurance at our age now is ridicules expensive ! With the money you safe with buying there , you make it more expensive with added on the insurance ! By the way Norm , many things you showed us were cheaper here at Costco ! But the choice and quantities you have there are fabulous! We live next door to them but we get the end of the stick ! I see it at Home Sense and Winners ! We get half the stuff they have ! It is endless in the U.S. of A for sure !! Thank you Tina and Norm , you are always a pleasure to see on You Tube ! Wishing you both a Merry Christmas 🎄 and a Healthy 2024 ! 🎉
Thanks for sharing we hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎅🎄too 🙂
Good day to both of you. After we started following your channel and your travel stories, we have been taking slow long 6 month trips as well. Home is in Vancouver. Currently we are in the Ocenia region for 6 months. Next year we are following your path to Portugal and surrounding areas for another 6 months. A quick question, you both had recommended a serviced apartment in Albufuera some time ago. I can't recall the name. Sounded Apolo or Apex. Can you help?
It was Luna Sol Aqua
@@ThisIsOurRetirement thank you
We there subliminal messages in the video, I feel so hungry .Great job guys

@@ThisIsOurRetirement Be in an Aldi in Phoenix in 4 weeks Will be thinking of you fondly Have a great weekend guys🇨🇦❤️🍷🍺
Have a great time 🙂
Very interesting to hear Canadian perspective on US brand stores. Looks just like the local store in this area. I do think grass fed meat is a marketing gimmick. It is just not better quality and expensive. It does not marble well and the weight gain on grass is significantly lower.
People buy it because the animals are not fed grain, which in not a natural food for cows......
No Aldi's here in Seattle.
What's in your cart today Tina and Norm? I'm sure you grabbed something! 😊
We bought lots Steaks , Bacon , Eggs , Milk, Cheese Wine ,Beer , vegs, spices and chocolate actually managed to spend $75 🇺🇸LOL 😂Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
@@ThisIsOurRetirement. Cheaper than Costco! Cheers Norm and Tina.
We did feel we got value for money 💰 Paul hope you are having a great weekend Cheers 🇨🇦☕️🍷🍻
Where was this store? We go to Aldi's quite a bit. But we have become selective on some of the items we buy. We have been disappointed by a few of their store brands, and at times their produce.
Myrtle Beach we enjoyed shopping there Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
An Aldi but a goody!
Car. Now.
Thanks for watching have a great weekend Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Don't be fooled!!!! We often shop at Aldi in St. Petersburg, Florida and many food items, products and commodities are made in China. Although there's many food items from Germany which we thoroughly enjoy. Thanks for the video.
Good to know! Cheers Mike 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Was kommt denn aus China?
No Winking Owl wine? It's pretty decent wine for $3.45.
We did try a wine it was not bad certainly for the price Cheers 🍷☕️🇺🇸🇨🇦
What's the big deal about how much you have to put in to get the shopping trolley? You get your money back when you return the trolley.
It was just an observation as often we don’t have coins with us Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
European grocers know what they are doing and where to grow in the future vs more clumsy US counterparts such as Kroger.
I'm shocked that they don't have Aldi in Northern California. I wonder where you were?
Myrtle Beach Cheers Dan 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
At least the grocery stores are good there!
They got them in the LA area .... hopefully Northern California will be next.
OMG the butter is so cheap, why don't we have Aldi?
Exactly let’s start a petition Aldi for Canada!
Where do I sign up? I want Aldi also!
You would need to ask Aldi that. Aldi do not do the franchise system. All Aldi stores and owned and run by the parent company, Aldi Süd. Aldi Nord runs the Trader Joe's chain in the US (likewise, there are no Trader Joe's in Canada either).
You are making me hungry! The prices are so reasonable. Canada 🇨🇦 sucks.
Multiply prices shown by 1.35 to get CDN.
Those prices were in Aldi , other stores were way more expensive than Canada 🇨🇦 we just got Mushrooms 🍄 at 97cents at Walmart fantastic deal Johnny Cheers 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
Being old and decrepit i'll shop here close to home in Canada , that does look like a fancy store to walk around though 🙂
Thank you 🍷☕️🍫
Love their Simply Nature brand.
We will have to look for that in Portugal 🇵🇹 thanks have a great weekend 🇺🇸☕️🇨🇦
These prices are reasonable for Americans but for Canadians I’m not sure
Generally prices were more in stores in the USA , Aldi had some awesome deals but still great deals in Canada 🇨🇦
Welcome to America, Tena and Norm, where Aldi’ non food aisle is affectionately called The Isle of Shame 😃
Thanks!
Thanks so much Pat!
