    This Surprising Habit, Not Price, Keeps Aussie Shoppers Loyal to Big Supermarkets – Are You One of Them?

    Class lawsuit claims supermarkets misled customers on discounts, shoppers act

    Absolute garbage the whole lot. Only one to benefit are lawyers. Both stores are huge employers and at the end of the day their net return is roughly 3% on investment. Aldi is overhyped and I wonder if any underhand deals are done with them and those that laud their "cheapness" in...
