Gotta disagree about Wal-Mart. They always have excellent prices, wide variety, cleanliness, and the entire store has every other selection a person can generally want. With the exception of meat prices and deli, and Krogers wins there in our area, Wal-Mart makes no sense on this list.
Krogers is my favorite regular grocery store, followed by Jungle Jims for it’s really off the wall and international selections, it’s amazing fresh produce section, and it’s off-the-charts beer and wine selections top every store I’ve ever seen.
Our local Wal-Mart is bright, clean, easy to access, with nice wide aisles and quick, friendly checkers. Prices are good, everything is always in stock, and I’ve never had a problem there. Excellent American company.
The local Aldis, although a fairly new place, is crammed full of rude shoppers, cheap off-brand crap products, and sullen checkout clerks. Plus you have to put a deposit on a cart. No thanks.
