ALDI

LAD Bible source...LOL

Anyways, l regularly shop at ALDI, have done for years. Will continue to do so. They have great products and their rotating weekly specials are a great little feature. Good price points too, ALDI are privately run and don't have to mark up for share dividends.

Isn't Lidl or Kaufland coming to Australia too at some point?
 
Their opening a new store down the road shortly.....I’m going down there on opening day to film the bogan punch ups
I live in grey track pants country

The Aldi effect: how one discount supermarket transformed the way Britain shops

When Aldi arrived in Britain, Tesco and Sainsbury’s were sure they had nothing to worry about. Three decades later, they know better. By Xan Rice

The basic concept of doing a narrow range of things but doing them extremely efficiently has broader application to many fields, investing included.

With anything there will be exceptions but rather a lot of successful individuals and businesses have that common element. One thing done well, rinse and repeat. Boring but effective.
 
A narrow range - its more a limited range of pretty much everything, with everything home branded with a unique fake brand..in a time of popular fakery.

Our family mainly shops there and have for years. Some items are as cheap as the sale price for Coles. Some items, high end chocolate, energy drinks are always cheaper no matter what sale is happening.

The specials are legendary. My son's bike is from Aldi. My gym gear is. They had an Australian Barrumundi special buy last week which I unfortunately missed out on even though I was there at 930.

It's going to get tougher for the majors and I think their tactics are wrong.
Aldi have gone upmarket, better looking shops, more health food product ranges, more fridges.
 
Been saying for a couple of years now that their whisky is great. $28.95 here in Oz for the Highland Earl.
Which I find preferable to the Black.
 
I've been shopping at Aldi for years. I think all of my glassware (champange, beer and wine glasses etc etc etc) are all Aldi brand. If it breaks, l won't cry.

If it's cheaper and saves money, who cares?

I wholeheartedly agree with what Knobby22 said.

Aldi sells alcohol? Black Douglas isn't really high quality though.

Aldi great for specials but their mince is atrocious.
 
We shop there regularly: cheese are good and cheap try they soft blue or their truffle brie.a friend of mine says their tools are crap but i am happy with the ones I got there
They also have items hard to find elsewhere especially German or European goods.
Not everything but most things..
 
I think Aldi is brilliant. The thousands of grocery options in other supermarkets are mostly false choices. They overwhelm you and make it harder to just get what you want.
The Aldi home brands I find are good to very good quality. The center isle products are spawn of the devil. Seductive, intriguing, very well priced. Just dangerous alround. A great source of addiction to "stuff".
 
If you want branded goods and don't mind paying for that then IGA beats Coles or Woolies these days. There's quite a few products they sell that the big two don't sell.

If you want home brands then Aldi does that better and cheaper than the big two.
 
Just opened a Rivet, 330 mil 4.5% beer, 24 cans for $25 dollars and a good taste just like my XXXX when I used to shear in Qld.
