I got a message from my bank saying my debit card was compromised and to call them. The rep said there was a massive nationwide data breach at "a retailer that many of our cardholders use within the last 6 months" that he could not name for legal reasons, and that all cardholders who shopped there would be issued new cards automatically. I told the rep I've only used my debit card at ALDI in the last 6 months since they only accept Debit Cards with PIN, and he laughed.

So yeah - watch your bank accounts people.

I'm guessing Trader Joe's might have been affected also since it's the same company.

Hi there.
Not the same company. Aldi is Aldi Süd and Trader Joe's is Aldi Nord. That's like the Western and Eastern Roman Empires.

This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

They are the only grocery store I know of in this area (Illinois) where you still have to "rent' a cart by inserting a quarter into the locking dealio. Every time I walk in there someone is always outside begging me for a quarter to feed it.

yea idk. it was common in italy but you got the deposit back when you returned it. never seen it anywhere in the US but I've never been to an aldi. most places here in the california just have locking carts if you bring them outside of the perimeter, though it doesn't seem to stop homeless from taking them cause i still see ton of them pushing them around onto the trains and poo poo.

Aldi is basically the Ryanair of the supermarket business. Which I guess makes Trader Joe's the Southwest Airlines of the supermarket business.

Personally I pay a poor to follow me on all fours wearing a pack saddle while I shop, otherwise sometimes you get a shopping cart with a bad wheel which is really annoying.

Bullshit, youd never get that close to a poor.
