American Aldi carts, from pictures I've seen, still look more German than American. Especially the Quarter slot thingy to release the chain latch.

They nearly all have slot thingies to release the chain catch. In Europe they take 1€, the UK takes £1
It's supposed to ensure you take the trolley back to the trolley park.
But... most shops that have them will issue a piece of plastic that fits the slot to customers.
It always strikes me as a bit odd.

Uh, yeah, no. The Mexican grocery store is best for ribs. I've not found better than Costco for maple syrup. The other two, you can have mine.

The Aldi carts, at least here, the piece of plastic is metal. And it's supposed to make people take them back, but when I did a shopping thing during the pandemic there'd always be a cart in the parking lot, Id use one of those, amd after a few trips I'd collect enough quarters for a soda at the gas station.
Perhaps you missed the fact that you & l live
in different areas. Price competition will differ.

No, I just learned hardware stores just aren't a place to buy food. It's primitive, backwards and crude. I just simply didn't know any better but now I do. If fresh, edible produce isn't available it's probably not worth considering.
Menards is a place to buy bird seed. Lots and lots of bird seed!
Perfect!
I'll leave it for you elite foodies with noses
raised high to shop at fancier places.
It's the sniffing (and greeting) time not the walking speed for us.

And no one noticed he was missing for 3 days..... he survived on candy bars..... it was not until someone noticed that the candy was gone and they went to refill the rack that he was foundA visit to any grocery store can be fraught with peril.

No, showing off with indications you shouldn't is frought with peril for the misconfidenced dummy buy but filled with laughs for the observer.A visit to any grocery store can be fraught with peril.

Someone mentioned sardines earlier. I once ate sardines regularly, or every once in awhile.
Then I grew up, realized that some things, like play-dough, and wall paste, and canned sardines, you shouldn't eat.

Sitting in the courtyard enjoying an iced coffee listening the the many birds singing, chattering and arguing. Suddenly silence. Not a sound from any bird. Glancing at the bird feeder a sparrow and a siskin stand silent and frozen.
Then the reason why soars into view, a pair of hunting eagles circling above.
Such a tiny brain that senses danger and acts accordingly.
If it were cats, they'd be flapping like mad to get up and out of the way and make as much noise as they could to warn others. Danger from above they know that noise and movement attracts unwanted attention.
