Aldi and Lidl have been making gains around here as a result, where as years ago...people were kicking off about one being opened so close to the neighborhood.
My favourite are the two local Asian Grocery Stores.
They are a full on sensory explosion.
Amazing Sights and Smells, often fruit and vegetables you've never seen or heard of before.
The produce seems to be of a higher standard than the big stores.
The spices and oils are amazing.
You see an incredible diverse mix of people shopping there.
It seems really exotic for a Suburban American Strip Mall and it is waaaaay cheaper than the dreaded big guns.
