Why do the media insist on calling Aldi a discount store?


because its MO is to sell exclusively no-name "discount" products.

Which is what in Germany is exactly what it does

but here, the UK obsession with "brands" means that they have to stock
some of them


Because it would slow things down, their tills operate at the speed of
light,


Ours has never done for some reason. Quite literally a year old now.

Presumably down to the 'trainer'

and with the queues they need to!
