    There are plenty of folks who aren't, and don't need to be concerned
    about grocery prices. It might make sense for them to never shop at
    ALDI. There are folks who don't drive a lot, or who don't live close to
    a Costco. It might make sense for them to not have a Costco membership.
    The gas way more than pays for our membership, and the only other things that I buy there frequently are the chickens and the 5-packs of romaine. It's great lettuce, and stays fine for the week it takes us to use it.
    We eat a lot of lettuce. I think I'll go make a salad.


    We don't have an ALDI on this rock. My son's girlfriend gave us some meat that her family brought from the mainland. It was packed for ALDI. Yay, I guess...
