As it is, the excitement is about a 4th rate grocery warehouse trying
to sell any old tat that happens to come in the next container from
Shanghai

Except that Aldi aren't a 4th rate grocer in most of Europe, they take a
significant percentage of the market.


In their home market of Germany they do, but in other countries they
are not major players.


I noticed since the food price hypes, Lidle, Netto and Aldi have been
very busy. A good line on Jaffa cakes too.


For people who buy food on price, I suppose that's understandable.
