ALDI

Rad! The German supermarket behemoth and owner of Trader Joe’s has established a presence in the States that harks to its Teutonic roots. Situated in a building that more closely resembles a bank or 1960s Danish furniture purveyor, Aldi blends so seamlessly into the landscape that you might miss it while you’re driving to experience a taste of a popular European shopping experience, a nice touch, having the architecture perfectly complement the retailer’s low-​key approach to groceries and produce.
Not everything is priced at rock-​bottom levels. A gallon of milk, for instance, was $ 3.39, which is more expensive that it’s Trader Joe’s counterpart ($ 2.99/gallon). But much of the produce, the fruit in particular, was unbeatable in terms of cost.
You might have to deal with less variety than your typical American big-​box store or wholesale shopping club, but there are fantastic deals here that’ll make you glad you sought out the nondescript market.
Just note, they don’t take credit cards.

If you don’t care about name brand food then this is the place to go. Aldi is like a hidden gem in Union. Depending on what day and time you go will depend on the crowd. Bring a quarter for a shopping cart (which you can get back) and plenty of bags for your groceries. You have the option of purchasing bags but why when you can just bring them from home. Parking is plenty and staff is nice. A pretty good amount of food selections and sometimes you will find a name brand or two.

I have been here before, but not for groceries. I often wonder about food quality or food sources when food is that inexpensive. They do cut a lot of costs with the no frills approach to grocery stores, with a pay for cart system, buy or bring your own bags, and a basic looking store. Its always crowded and the lines tend to be long, only ever one or two cashiers open.
I only buy select things from here — paper plates and garden supplies, they always seem to have a good selection of outdoor plants and bulbs, as long as you come when the stuff first arrives they tend to have a pretty good stock. The store is always clean and staff have always been friendly.

This store is great, The prices are good and they do have some name brand items in the store as well. Bring your own bags or you could buy from them as well .10 cents for a plastic bag or .05 cents for a brown paper bag. Sometimes they may have 1 cashier open, but they are fast and accurate and the prices you see is what you pay.
Get a cart full of groceries less then the big supermarket chains.

My first time here… I didn’t even know what Aldi was until I checked their website. Pretty accurate description. Not a huge selection, and smaller than most supermarkets, but great prices. You might not be able to get everything you need here but it definitely covers the basics. I stopped in bc the Shoprite that was within walking distance of me moved, and this is right on my way home. I ran in to pick up three items — loaf of bread, mozzarella, and liquid eggs (like Egg Beaters but they had a different brand). Had all the items I needed, and picked up dog biscuits too. Whole order came to under $ 8. Store was clean and quiet. I would have given 5 stars, but there was only 1 cashier open (although she was nice and super quick so it wasn’t an issue) and they could do with some music in the store to combat the warehouse-​like atmosphere. If you go, make sure to bring your own bags, quarter for the cart (returned to you when you return cart), and bring cash or a debit card (not credit). They use simple ideas like these to keep costs low. Hey, if it keeps prices low I’m all for it! :-)

It’s clean, and i’m fairly impressed with the produce, but the selection of other stuff here is inconsistent, so I can’t go there with an ingredient list for a recipe and expect to find everything I need. That being said, I can find unexpected treats at good prices.
I do like that you have to «rent» the shopping cart for a quarter, so they aren’t all over the lot and they have to pay someone extra to take care of that. I also like that they «encourage’ you to bring your own grocery bags by charging you for theirs. Americans aren’t used to this, but they’ve been doing it in places like Australia for something like a decade now. Extra incentive to go green!

This store is absolutely fabulous. What I love most is that I am able to get what I need, and get out very quickly. The store is very clean. I would say I am able to purchase about 70% of my groceries here at a huge savings over regular grocery stores. I also don’t have to circle the lot 16 times to park!

weekly shopper at this location. exceptionally clean store and a super friendly staff. business has sure picked up since they opened now that the secrets out. they cannot really be beat on most of their produce prices by major food chains. i like the aldi brands too. high on quality low on cost.

Aldi Supermarkets, an international chain of foodmarts, is difficult to envision without seeing for yourself. The store is too small and poorly stocked to be the only stop in a weekly quest to feed the family. You will see very few familiar brands; a lot of private label generic items. Many of these «almost» brands are offered at marginally lower prices. «Frills» like grocery bags are available for purchase; credit cards are NOT accepted. The store was clean when last visited, but understaffed. Opinions regarding the Aldi concept may vary, but personally, I don’t get it. Further, with Union Shop Rite only a few blocks away, the decision to locate another glorified convenience store here is questionable from a business perspective. The parking lot is never full, even during their opening week, and seems to attract fewer and fewer shoppers with each passing week. Time will tell.
