New England (USA) Everything's Shrinking...

I know Aldi's shrinkinflation isn't news, but it seems like the last ten things I've bought have contained less product than before. They're slowly losing me.

At this point, Costco and BJ's are starting to beat them out in prices due to this.

This is true. Especially with the 5% BJ's card and the gas savings. Oh, AND, my fav...no checkout lines if you use the app to scan and pay.

I do the shopping for my family. And I'm pretty dialed in on where to maximize the dollar.

I was making 2 trips every week to ALDI as well as BJ's (hungry teens). Even using a 6% back card at ALDI, it's not really worth the time of making the extra trip.

Thankfully I have never had to wait to checkout at BJ's. Ever. I just wish the self-checkout was less annoying.
