Everything was so fucking expensive. They also put in those refrigerators where it has the ads and they're just as fucking awful and weird as the pictures would have you believe. Also, the big cctv showing you as you go down the aisle and check out are fucked. At self check out you can no longer mute it so it has to talk to you. Finally, they hired security to stand at the entrance of the store which is gross. edit: Some stuff was also locked in a cabinet

The devil is in that store. I'm so fucking pissed.

Pretty much why I only go go to either trader Joe's or bargain grocery places. The bargain places are so cheap if you're flexible and trader Joe's is just straightforward. I've also heard Aldi is pretty good

Aldi US kinda sucks tbh. The produce is always nasty in my town, the meats all come in frozen and never thaw out properly, and while canned goods are cheaper, it's usually because they are smaller sizes than comparable stuff from other grocery stores. They have a few little treats that i like, but it never feels worth it when i go there. I'm just fortunate that we have about 5 different grocery stores in my little town, as well as a bunch of farm markets and weekly farmers markets around the area in the summer.
