At this point I do 90% of my grocery shopping at Aldi, it's the closest thing I've got to a decent local option. I'll even pay slightly more for some of the specific items both they and Dillons have if only so I can avoid giving more money to fucking Kroger.

That’s the first time I’ve ever heard someone describing Aldi as a place to pay slightly more for something.

Where I’m from, Aldi was the absolute cheapest place to buy cheap groceries and their stores were super nasty and dirty.

In this case it's a name brand product (dishwasher pods) which are only more expensive by a few cents per unit. All the Aldi store branded products are priced affordably.

I love Aldi! Those All Dressed chips are so good
