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.

I imagine they will run the stores in the same way that they do in the
UK. In addition to the basic foods lines they have specials that are
changed twice a week. If you want to know what their specials are going
to be you need to sign up for their email mailing list. Lidl are a very
similar operation and work the same way.

The specials often include various tools and household hardware. I've
found that they are generally good value but you need to buy when they
have stock and not when you need something.
