I was tokenless, trolley ignorant but under pressure to go to Aldi due to the arrival of our new baby & loss of my income in the process. Once I had overcome my initial wariness & gotten over the unfamilair packaging I realised Aldi was my household's saviour. Shopping takes half the time as I'm not mulling over 2 for one deals or trying to figure out which brand is best or which size is more economical. From an hour & a half at Safeway, I'm in and out of Aldi in 35-40mins. I know what I want, have a quick browse at the freezer items & biscuits & back on the road with toddler, baby & a bootful of shopping that's taken about 40% off my month end grocery bill. We also have a teenager whose demands range from sultanas to nuts, wraps & tuna so I my demographic demands sometimes take their toll on our budget! Cleaning & laundry items are a steal there too if you don't mind cheap washing powder & a choice of 3 fragrances in fabric softeners. That's where our biggest savings has come from so thank you Aldi for opening up in Drysdale as the Surcoast needed it!
