ALDI

I'm a big fan of Aldi as they do several things other grocery stores don't that help to elevate the experience.First, their shopping carts are locked and require a quarter to unlock which you will get back when you put the cart back! Imagine not having to walk around carts or being unable to find one as they are scattered everywhere. Next, their cashiers are very efficient and get you checked out. They do not have free bags, but they are very cheap (~0.10-0.15 cents for paper/plastic bag). One way they help the efflux of customers out quickly is by having a designated area after the cashier to load your bags which helps to get everyone checked out faster and keep things smoothly moving.In terms of the products, think of Aldi as a compact strictly grocery store. There are mostly food products, and the occasional appliance or other gadget, but it's mostly perishable items.I like coming here for the great prices on groceries and will continue to visit!

I buy salmon from Aldi. Aldi typically has great perishable items. Since Aldi's business strategy deals with value, you will find most items you need. You will also find some nice surprises with regards to other items you need for your house. Make sure you bring your quarter for a basket and your bags for groceries.

Please if you shop at Aldie on 4120 Gaston Ave., Dallas, TX please please please be aware of what your product rings up. Their prices are very in accurate. If I could personally give the store a negative star I would. As one star is way too generous for Aldi 4120 Gaston Av Dallas Tx.I think my first ALDI experience was 10 years ago I've been shopping happily at ALDI ever after. Until I experienced Aldi on Gaston Av. First I thought oh it was a bad day or New employees. Prices were inaccurate, Products stocked in wrong locations, and a disappointing employee attitudes all around.However after 4 different experiences at the same Aldi store at 4120 Gaston Avenue Dallas Texas. I decided it was not just a bad day or a new employee. I thought I would give them one more time. This time I would look for friendly faces. Not just look for friendly faces, but search out friendly faces and people that were happy to help in my shopping needs. I've never had a problem finding a friendly face at any other Aldi location. Yet again the fifth time and a row I was unable to find a happy and friendly employee at ALDI Gaston Av. I made my very few purchase selections and continued research for a joyful Aldi experience, A joyful experience I have become to expect as a 10 year old ALDI customer. I made my purchase selections strictly upon previous purchase of products I love. And products that seemed to be extra added value. So I was surprised at the register when my purchase wise approximately eight dollars more than I thought. Once again produced pricing was incorrect. I mentioned it to cashier. Which was visibly irritated at the thought of a price check. This time I even took photos of sale items. As I'm aware of Aldi on 4120 Gaston Avenues routine by now. Miss mark items, ring out the customer very fast so they cannot watch the prices as each item is being rang up. Shove us out the door. And then if the customer actually looks at the receipt and notices discrepancy they say oh "that's not how it was marked I know I marked it myself.")In my opinion this review is already way too long and I've already spent way too much time with Aldi.4120 Gaston Av.DallasTx.However my last review was removed because there was not enough information so here we go on, and on! Experience with Mark The assistant store manager since 2020 left me such a bad taste in my mouth that I decided to go home and return all of my miss Mark items that I have collected. And a keto bar that I did not enjoy the flavor of. (nothing against Aldi I just didn't like that product)When we walked in I saw Mark the assistant manager at the back register, returning money to someone else that had been overcharged, when he saw me come in with a bag and hand he knew I was returning the items that was overcharged to me A few nights before. He did not say a single word just waved me over. I told him I wanted to return some items. I handed him my receipts. He spoke not a single word asked not a single question. He knew exactly why I was returning the items. He knew because we already had this conversation A few days before, I had took my register receipts to get a pro adjustment. We already had photos in hand. But he said that's not right he hung that signs himself..... I digress. The only time he spoke to me during the hole in transaction was to ask me if I had a penny. I told Marc the assistance store manager for Aldi sorry I did not have any change. I guess Mark didn't like that answer because he cleaned out as much change out of his drawer as he possibly could and then moved on to two 1 dollar bills. I guess that was his way getting back at me giving me all of his change. (LOL jokes on him I like change.) I even have a fun little change machine that counts and rolls all of my coin. So I also took a photo of all of my change the assistant store manager Marc gave me, picture below. And then when I was done with my transaction my husband made his return directly after me. My husband's experience with refund was even worse, Mark The assistance store manager spoke not a word to my husband. NOT A WORD And left mid transaction without even saying a word. Walked past the register one more time STILL in the middle of the transaction and went to the office(we guess it was the office) A few minutes later he came back and finished the transaction without a single word to my husband! Point of the story is if you shop at Aldi 4120 Gaston Ave., Dallas, TX, please watches they ring up your products. A few dollars here and there at fast! Especially when you only have four items. PS, Get there early because at this ALDI they like locking the door at least 15 minutes before close. You have to get the security guards attention to get permission from Mark The assistant store manager so you can get inside to do business. And I'm also making a Better Business Bureau report since in accurate pricing seems to be a daily occurrence. This whole day has left a very bad stain on the company!

