About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular pushed his shopping cart through ALDI’s aisles, he stopped mid-step when he heard an eerie humming sound coming from one of the freezers. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but rows of frozen vegetables. Yet every time he turned away, the hum grew louder again. Finally, he called over a nearby delivery driver for help. Together they opened the freezer door wider—and out popped a sleepy penguin, who promptly waddled off with its stolen ice home. The regular shrugged, paid for his groceries, and never mentioned it again.
2. One day, while loading groceries into his car, a regular noticed something odd on ALDI’s checkout receipt: ‘Today is your lucky day! Free cookie with every purchase.’ He smiled, thinking it must be a mistake, but soon others started reporting similar messages. Soon, people flocked to ALDI just for cookies, ignoring their shopping lists entirely. One delivery driver even parked his truck next to the store and ordered groceries solely for more free cookies! Eventually, ALDI quietly changed the message to read: 'Thank you for shopping with us!' And everyone went home happy—except maybe the driver who missed his lunch break.
3. In the dead of night, a delivery driver pulled up to ALDI’s back door. As he unloaded boxes, he swore he heard laughter coming from inside the empty store. Curious, he peeked inside and saw a shadowy figure pushing a shopping cart filled with random items. ‘What are you doing here?’ asked the driver. The ghostly figure turned around and replied, ‘Just stocking up for the week!’ They both shared a laugh, and the driver realized it was just an overactive imagination. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned ALDI at midnight, everyone smiled and nodded knowingly.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to ALDI’s back door. As he unloaded boxes, he heard an eerie humming coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw rows upon rows of smiling cans dancing in time with the hum. Turns out, it was just the refrigeration unit playing its own little nighttime concert. The delivery driver laughed it off, finished his shift, and went home to tell his neighbor about the singing groceries—who promptly invited him over for some free canned goods.
