Have you ever shop at LIDI?

Anonymous
I went to Lidi today, and I just can't believe how cheap this place is, its looks like lower end store, unlike Wegmans, but its so cheap, I am not sure if I will go there again, but if you're want to save money you should go.

Why won't you go again if it's so cheap?

It's cheap and many of the lesser known products are also cheap and low quality. For example, the gluten free pasta is the worst I have ever tried; I decided to throw it away rather than donate it.

Some of the name brand products and produce are ok.

This is such a weird promotion for the store. You don’t even know the name of the store, but want to tell everyone how cheap it is but also that you won’t be going there again.

Same as any other store with house brands. You may like some but not others; try and decide for yourself. It's certainly quirky.

It's cheap so you won't go there again? Is there something wrong with you?

No. When I shop at a store like that, I go to Aldi's.

This isn't newsworthy.

Aldi and Lidl are known for low prices bc they're able to cut costs in other areas (employees rotate, no customer service desk, no real shelving/just boxes, bags cost money, bag your own, 90% house brands, etc).

The downside is there's no deli, fresh bakery, limited selection, and sometimes items are out of stock. (at least the one in Burke).

pros/cons.

Lidl has a bakery.

Their produce (and Aldi’s) are great.

It’s okay for some items. I can’t get everything that I need there.

Aldi's is the stepsister of Trader Joe's? And Lidle is the Aldi's of Germany? Is that right?

+1 that’s my feeling about Aldi. Love it for staples (milk, cheese, flour, oil, pasta, etc.) but definitely not a get everything on the list in one go store. The savings on the things I can buy there makes it worth it for me though.

Both Lidl and Aldi are German.
