Sorry but do not understand last post in size they are getting bigger anyway as we see this morning at ADLIS.
If you mean that their cost will go up to the same as Tescos and the others then that will never happen.
How will it all end up I do not know but that is some years away in the mean time we get good food at low costs.
Anyway we are off now to lidles to shop Adlis will be packed out today so wait till they have been open a few days before going back.

I will give Aldi another go in a week or so, but if they still have unstaffed tills and the crush trying to put your goods away once purchased then it will be once to often. No good improving the store if they do not get more staff to keep the tills going.

All the tills open at Aldi this morning but parking was a bit of a mare.

That must have been a long time ago Howard they've had baskets for at least 5 years. Mind you I tend to use a trolley, it's useful as a zimmer frame!

Those baskets must be few and far between or well hidden as I have never seen any on the odd occasion I use the place. I hated those long queues at the tills.

The Q are no longer then you get at other stores the good thing is that they work hard and the Q does not take long to go.

Well I don't like it at all. I use Asda mostly because they give good value for money, the staff are helpful and polite and their merchandise is varied and interesting but mainly affordable. They go out of their way to help anyone who needs help too. So I'm sorry - each to their own, but I like Asda and will never use Aldi

As Jacqui said we all have our own way of shopping but for us it will always be Aldi or lidles .
Staff are good but mainly it is the lower cost of shopping at the both of them.
Some very good posts about this one thank you it has made good reading.
Also a good point to look at is Aldi is in the town which might be of some help to some who live near by.
On the TV news it was said that the public are again turning to town centres to shop.
Like ourself have found out that shopping in the bigger out of town centre is not a saving after all.
