We have Aldi in the US too. From the company logo it's the same company. Great prices great products. Do they have all the shopping carts chained together like they do here? You put a quarter (insert appropriate pence amount here) in to release the cart then you get the money back when you put the cart back. It saves them from hiring people to retrieve them from the parking lot.
Yea that's been common over here for ages now, because people (kids) just kept stealing the shopping cart.
More recently some supermarkets have started to reverse the trend, the carts now have immobilising wheels to stop them being taken.

I managed to find an Aldi store all the way over in Sydney.
They have been here for close on 10 years now and are pretty much everywhere.
Certainly giving the duopoly of Coles and Woolworths a shake up.
Woolworths? They went bust quite a few years ago in the UK!

Really? I'm surprised and disappointed to read that.
Woolies here in Aust seems to be a different stand alone company, I don't think they have any overseas ties, though I'm sure it started up as on off shoot of the UK Wollies.

The Australian version is a different company, but they robbed the original name!
The South African's did the same thing.
The Woolies we know was originally an American company, it spun off it's English division into a separate company in the 1980's.
There are also similar German, Mexican and Cypriot versions.
