People, Aldi's is so good. It's so good that it isn't even a store: it's a pocket dimension where prices make sense, hidden away from a world where money has gone crazy and a loaf of bread costs more than a dollar no matter how hard you look.
Quickly, I would like to list some of the reasons / ways to know that my Aldi's experience two days ago was rad rad rad:
- I bought corn flakes for (let me break it down for you) 6 cents an ounce.
- I had to call my mom, who is thrifty like whoa, to tell her how amazing the store is. Twice.
- Normally you have to put a quarter in their shopping carts to use them, which you get back when you hook the cart back up to their weird daisy-chain doo-hickey. My cart already had a quarter in it. Which I totally pocketed on my way out.
- I bought respectable bread for 80 cents a loaf.
While I was there everyone I saw looked at me like we were both in on some kind of awesome secret; eye-contact was sufficient to tell who was in the club and who wasn't. A secret club of savings! When I was standing in line to check out, I actually was excited about the fact that my food was eventually going to run out and I would have to come back and buy more stuff later.
Also Dave's and my friend Dan Harding had a son on the same day. But mostly the Aldi's thing.
Congratulations Hardings!
