For future reference, if you don't have a quarter for your cart, most employees will loan one, Also, it is often the case that a customer will just give their cart to someone when they are done.
I think you can ask for a quarter at the cashier. Then just return it. Also, lots of other shoppers notice people who don't have one and offer one for free. I do that all the time, or give my returned cart to them with the quarter still inside. It's a nice store.
Fun Aldi fact, when they first opened, the employees that rang up the order not only had to key in each item, they had to memorize the price of all items in the store. Thank goodness for them that was improved on.
I love Aldi, you can find the strangest things. If you go back around Christmas they have a lot of chocolate and peppermint treats plus cute decorations.
ALDIS is a German-based company 90% of their goods are imported from Germany. The most wonderful time to shop at Aldi‘s is in September and beginning of October they bring in all the fabulous German foods for Oktoberfest and the prices are so wonderful and if you hit it at a good time, they do have specials on their wines, meats, cheeses, and just all around kitchen stuff and household goods. Glad you got to experience a trip to ALDIS
can not be true. we do not have most everything i saw in this video. as i know most of their stuff is produced for them in usa. of course some items are really from germany. the other way around would be way to exspensive.
First shopped at Aldi when I lived in Germany in the 1980s, as soon as they arrived in UK I started shopping there and now they are so popular and in nearly every town. They change their specials on Sunday and Thursday. These are seasonal and include Chilcare, Christmas, Halloween, Gardening, Crafts and many others. We always shop on Thursday morning at 8am normally the car park is empty but this time it was nearly full. The reason was they were having a wooden toy event and with Aldi events once things are sold out that is it. Mums were definitely shopping for Christmas the toys are good quality and price. It was interesting seeing how different the stock is. Hope all is going well with the pregnancy. 🎉
Glad you got to experience Aldi felt bad you didn't have a quarter ,for shopping cart, Everetts tooth and note was so sweet also loved his shirt inside out and backwards with tag hanging out lol lol 😆
I don’t go to Aldi as often as I’d like but they are amazing! If you are one who cares about food dyes and such, aldis is a great place to go. Most of their stuff if not all of it has no food dyes in it. So that’s a major plus for a lot of parents who try to stay away from the dyes.
About 95% of Aldi is their store brand products with names that vary by food category. That’s one of the ways they save money. Another is the carts. Making you put it back to get your quarter back means they don’t have to employ cart wranglers. Not taking things out of boxes is another way they save money. (You could have picked up any empty box you saw to carry your loot around. That is encouraged.) another way they save money is they don’t play any music in their stores. Those ad-free music stations grocery stores use cost money! I like shopping there because their prices are great and to me the smaller stores with less variety of items is less overwhelming. I get a lot of basics mainly: fruits and veggies enough for the week, bread, snacks, milk, yogurt (theirs is definitely the cheapest) eggs, and pasta and sauce. I also will buy fun things too. Their cheese section is great and ever-changing with specialty cheeses from all over the world. Their chocolates are also fantastic and most are made in Europe. They have a sea salt dark chocolate where you get five snack-sized bars in a box and it feels super luxurious for just $1.99. I also really like their home finds section for all kinds of stuff. We got a 4 person tent over the summer. It’s not super fancy, but it’s pretty nice and I think it was $49.99. My favorite casserole dish I have came from Aldi and is a knock-off of the Le Creuset ceramic lidded ones. I think it was $19.99. They go all out with German stuff at Christmas too. It’s very fun. And at Thanksgiving they have the absolute best prices on turkeys.
Many stores do not play music. Not because of cost savings but for the fact that they do not like music playing in the store that may be off putting to customers.
Ciao, I am from Austria, living in Italy 🤗and I crow up with "Hofer", it's "Aldi"!!! The products are very good and cheaper 👍!!! I am sorry for my English😅 🙈, but I have started following you weeks ago and I am always waiting for a new video 😀!!! Cari saluti from Trieste, ganz liebe Grüße von einer Österreicherin 👋💞💕, best wishes Andrea
What a FUN event😊‼️ You’re a GREAT SPORT MARK👍😊That mashed potato bar was a great idea- I have only done that with baked potatoes. The nail salon was incredible with the food‼️Glad you were able to enjoy the day too Lauren. Thanks for taking us along❤️😊👍‼️
We live Aldi! I was excited thinking you had an Aldi in AK. Maybe some day. You can always ask the cashier for a quarter. Sometimes they'll lend you one, or they'll give you change. Lots of their stuff is made my name brand mfg but it is all made to Aldi standards. They have a Twice as Nice Guarantee too. Their chocolates are so good. That goodie aisle is affectionately referred to as The Aisle of Shame or AOS. There a are Facebook groups devoted to Aldi fans. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip. Your boys are so good. Everett! He's a hoot and warms my heart.
I Love Aldi!!!! They seem to be the same size store everywhere. Most things are German made products or from Europe. Thanks for sharing Lauren. Safe travels ❤✌🙏
We have three Aldi stores within a 10min drive from home. They have speciality sales for things like camping gear, gardening and back to school. My boys school back packs are from Aldi have so far lasted four years and are just now starting to show some wear and tear. Enjoy your trip and soak up some sun while you can 🌞🇦🇺
You are so right about the people wanting to help. It's just so hard to even make a decision at that time of sorrow...we still pray for you all my still breaks for you 💔 Love and light,Patti
Everette melts my heart, I love his backwards inside out shirt. 😍He is going to be such a good big brother, all your boys are going to be so protective, those girls have no chance at all of ever getting boyfriends. lol
Hi Lauren It’s great that you got to experience Aldi it does have a majority of home brands. . The fresh produce is always good value. I also love their special buys section which is generally in the centre of the store. Which can include clothing, gardening, hobbies. Gift ware for children is always at a good price.
Everett is adorable! My kids (18 & 26) just found a bin with some of their childhood things inside and had fun looking back at some of their old schoolwork and notes to Santa etc. They laughed at how they spelled certain words but I always thought it was adorable!
We have Aldi's here in Connecticut I love it they always have such fun stuff to find. Everetts little note to the tooth fairy at the end was so cute! 😄