This is a review for curbside pickup (during the Covid-19) pandemic only!In general, Aldi is great: they don't have everything, but they stock a lot of staples (rice, canned beans, produce, baking goods, cheap wine, nuts and seeds, etc.), and prices are great for what they do have. They have a decent selection of vegan items, too: they nearly always have veggie burgers, and at various times of year they have good vegan hot dogs, meatballs, mozzarella, "chicken" nuggets/patties, and more. They have a decent selection of organic foods, and their brand of Triscuit cracker (I think it's called "Savoritz") is better than the name brand!This location of Aldi offers curbside pickup; not every Aldi location in the city does, which is why I'm reviewing this one in particular. Their service is powered by Instacart, but the folks doing your shopping and bringing it out to you are Aldi employees, which I think is better. (Instacart workers are part of the gig economy and don't have benefits and often make very little money per job.) They almost always have pickup times available same-day, and most items are usually in stock. I'm really disappointed to see Nancy D's review from September 2020 saying that they don't enforce their mask policy, which is a real danger to their employees. If this policy is still in place, I sure hope Aldi corporate takes notice.

This was my very first time ever going into an ALDI and I will say that the whole Aldi concept is pretty interesting.To start, you gotta pay a quarter to get a shopping cart. You'll get it back when you return the cart to it's place which I guess avoids having them have to have cart boys out collecting carts. The inside of an ALDI kinda reminds me of an Amazon Go store from San Francisco and Seattle. The selection is extremely small but strategically selected to be sold. I'd compare the size of this grocery store to maybe the size of a Panera Bread. It's small.The brands aren't your typical brand names you'd find at like Kroger or H-E-B, Target.. it's ALDI branded mostly.. think of it like Kirkland from Costco.They did have a very small selection of beer but nothing I personally drink. It's a good place to go for some emergency shopping but other than that I think I would going to a traditional grocery store.I will however say that the prices for items are cheeeaap!! Really good prices on basically everything. I'd check it out at least once. See what ALDI is all about.

I discovered Aldi just a month ago and must have returned at least 10 times already! First off, this store is well organized and has everything! From groceries, to kids slippers. It's like a mini Costco. This store is so affordable. The brands are mostly knockoffs but they are practically the same for half the cost! There's a wide selection of produce and they usually have "Produce of the week" - today I snagged a 3lb bag of sweet potatoes for .79 cents!! What a deal! There were so many snacks to choose from. The meat/fish section looks okay but make sure to inspect them thoroughly. I don't think there's a butcher on site so the meat/fish may not be fresh. Always remember to bring a quarter for the cart, which you get back and bags for your groceries. They do sell bags there for 7cent plastic, 10cent paper in case you forget.There is a huge parking lot outside.

It took a while, but I've been to Aldi several times over the past couple of years, and I am fully on board with this place. You can go in with $10 and get a shit ton of stuff. I'm still not a big cooker, so my items are limited, but there are some good bargains in this store. The Winking Owl chardonnay is $3.13 with tax, and it's a pretty good wine for the price. Half gallon of milk is around a $1. You can get bread for around 99 cents. Their frozen flat bread pizzas are around $3, and pretty good. They have 99 cent party pizzas, which I thought were okay - but after eating a few of them I have definitely burned myself out on them. Basically, the necessities you need for cheap!This place is always busy. So many cars in the parking lot driving around, but you never really feel crowded in the store. Also the checkout lines are long, but since the cashier is not bagging your stuff up, they can move in record speed.Things to note - cash or debit card only (you can also get cash back).Bring your own bags or buy one for 10 cents (even with plastic bag ban they have always sold their bags...plastic and paper). Sack your own stuff.The shopping carts are 25 cents, but apparently you get your quarter back when you put the cart back.Enjoy!

I just went to this Aldi's for the first time, after shopping at the Abrams location on and off for years.If you have a teenaged son or young male adult to feed, Aldi's rocks for cheap produce, meat, coffee, and many other good quality, low price per pound consumables and staples.This store is clean and well maintained, and close to my house, so I will be back soon.

This store used to be my favorite until today. People didn't have on masks and when I talked to them about it, they said they don't require people to wear masks. I can't believe they let me walk out , leaving a cart full of groceries behind rather than make others comply. If you think you're safe shopping there, think again! The sign on the door says you have to wear a mask, but they would rather lose a customer like me than enforce the rule. The plastic shields and the arrows on the floor are a farce! They don't care about their customers.

I like coming here but last two times I've been here the same cashier (Caucasian-middle-aged man with glasses) has been the rudest. This first encounter I purchased a bunch of roses and he chunked them head on in the cart. Those flowers never blossomed and I think that's why. The second time was today and he was trying to rudely give my boyfriend the receipt while he was picking up the purchased merchandise. When my boyfriend could not get it he was trying to hand it to me while he was walking off and I told him to wait.
