About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day in Aldi’s parking lot, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered to his mom, ‘Look, Mommy, it’s dancing bags!’ The plastic shopping bags were moving around on their own as if they had a life of their own. Curious, the mother approached slowly, but just as she reached them, the bags stopped abruptly and stood still like well-behaved children. Turning to her son with a smile, she said, ‘Oh honey, those are just windy bags having fun.’ And indeed, behind them, a nearby delivery driver was struggling to close his truck door against the breeze.
2. In an Aldi store one night, a delivery driver swore he heard someone whispering behind him in the aisles. When he turned around, no one was there. Curious, the driver slowly walked down each aisle but found only empty shelves and quiet beeping of barcode scanners. Later that evening, his neighbor popped over with some groceries and joked, ‘Did you forget to turn off the whispering aisles again?’
3. In an Aldi store late one night, a security guard heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Check your shopping list again—you might be missing something.’ Curious, he did as instructed and found an extra can of beans on his belt. The voice spoke again: ‘And don’t forget to scan that!’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a regular who liked to mess with staff.
4. In an Aldi store early morning, a cashier noticed a small dog frantically sniffing around the shelves. It kept stopping at one aisle, its tail wagging curiously. Curious, she followed the little guy and found a package of treats hidden behind canned goods. Turns out, it was a cleverly disguised delivery driver’s prank on his co-workers. The dog was just helping him retrieve his ‘stolen’ snacks! Everyone had a good laugh that day.
