3299 Carpenter Rd, Ypsilanti“Had a hard time deciding what to eat for breakfast. It was close to me so thought I would try this local place that always seems to be busy. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich, but added bacon, well done and scrambled eggs and could not have been more satisfied.”
“Amazingly open on Sundays! I stopped in here as I wanted to make a meal to honor Cameroon. I was on a learning mission. It is a small but mighty store packed with tasty treasures. It was fun to hear and feel the energy of shoppers who were already familiar with the offerings of the store as I perused the options. The man who operates the store was friendly and very willing to help me in my quest.”

“Gotta love Aldi!
Pro tips:
1) DON'T FORGET TO BRING YOUR OWN BAGS. Sometimes there's a pile of free empty boxes, but you can't count on it.
2) If you have the time, do your research. Aldi prices for some items are not always lower than Meijer/Kroger.
3) Sometimes the name brand and Aldi/generic are very different. It takes trial and error to figure out which generic items you actually like. There are some things (like coffee creamer) that I always buy brand name. They taste very different to me.
4) Try to go in person instead of using instacart if you can. You can't count on the things you order (or your backups) to be in stock. You might also find something new or better that isn't listed.
5) The self-checkout camera is not flattering, but still a great place to check your hair/makeup. ?”
