ALDI

Wow! Loved the variety at the store here and it was so cool seeing some familiar European brands again too! Lots of German chocolate brands too, which was awesome to see. Really wide aisles and very well lit store.
However it is a limited selection to some extent — so you won’t find like more than ²⁄₃ varieties of any produce eg it’s just olives marinated in oil or in garlic available here, not marinated in chili flakes or sea salt or all those different selections you might see at Fresh Market or Whole Foods in comparison.
One thing that it is very important to note — can only pay with cash here! Enjoyed shopping here and will be back.

Hmmm… I am having a hard time rating this Aldi because it does not have the variety I am used to. I would have given it 3.5 stars if I could have but since I can’t I am rating it for the Unilocal family and customers so I have to go with 3. Why 3? Because it is A-​ok for Aldi. great prices etc. However, the diversity of items is not as expansive. Thus, I will have to go to the other ones. This is a clean store, well stocked, but I need the items to be available to stock. Normal Aldi things…25 cents for the carts… byob…and for most of us, that does not mean bring your own booze but bring your own bags or you will have to buy some. That is one of the way they keep the prices so low, you only pay for what you need. Of course I would go there again, but not if I needed several items, I would then go to another location. Hopefully, they expand their items!

I was soooo excited when I saw they were opening up an Aldi’s near me! This Apopka location opened a few months ago and has much better prices than Walmart. Of course, they don’t have EVERYTHING like Walmart but what they do have is mostly good to excellent. Their produce is very good and the price is much lower than any other store around. Once bought a container of strawberries there which were 1.29 — went to The Fresh Market next day and the same brand strawberries were 2.99. They have gourmet lettuce for almost ½ price. Their salsa (refrigerated) is delicious, very fresh tasting. Hummus is excellent at about half the price of Sabra at Publix. Some of their canned items are just ok, others are same flavor/​consistency as name brands. Found eggs to be almost tasteless. Baked goods are nice, most frozen items (desserts, fish, entrees) are very good. In short, you won’t find very many name brands but you will save a lot of money and most of their food is very good to excellent. Produce quality/​prices is where they shine.
