About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, an ALDI delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock with a truck full of groceries. As he unloaded boxes, something peculiar happened: every time he turned around, there seemed to be an extra box on the pallet. No one else noticed it, but he was certain no one had added anything. Finally, after hours of puzzlement, he asked his neighbor for help. The next day, as they worked together, she laughed and pointed out that her little dog kept stealing empty boxes from the dumpster behind their store, bringing them back to the loading dock as ‘extra’ deliveries.
2. One morning, a regular noticed that every third bag of oranges in ALDI’s aisle seemed to be missing exactly two pieces. Who was taking them—and why? Curious, he followed the trail of empty orange bags and found an elderly neighbor secretly replenishing his own stash. Turns out, the old fellow had a weakness for fresh oranges but couldn’t afford them regularly. The store never suspected a thing, and customers continued laughing about it for years.
3. At closing time, the night manager locked up ALDI and headed for home. Suddenly, he heard soft footsteps behind him. Turning around, he saw nothing but empty parking lots. As he approached his car, he noticed a shadowy figure in the distance. ‘Hello?’ he called out. The figure turned out to be just an overexcited a delivery driver who’d missed his exit.’ I’ll never work late again,’ he muttered, climbing into his vehicle with a laugh.
4. At dawn, a neighborhood watch volunteer spotted something peculiar outside ALDI's entrance: a shopping cart filled with cans, arranged alphabetically by brand. Curious, he called another volunteer, who brought flashlights and a camera. Together they found more carts, each one meticulously organized by expiration dates—from soonest to latest. It turned out that a regular customer, known for his meticulousness, had been doing it every week as a sort of personal challenge. When asked why, he simply smiled and said, 'Why not?'
