When it comes to Aldi, you either know about it or you don’t. Shopping at Aldi is a life experience in itself, but it brings people back over and over because of its great prices. Aldi is an grocery store chain that has locations worldwide. For those of you that have not shopped at Aldi before, take a look at these 35 tweets to become better prepared. For current Aldi shoppers, take a look at these 35 relatable tweets that will give you a good laugh because you completely understand!
1. Study Up
Aldi’s shopping is a way of life. The motto of “be prepared” is the best advice that anyone can give to a new shopper. Let these tweets guide you in your preparation!
2. Name Brands
Name brands do not exist at Aldi. All your products will have similar names, but it’s an off brand all of its own. This is not only for food, but for all products.
3. Budgets
Many people shop at Aldi for their great prices, but many do not leave with a cheaper bill. That is because the options at Aldi can feel unlimited. Most leave with more than they planned for.
4. Halloween Candy
One thing is a known fact, children do not care about the names of candy, they just want candy! Aldi’s candy is just as good for Halloween as anywhere else.
5. Prices
Twenty dollars does not go far anymore in this world, except at Aldi. Their prices are so low that twenty dollars worth of items will fill up your entire cart!
6. Quarter Carts
One of the biggest differences between Aldi and any other store is having to get a cart for 25 cents. Once you return your cart you can get your 25 cents back, but many are unprepared for the quarter cart system!
7. Registers
Cash registers lines are referred to as tills at Aldi. The frustrating part is that they are never all used at once. This must be why the employees scan so fast!
8. Proud Shopper
That receipt is outrageously long and yet the person only spent $88! Aldi is one of the few places left that has such low prices on everything. We would show off that receipt as well.
9. Reusable Bags
Aldi does not provide grocery bags to use, so it is hugely important to remember your own reusable bags. This person was not only happy about remembering their bags, they were proud of their color coordination too.
10. Prepare
Another lesson you will learn at Aldi is that they do not bag your groceries, even if you remembered your bags. They are only there to scan your items and pay you out. If you dare, you can attempt to bag everything yourself at the till but beware because you must be fast. Most customers put everything back into their cart.
11. Designated Area
To make up for having to throw all your items back in your cart, Aldi has a designated bagging area. After the fast and furious experience at that checkout line, this is your area to decompress and organize to your personal liking.
12. Speed
The pace is set by the employee at the checkout line, they do not care about your own speed. It is always 100 miles per hour, so do not try and slow them down because you will lose. As you wait in the line just prepare for your turn and get moving for it!
13. Game, Set, Match
The struggle of keeping up with the employee at the checkout line can become a game, if a person is trying to make some fun out of it. See if you can stay at pace with the employee, good luck to all.

Every customer usually wants their quarter back from renting a cart. So, when a person does not get their quarter back it is like they are living large. Those people are the boujee people of Aldi.

Every regular Aldi shopper usually keeps their designated Aldi quarter in their car, but some forget. The realization that you forgot a quarter is a horrible moment. Their Aldi shopping trip is going to ten times harder with no cart.

The excitement over great deals comes with age. The older a person becomes the more they love a great bargain. This makes the love of Aldi grow with age too.
25. Variety
Aldi is known as a grocery store, but Aldi shoppers knows that it is much more than that. The variety of items that are not groceries is overwhelming. You never know what you will come out with when you walk into Aldi.
26. Middle Aisle
Every Aldi shopper understands the “Middle Aisle.” There is no rhyme or reason to the items that make up the middle aisle. Every Aldi location has a middle aisle, but no middle aisle is the same. This is where Aldi shoppers will find items they never knew they wanted, until they saw it.
27. Middle Aisle Part Two
Another fact about the middle aisle is that it is continuously changing. Aldi is consistently changing the items in the middle aisle. Many shoppers just stay away from it altogether if they are trying to save themselves from unnecessary purchases.

29. Aldi Vegetables
Aldi fruits and vegetables are unique, in that many come prepackaged. There is a reason Aldi is able to get their prices so low and that is buying in bulk.
30. Vegetarians
It seems like this Aldi’s location is not the most popular with vegetarians. Well, it might be if those vegetarians only eat bread!
