You can't have a sense of humor, if you have no sense!

We have a local ALDI, started out only with food, but expanded into
general merchansdise (about 20% of the floor space is now non-food.
They have just gotten zoning for a new big store and I can't wait to
see what they carry. It is bare-bones shopping, but prices beat
everyone else and it has become quite popular in our supposedly
upscale Naperville suburban Chicago area. SHopped at some of their
stores in Germany also over the years and they are wisdespread over
there, their home location. ADSA is the Wal-Mart subsidiary, they
were bought out a few years ago.