I'm glad you got you see what Aldi is all about. I noticed different products in that Aldi location as opposed to my local Aldi. I do appreciate the seasonal items they carry-especially at Christmas time. I have extra quarters in my car for the cart😏 Everett is such a charmer!! What a sweet note he wrote to the tooth fairy☺
Good Morning Hamm Family ❤️ Hello Texas. Shout out to my wonderful Nephew, his beautiful Wife, and my Great-Nephew and -Niece. What a beautiful day. I've been to our Aldi a few times... Lidl too. Aldi has awesome bakery items. Now I feel the urge to drop by and see what's new 🤔 Take care and Yah's Blessings 🤗 Almost caught up 🙂
Hello Lauren! Im so glad that you tried Aldi for 1st time! When i used to live in Fl i always shop there for groceries , home goods specially for the kitchen and patio stuff. I love their prices, cheese, meats, seasonal things. They are not a fancy store in that way they can keep the prices lower. Now in Michigan i shopped like 1/2 of the groceries. I just saw clothes for the girls in the hotel closet how cute. I love from aldi thr dried fruits. Take care and enjoy the warm weather with the family in Texas.
Everett is so cute. Loved his letter to the tooth fairy. We had Aldi’s back east in Maryland and West Virginia. I really liked them. Glad you were able to rest and relax! Hope you have a blessed week!
I read up on the history of Aldi's and its origins. Really interesting. Started by brothers who later split the company with one remaining in Germany/Europe and the other brother spread to outside Europe. From what I remember the company is split yet still under an umbrella company. In order to sell your items at Aldi's and its sister stores the product had to meet certain guidelines. I think Trader Joe's is a sister company too. What you saw is the general set up for every Aldi I have ever been to. Having a quarter, reusable bags and a willingness to experience unknown brands makes it a great place to shop and save money.
Aldi and Trader Joe’s are brothers from Germany. I buy gluten free items from them both. I am very happy we got an Aldi’s. Oh, I go to Sam’s and Costco, too. Plus several local stores. No one has all the gluten free items. Enjoy.
Aldi is one of the grocery stores I go to for specific things (we live north of Houston) ... their "lite" bread is very good and much less expensive than other brands at other grocery stores. I buy a fair amount of produce there and most of the cheeses that we enjoy. Their cauliflower crust pizzas are delicious, eggs and butter are generally less expensive ... and their frozen food selection is good. We went to an Aldi in Italy, I think, that had a fresh bakery where I got some delicious sweet rolls. Aldi is a favorite place!
It's been a hot couple months for us down in Southern California, but hopefully it will be cooling down soon! I remember being pregnant during the hot summer months were miserable, so happy you only did a week in the heat! We don't have an Aldi down here in the OC either, but my favorite food channel gal shops there quite often, she loves it!! I got the biggest smile when Everett came walking out with his shirt inside out & backwards, & showing us his front tooth. I'm so glad you left him that way, didn't fuss with it to fix him. Typical sweet little boy, I absolutely loved it!!! Great video, Lauren! Continued prayers!! 🩷🩷
How fun that you have a little trip to go on and fun how you get to meet other i fluencers from UA-cam. Hope you had fun !! Everett is getting so big !! ❤
In Europe, we need a coin (usually 1 or 2 euro/pounds/franks) for every supermarket cart, so we usually keep a few in the car. You often get coin-like tokens from places like car sales rooms, banks etc, that you can keep on your key ring, instead of using actual money.
Aldi also do great dupes for skincare and candles, copying high end brands. Their Christmas stock of decorations and gifts is really fantastic, although I realise that this is not an option for you, Lauren. Hope you enjoyed your conference and managed to get some rest when there xx
Love Aldi. Prices are reasonable. Good selection! At Christmas my family loves all the German chocolates 🍫 Most the stores similar as yours . Just remember bring your own bags & shopping carts 25 cents.
Lauren, for future reference at ALDI if you don't have a quarter just ask a cashier and they will either give you one or they have extra carts up front.
We have several Aldi stores in our area that i shop at weekly. So much cheaper then Giants and other grocery stores. Our Aldis are a little bigger then the one you showed. Not fancy but clean and cheap.
The warm weather of Texas looks good on you! Here in NC, we have both Aldi and Lidl, which are very similar. In my town we only have Lidl, but I love the store and shop there every week. Their produce is the best of any store in town and they have many other great products. Their prices are very good too. Check them out next time you are in the lower 48.
Aldi’s and Lidl are both budget stores. FYI they have pull along baskets just inside the door if you don’t have change for a cart. If I don’t have change I usually just smile sweetly and ask if they would unlock one for me. I shop for my meat at either one of these German stores. They are extremely popular stores in the UK. Glad you got to experience the budget store. Bargain always to be found. Most of there food if you noticed have the same colouring as the original brands with a very similar name and font style a clear rip off 😂.
Ok how you work aldis is how you work Sam's or Costco...grab a box unload it. It's fine it will be just find poured out stack the stuff on another box. I find the nut area boxes the best with a lid if u need it. Ok then pile your needed items in. And walk, or you can go to the counter first grab 2 fancy reinforced bags fill them up as you shop and pay for the bags easy
We have Aldis where we live in Ohio. My daughter loves it. That's about the average size of them. A lot of times someone will just give you their cart when they are returning it and you don't need a quarter. Everyone loves Aldis.
Lauren, you continue to amaze me with the quality and variety of vlogs your able to put out. I'm inspired by your honesty and authenticity. Cute little Everett and his inside out backwards shirt. I love how you just let him be in the moment and be himself. I think that's what attracts me most about your channel is "it is what it is". I love that. Keep taking care of yourself and growing those babies. Thank you for all your hard work in spite of a difficult pregnancy. We just adore you.
@Lauren :: your sons are so well behaved - you asked Everett to go chew swallow and come back :) and he did -- so cute! but his excitement with mouth full with choking drool was also very adorable 😁
Loved the Aldi shop. REALLY loved the Texan sized mini bar - hahaha everything is bigger in Texas my dad always said. Seemed like a really nice hotel too. ❤ hugs n love from Clgary, AB, Canada
I love Aldi. I grew up in the Fairbanks area but I’ve been living in the lower 48 for the last 10 years. I still am impressed by the variety of products and the low prices in the lower 48 vs Alaska😂!
For future reference, if you don't have a quarter for your cart, most employees will loan one, Also, it is often the case that a customer will just give their cart to someone when they are done.

