10/10 thru 10/16

Can't find this online, but the insert in our local paper showed that they had 512MB iPod Shuffles for $59.99 at Aldi this week only. Here's the Aldi website, but good luck finding any confirmation... http://aldi.us

YMMV... check your local Aldi if you've got one, and if you're certain that nobody who knows you will see you walk in. (FYI, I love Aldi's prices.... it's just the "food stamp" mentality that puts some people off...)

Also, I believe, they don't take credit cards ... only debit (maybe?).

kenbuzz

Correct. They take debit cards and cash.

Aldi's owns Trader Joe's

Shhhhhhhh don't tell anyone...

Dang, closest one is over 100 miles from where I live.

Oh?



We have been buying most of our food from Aldi, Trader Joe's and Costco. Rarely go to the grocery store we once frequented.

Sam See

It's true.

Buford T Pusser

Interesting. Which is your favorite Aldi Sam? Tiedemann?

I decided not to rush over and grab one since it only does shuffle. I tend to hear whole albums in order and not just put singles on for a listen.

interesting the trader joe's link, aldi and lido are all over ireland, with cheap foods and are taking the mainstream grocery stores for a walk in the park

Aldi? Is that the same store where you can buy 10 beat up cans of chili for $1?

Buford T Pusser

Aldi gets a cheap wrap but they have some good stuff.

My parents used to haul me into Aldi's to buy chicken, which I always joked was from Chernobyl Farms (Married with Children reference, I think).

Never been in my local one but I'll have to check it out, thanks

Aldi's is HUGE in europe, but in the US it caters to "urban" neiborhoods but for what it sell's it does very very well.

They are opening in the nicer suburbs around here. At first people were surprised that the store was opening in our town.

i hate these stores...tried shopping there, and they had next to nothing. I guess paying for shopping carts, paper sacks, and the like just rubbed me wrong...wouldn't mind if they had a great selection, but it was butter cookies and shasta for the most part.

There are a bunch of these stores here in central Indiana and everyone that I stopped by to check all said they sold out within 2 hours of the store opening. Tried to see if Wal-Mart or Best Buy would price match the Aldi price, but it was a no go. Thought it was worth a try! Was going to pickup a couple of these suckers for a Christmas gift for my daughter and one for me to wear around work. Would rather have the new iPods for home/car and the Shuffle for work/exercising.
