“Awesome prices, amazing sales, a gift shop, floral department, restaurant, great meats and beautiful produce..... But I love the Wadsworth store especially for its baking section!!! There are amazing flavorings and supplies!! None of the other Buehler's carry those. I don't have to do Walmart anymore... Yay!”
“A very busy store on this Sunday morning with people exchanging quarters for carts and bringing their reusable shopping bags. Same layout as other stores with commercial baked goods, dry goods, produce, dairy, deli, canned and boxed grocery, kitchen and home cleaning, butchery, frozen and beer/wine. I can always do well with consistent core items and lots of options. The self-checkout worked well and I was on my way.”
“Stepping into Aldi is like waking up in a fever dream where everything is 30% cheaper and nobody questions why there’s a bin full of ski masks next to the organic avocados. The moment you shove a quarter into the cart lock, you’re transported into a lawless utopia where you can buy a week’s worth of groceries, a lawn chair, and a medieval flail, all while making eye contact with a man who looks like he’s seen the future and didn’t like it. The aisles are an adventure—turn left, and you’re in the Land of Discount Dairy, where cheese costs less than a handshake. Turn right, and suddenly you’re face-to-face with a bin full of garden gnomes dressed as firefighters. Why? Why not? Aldi doesn’t explain itself. It simply is. The checkout process moves at warp speed, like if Sonic the Hedgehog and a Wall Street stockbroker had a child who was raised by a conveyor belt. The cashier makes direct eye contact, scans your entire cart in 4.3 seconds, and suddenly you’re in a frantic game of “How Fast Can You Bag Everything Before You Lose Custody of Your Child?” Meanwhile, an elderly woman behind you is buying 14 cans of pickled beets and a space heater, and you just have to accept that. And let’s talk about the Aldi Finds aisle—the Wild West of retail. One day, it’s full of inflatable hot tubs and samurai swords. The next, it’s an unsettling collection of decorative birdhouses and unbranded air fryers. This aisle follows no known laws of time or physics. I once saw a guy pick up a welding mask and a kayak, and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. In conclusion, Aldi is the grocery store equivalent of finding a $20 bill in a coat you haven’t worn in years, but also realizing the coat now contains a map to Atlantis. You don’t question it. You simply enjoy the ride. 5 stars, infinite chaos, will return.”
“Its Aldi. You go there, you buy food, you live with semi-confidence that you got the best price you could get on that food. Then you buy a mattress pad and waffle maker, because, you know, its Aldi.”
“Famous low-cost grocery. Pay 25 c for the shopping cart but refundable when finished. Bring your own bags or purchase theirs. Good fruits/veggies, dairy, meat & fish. Limited selection overall.”
“I stopped by the acme in fairlawn ohio to grab some food for the weekend. I wanted some burgers so grabbed some ground beef. Then got some buns, a pack of eggs because love having an egg on my burger, then some cheese. Also grabbed some fresh produce for the mornings. Then got some fresh muffins for brunch and/or after dinner snack. Store was clean, prices weren't that bad and staff was friendly. If your in the area go check out! Also had my nephew with me and picked up some little toys for him but he loved ringing the cow bell the most!!!”
“Great store for weekly deals. When I can't find what I am looking for elsewhere, Marc's usually has it at an affordable price. Customer service employees and the Deli department employees are the best. Don in the deli department is an asset and knows the meats and cheeses like no other.”
Walmart just launched Realm, its new 3D online shopping platform. To help you visualize what that means, imagine a virtual mall packed with bright colors, wacky landscapes, and cartoon avatars wandering around. Realm lets you browse "digital doubles" of real Walmart products by navigating through several make-believe worlds. "We believe this is the future of commerce," said Justin Breton, who leads brand experiences at Walmart. "It won't replace our website or app, but will complement them."
