Maybe this will start a trend of businesses letting their cashiers sit down.

The majority of checkouts at my local Aldi are self-service; I think Walmart might have started that trend.

I’ve seen a few cashiers at other places. Granted they were all older so maybe had a reasonable accommodation to sit, but maybe… Maybe…

It’s required by state law in California

I compared Aldi and Walmart in my area. They came out about the same. I wonder why that is?

wildebeesties ,

Idk. Our Aldi’s is mostly cheaper. On some things where they’re priced similarly, Aldi’s still has the better quality (at least produce). I’ve tried shopping at our Walmart for years but can’t cause the produce is horrendous. I’m not even looking for anything amazing- but can’t shop there cause the produce is either empty, half rotten, or other issues. Plus it’s just faster for me to get in and out of Aldi’s than Walmart and a better experience overall. I go to Meijer if I need to get anything non-grocery related or not at Aldi.

I have the same experience. The Massachusetts Walmart are very expensive.

I compared Walmart, Target, the next big brand and the local supermarkets.

Walmart was always mid-level. The only thing that was cheaper were non-groceries.

My local supermarket (WinCo) was the cheapest while still selling quality brands.

Because Aldi is a scam perpetuated by the “never-walmart” crowd.

Funny how the “never-walmart” crowd always bitches about not having enough money, too.

Useful idiots, I guess.

I haven’t heard of half the us supermarkets mentioned in this article lmao

For chain grocery stores, there’s only a handful of companies but you likely are familiar with the names they might use locally.

We have an amazing and diverse country. I highly recommends stretching out and seeing more of it!

Most of them are owned by Kroger.

I did nearly all of my shopping at Aldi when I was unemployed. Now I have a job and Aldi is still great, no reason to spend more at other grocery stores. I genuinely like a lot of their store brand stuff too

WhatAmLemmy ,

Most of their store brands come from the exact same farms and factory lines as the expensive brand name stuff. Corporations want you to believe there’s a difference but the marketing budget (and bonuses) is what you’re paying extra for — wasn’t the case in the 90’s, but thanks to decades of corporate cost cutting, consolidation, and homogenization, that IS the case in the 2020’s.

The rule of thumb is the more complex the recipe the greater the deviation. Crushed tomatoes? Possibly zero difference. Sugar cookie? Probably 5% difference (that most won’t even notice). Elaborate cookie? As larger difference as between any other brand.
