my mom has turned me into an Aldi shopper. I'm sort of anti-brands based on a sort of weird social philosophy that I wont get into, but the stuff is cheap. Personally, canned tomatoes are canned tomatoes to me. Their produce is typically cheaper too, especially citrus. That and the fact that i'm a tight wad...Aldi is great. HOWEVER...never buy the off brand mayonaise.

My mom has recently retired, but my dad still works and she has become an Aldi's fan because she has the time to pick up the basics and can goods at Aldis then she going to local places for meats, cheeses, fruits and veggies. She believes in avoiding large chain stores when she can and this way she offsets the additional cost she is spending going to specality shops by saving money at Aldis. She feels like she is making a difference to the local economy and still manages to fill her days up instead of sitting at home.

I shop for my staples there. Spaghetti noodles are spaghetti noodles. Some of their items are good but like cosco you gotta try them to know. The selection is limited but milk, eggs and bread are all cheaper there to me. They're all over the DC area.
