Consumers have long been warned they were going to be pushed to the “point of pain” in order to curtail their spending. It seems like we’ve finally reached it.

    I think Walmart has better deals than Aldi.

    Most of the food at Aldi is close to expiring, too.

      But then you have to go to Walmart. The only I store I have had a homeless person come up to me and beg for change IN THE STORE was Walmart. Aldi or Lidl are infinitely better in my mind.

        Sorry Walmart isn’t good enough for you because a homeless person asked you for change.

        Glad you have the excess wealth to choose where you shop.

          I was just in there for oil and a filter to change my cars oil, largely because it was cheaper than going somewhere and was I broke at the time. I’ve shopped at Aldi for years mostly because their food is much cheaper for comparable items, and despite being to several that were very sketchy, I’ve never had someone walk up to me and beg in a store. Parking lots are a different matter, but in pretty much every Walmart I’ve been to over the last couple of years (again, I basically try to not now that I can afford it), the amount of not giving a fuck by everyone involved is kind of extreme. And the prices aren’t even that great now either.
