About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unseasonably warm November morning when Aldi’s parking lot suddenly filled with misty fog. Customers started noticing that every time they entered through the sliding doors, something peculiar happened—an old man in a tweed coat would appear out of thin air and greet them with a hearty ‘Good day!’ before vanishing as quickly as he came. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed into the store shouting, 'I’ve got it! I’ve got it!' He waved his hands frantically, showing everyone a box labeled ‘Mystery Gift.’ As soon as someone opened it, out popped the old gentleman, who exclaimed, ‘Finally, someone recognized my true form!’ The whole place erupted in laughter, realizing it had been just another quirky Aldi employee prank.
2. A regular was pushing his cart down the aisle one day when he heard someone whisper, ‘Did you see that?’ He looked around but saw no one. Puzzled, he continued shopping until another voice said, ‘It’s right there!’ Glancing again, he noticed nothing unusual—until he glanced into the dairy section and saw a gallon of milk floating above the shelf. Confused, our regular followed the floating milk, which led him past frozen foods and into the bakery section. There, amidst the freshly baked bread, stood an old neighbor smiling warmly and holding a loaf aloft. ‘I thought I’d help myself to some air,’ she whispered with a twinkle in her eye.
3. A little boy followed his mom into ALDI one Saturday afternoon. As she pushed her cart past the cereal aisle, he stopped dead in his tracks, pointing excitedly at something on the shelf. She bent down and asked curiously, ‘What’s so special there, honey?’ He replied with a big smile, ‘Mom, they’re selling rainbows for only 99 cents!’ She looked up at the plain boxes of cereal and shook her head, laughing gently. The story became their family joke ever since.
4. A delivery driver was unloading crates of canned goods one night when he noticed something strange in the shadows between aisles. As he peered closer, a can of beans suddenly rolled towards him, followed by another and another—all seemingly on their own accord. Confused and amused, the driver shook his head and muttered, ‘Must be those new self-checkout aisles playing tricks.’ He finished his shift with a smile, wondering if anyone else had seen the dancing cans.
