    The more money they make the closer they get to changing to become just like Walmart. Money > everything.

      I’m from Germany and Aldi hasn’t changed for as long as I can remember which is about 30 years. They got a bit cleaner and nicer if anything.

      I dunno. The Aldis I’ve been to in the last 20 years or so seem the same as they did back then.

      Although the cashier uses barcodes instead of superhuman typing on a keypad and somehow remembering the price of every single item in the store. Always thought that was suss.

        mine has self checkouts now. Never though I would see the day. They still pay better because if you work there you do everything.

          Ah yes, and they are actually very good. The little chirp as it registers the item on the scale makes things smoother.

            yeah and no place you item in the bagging compartment nonsense that slows everything down. Or also as far as I can tell it does not go into call an associate mode because you scanned 5 of the same 2liter.
