@mommyofhandk The Aldi knockoff Cheese-Its are better than the real thing, and cost ~$1 per box. The chocolate >brioche is great too. I might try them for delivery.

There’s a “conspiracy theory” that a lot of the “knockoffs” are made by the knockoffees and re-branded.
Evidenced by having the exact same word for word Ingredients Statement.
Something that I consider absolute GENIUS is that most of their packaging has multiple bar codes.
The checkout clerks hardly ever have to search for a bar code.
In my area, the delivery is normally $9.99 for under $35, $5.99 for over but using the checkout code
SHOPALDI20 will make your 1st 3 over $35 = no delivery charge. I figure saved time, saved
transportation costs and the convenience of at my door delivery will be well worth the $5.99.

@fmb1
I have shopped only at Aldi pretty much exclusively the past couple of weeks. Next door at super Walmart there is a mayhem going on at all times while I get everything for cheaper and 99% in stock at Aldi without any hassle. Too far for delivery for me thou.
Had a nice experience at newly opened Lidl, too but it’s too far from me to go do regular grocery shopping.

I wonder if you have noticed something I find strange? Such as the milk I got today, would
have cost $2.87gal, but instead I got the exact same type/brand for $0.99 1/2gal. Same for
the Southern Grove Mixed Nuts at$13.99 30oz or the exact same except for packaging at
$4.99 14.75oz, so that extra 1/2oz cost $4. Other same brand, diff size items are the same.
Only thing I can figure is Aldi is European and on the metric system and US is not. smh

I must report on my Aldi Delivery experience:
WINNER, WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER!
29 items for $41.11 which was over $5 less than
it showed on line, so I gave the deliveryman the
$5 beyond the tip I had included with my order.
Got exactly everything I had ordered including
bread & milk, neither of which were available
last time I was at the store 3wks ago. If you have
an Aldi in your area, I highly recommend them
even after the current crisis.

Probably safer than NY or FL.

Maybe, maybe not. There are pictures of what looks
like thousands of burial urns waiting on occupants.
On the other hand, things with batteries might be
more likely to be shipped by boat, which means
more time for the virus to die off and I’m thinking
that shipments from anywhere in China are probably
quarantined for at least a couple of weeks.

they arrested him. Maybe if they throw him in jail he’ll keep it from spreading throughout the prison system.

I like the Belarus-ian cure… vodka & saunas.

Actually, I saw a list of liquor that could be used to
sanitize surfaces or as hand sanitizer. As you likely
know, the proof is double the strength of the alcohol.
So Everclear, which I believe is 190 proof the alcohol
would be 95% strength, and recommended strength
is 60%to70%. So chuggin EC might kill the virus,
but more likely kill you. Oorrrr make you feel/wish
you were dead.

I picked up some hand sanitizer (80% ethanol) from Vermont Distillers on the top of Hogback Mountain in Vermont. >I don’t drink but I like the smell of the ethanol.

I don’t drink either, but I might restart. Gotta new
phone today from Boost Mobile. FedEx delivered
to my door and ran>literally. Being very careful,
I sprayed the whole outside box with alcohol and
let it sit 'til dry, opened box and ditto the retail
box, also hands sanitized. So anyway, I’ve read
manual, installed battery, plugged in charger
and just kinda played with new toy>>>UNTIL
MY EYES NEARLY BUGGED OUTTA MY HEAD
MADE IN WUHAN, CHINA
Sheeeee----eeeeeeet!

2010 when I retired, got a Ron Raygun phone from
Assurance Wireless/Virgin Mobile. Been thru
several phones since. So it seems VM is OOB
in the US and switched me to Boost. I was
ready for a new phone anyway and the prices
were good. Out of the couple of dozen, there
was only one that still had a removable
battery >MOTOROLA e6. Anyway, thought
I’d never get the dang thing open.
I haven’t activated it yet and wonder if any
have experience with this model and/or
any gotchas to worry about?
OH YEAH! Nearly forgot, it was made
in WUHAN, CHINA! smfh

Trying Aldi delivery today. First 3 orders of $35+,
free delivery with code SHOPALDI20. Needed to
replenish a couple of things. The main thing
is it’s already paid for, no lines, so no human
contact. They’ll ring doorbell, leave it at my door,
