It's a refreshing experience for everyone to agree about anything on any forum because there area lot of people out there who argue for the sake of it, particularly when ensconced behind their computer keyboard.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Only been in each once since they installed them, they had both tills and the self serve tills open in both branches.  To be fair its a nightmare in Aldi usually if you only want one or two items so I am happy to see them put in there.

They have car parks for a reason, if you're buying a pint of milk, go to the local shop  10 items and under tills have been a thing for a long time, we will end up with nothing but FU tills if you let them continue Edited July 20, 2023 by fools 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
