It reminded me of America in the 70s, small, older looking products, and very few choices. Loved that you had to bring your own bags. When I returned to the states, I bought my own, and I try to remember to use them all the time.

It would probably be so much easier to get to places. I mean public transportation is huge here, but taking 4 hours to get somewhere instead of 2, takes a big chunk of time out of your day. <br /><br />I loved reading your answers!

I did not know Aldi's carried German food, although I did know they were a German store. duh!! :/ I will definitely have to go next time I see one. I think America, in the name of "progress" have actually gone backwards in a lot of ways. I think it's great that you have to bring your own bag, although my son failed to tell us that until too late. lol And paying for the carts is smart. I know where we went, if you put it back, you got your 50 cents back. I know I didn't have to dodge them in the parking lots that's for sure. I went to Monterey, California last summer and they started charging 10 cents for each bag. The store owners were mostly apologetic for it since it is a new thing, but I say "whatever it takes". :) Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749734347647016111noreply@blogger.com
