We thought of signing up for Instacart to get our shopping at Aldi's during the weekdays when it wasn't packed.

Then we considered the morality of exploiting one of our fellow human beings for the reasons mentioned and took a pass.

We'll shop at Aldi's on a week night when the traffic isn't the lightest, but still not so heavy.

“Morality of exploiting”?

That person WANTS to work, is willing to do something honest to get paid a fair (albeit low) wage.
Your “took a pass” means they lost a customer, didn’t get paid, because you thought it demeaning for them to work that cheaply.
Which is more demeaning: working for low pay, or not working for any pay?

I may try Instacart just to make up for your inhumanity.

Hard to exploit someone who wants to work a shopping gig. The service exists for a reason.

If you are concerned about their compensation, you could always tip more.
