  Yes, yes. That's why I put the smiley icon there.
  
  That was said to a friend of mine's though...they had no idea.

  Aldi has been a slow evolution for me.
  
  I went in out of curiosity probably a year ago, and ever since have found myself getting more and more stuff from there.
  
  Some of there stuff I don't like, but for breads/most cereals/snacks and whatnot the prices are awesome. I generally only buy 1 or 2 new things at a time in case I end up pitching them (as opposed to a whole shopping load).
  
  I find word of mouth has really helped them grow. Low prices is one thing, but alot of the food actually tastes good which comes as a surprise to many.
  
  If I was raising 2-3 kids that store would be a God send when I think about what our food bills used to be like when I was a kid (had 2 other siblings).

  My bad, I didn't get it.