They would have given you a cart if you asked for one inside. Welcome to Texas and Aldi
Fun Aldi fact, when they first opened, the employees that rang up the order not only had to key in each item, they had to memorize the price of all items in the store. Thank goodness for them that was improved on.
Employees still have to manually key in the code for all fruit and vegetables and the heavy items like soft drinks and water 👍
Thats just like in europe lol@@brilliantbutblue
If you don't have a quarter, use a house key. Take it off your key chain and use the rounded end.
I love Aldi, you can find the strangest things. If you go back around Christmas they have a lot of chocolate and peppermint treats plus cute decorations.
Everett with his missing tooth & the note to the tooth fairy & his inside out backwards shirt is just the cutest 🥰
Good night Lauren and Mark and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful day 🌞
We love Aldi shop there all the time 😊
Haha love that his shirt is inside out and backwards. Miss my grown boys being so young. Everett is adorable
I agree, it makes me giggle because he never even notices!

That note to the tooth fairy is adorable! Bring that out when Everett gets married. 😁❤️
Leaving a note for the tooth fairy....priceless. Your hotel room was nice. Even the fridge matched. I've never been to an Aldi.
You're looking healthy and I'm glad you had a nice little trip for yourself before the girls arrive and the hotel looked so relaxing 🌅💜
You are so right about the people wanting to help. It's just so

