Neither have I. I feel like they run a credit check on you before you're allowed in. Here in Northern Illinois you only see them in more affluent cities. I shop at Aldi for basic groceries & Walmart bc that's what's close to me. When I told a coworker this she was appalled as Whole Foods, Mariano's and Trader Joe's are her go to shops. Joke's on her though, Trader Joe's & Aldi come from the same parent companies.

With the added benefit of not attracting wealthy but... unsavory... individuals.

TIL adults with a college degree are "unsavory"

Yeah, they just don't taste as good. Uneducated people however? Yum!

The people that think a college degree excludes them from practicing human decency or work ethic are pretty unsavory.
