I only buy the items I have tried that I like. Mostly Fit & Active brands - several like WW but costs less! Bought flour once when I was still doing Farmer’s Market - BIG MISTAKE! Baked goods turned out less than acceptable

@tamartamara938 maybe I just got a bad shipment - I just stick to Meijer brand.

Most in my area were remodeled in the last 2 years. Mine are clean and well kept. It’s close to work, so i go there often. I cant buy everything there, but i definitely have my favorites.

You really need to take time walking the aisles. Some stores are quite small, so there is not always a huge selection. But some good finds nonetheless.

I’ve noticed the newer ones are waaaaaay better. The one by me hasn’t been changed since it probably opened and it’s terrible but the bigger towns are so much better.

The one in my old hometown was recently rebuilt, bigger and better, and I love shopping there when I visit my kids. The one in my newly-retired state has remodeled their old store, and while it is nice, it’s not as nice as some. That being said, they are more organic-based now with their products, and though some brands are unfamiliar, they are still delicious, and they also now carry more familiar brands, such as Hellmans mayonnaise, etc. Their cheeses are fantastic, as are most of their dairy products, as well as meats.

I love Aldi but only for certain things. It's hit or miss with them.

It honestly depends on your location. Some of the Aldi stores in my area are trash and some are gold mines! Management makes a difference

I love the Ole Xtreme Wellness wraps and the crepini wraps. Fruit & veggies are a deal.

This is a great site to gather ideas, exchange recipes & tips, but we are ALL different & we ALL have different likes & dislikes. No one needs to go off on a tangent just because others don’t believe the same as you. Thanks for listening & sharing your thoughts. I just did

I wasn't impressed with it either. There were a lot of things with expired dates or almost expired dates.

The fresh fruits and veggies won’t last a long time from there, since they sell organic. There are some good deals to be sure. Lie the others have said, depends on the management at each location.