I also love their special buys section which is generally in the centre of the store. Which can include clothing, gardening, hobbies. Gift ware for children is always at a good price.
The motel is so cute. Love to see people remodel, instead of tearing down.
Everett is adorable! My kids (18 & 26) just found a bin with some of their childhood things inside and had fun looking back at some of their old schoolwork and notes to Santa etc. They laughed at how they spelled certain words but I always thought it was adorable!
You can get change at the courtesy desk to work the cart line.
I love little kid notes. It’s so fun to see how they spell things. You need to put that in Everett’s baby book to keep forever. So sweet. 😊
We have Aldi's here in Connecticut I love it they always have such fun stuff to find. Everetts little note to the tooth fairy at the end was so cute! 😄

The staff will give you a token for the trolley/cart if you don't have one which is very helpful.

We loved this place when we lived in ohio... I wish we had one out here! And they have gotten so much better
Those coconut almonds are SO good!
Love Aldi's! Blessed to have one right down my street.
I will have to grab those in the future!
Absolutely love Everett little shirt on wrong side out and backwards he is adorable
That is a common occurrence for him., if we are not going anywhere I just let it be!
Everett is so cute. Loved his letter to the tooth fairy. We had Aldi’s back east in Maryland and West Virginia. I really liked them. Glad you were able to rest and relax! Hope you have a blessed week!
I agree with Everett, the dark chocolate caramels are the best! Addictive!
They were soooo good! Everyone’s favorite I think.
I read up on the history of Aldi's and its origins. Really interesting.

Spekulatius and coffee is sooooo good it gets me through winter!!!

Aldi and Trader Joe’s are brothers from Germany. I buy gluten free items from them both. I am very happy we got an Aldi’s. Oh, I go to Sam’s and Costco, too. Plus several local stores. No one has all the gluten free items. Enjoy.
Aldi is very popular in Minnesota. We have actually 2 stores in my small town. Glad you escaped for some warm weather.

The 1st time I went to Aldi was near ham lake and it was a very nice store.
The isle you called home good section we call it the isle of shame! 😂

So Yummy!
Glad you enjoyed your 1st trip to Aldi!
🤣 love fact Everett running around sporting his shirt inside out lol
It is a regular occurrence with that one! He hates to change it…. I ask him to if we are leaving the house but let him be if we are staying home. Lol
How fun that you have a little trip to go on and fun how you get to meet other i fluencers from UA-cam. Hope you had fun !! Everett is getting so big !! ❤

Aldi also do great dupes for skincare and candles, copying high end brands. Their Christmas stock of decorations and gifts is really fantastic, although I realise that this is not an option for you, Lauren. Hope you enjoyed your conference and managed to get some rest when there xx
I got so much rest! Not having to cook or clean leaves a lot do time for relaxing!
Hello from Germany, home of Aldi…Aldi sure is expensive in the USA compared to Germany and we have other Brands over here
Sometimes the head of a key will fit in as a substitute for a quarter for a shopping cart
Love Aldi. Prices are reasonable. Good selection! At Christmas my family loves all the German chocolates 🍫 Most the stores similar as yours . Just remember bring your own bags & shopping carts 25 cents.
I live in Alabama.
Happy you had a fun time in Texas….your looking really well Lauren….in fact you are glowing 👍♥️
I love the inside out shirt!!! Made me smile.
Love Aldi. The one thing we really miss after leaving California for Utah. 😢
Love the big fridge in your room!
I did. too, only problem is they had so many things for “purchase” in there, it left barely any room for my leftovers. 😂 Super cute though!
That is the cutest hotel! That was a well stocked fridge.
Lauren, for future reference at ALDI if you don't have a quarter just ask a cashier and they will either give you one or they have extra carts up front.
I love love love Aldi. That’s where I do my weekly shopping. Great good tasting finds.
Love the decor in the hotel

Ok how you work aldis is how you work Sam's or Costco...grab a box unload it. It's fine it will be just find poured out stack the stuff on another box. I find the nut area boxes the best with a lid if u need it. Ok then pile your needed items in. And walk, or you can go to the counter first grab 2 fancy reinforced bags fill them up as you shop and pay for the bags easy
Oh fluffanutter brings back all my childhood memories, a sandwich with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff was a standard lunch during the summer
We have Aldis where we live in Ohio. My daughter loves it. That's about the average size of them. A lot of times someone will just give you their cart when they are returning it and you don't need a quarter. Everyone loves Aldis.
Aldi has German week a few times a yr. That's what most of the Deutche cookies, noodle mixes are from.
Lauren, you continue to amaze me with the quality and variety of vlogs your able to put out. I'm inspired by your honesty and authenticity. Cute little Everett and his inside out backwards shirt. I love how you just let him be in the moment and be himself. I think that's what attracts me most about your channel is "it is what it is". I love that. Keep taking care of yourself and growing those babies. Thank you for all your hard work in spite of a difficult pregnancy. We just adore you.
loved his fashion statement! tag hanging out! he is so adorable 😊
That is a common sight with Everett. If we're not going anywhere, I just let it be!
@@ThisAlaskaLife I don’t blame you. He is so cute! And has his own sense of style…🤗
I don't have an Aldis close but have wanted to go to one. Glad you got to visit one. Have fun in TX. We are breaking temperature records
The chocolate truffles are wonderful!
@Lauren :: your sons are so well behaved - you asked Everett to go chew swallow and come back :) and he did -- so cute! but his excitement with mouth full with choking drool was also very adorable 😁
Loved the Aldi shop. REALLY loved the Texan sized mini bar - hahaha everything is bigger in Texas my dad always said. Seemed like a really nice hotel too. ❤ hugs n love from Clgary, AB, Canada
I love Aldi. I grew up in the Fairbanks area but I’ve been living in the lower 48 for the last 10 years. I still am impressed by the variety of products and the low prices in the lower 48 vs Alaska😂!
Love watching you and the family, always bring smiles to my face.
That is the regular size for Aldi. Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Looking well Lauren stay safe keep well🎉❤
Thank you! Will do!
