Swanjaxs said:Don't buy bananas in Aldi is the main talking point in this thread if you don't mind me being so forward kid
Absolutely furious I was op
You are 100 per cent correct, it's the only proof you have of purchasing each item, plus you may have been overcharged for certain goods.jack123 said:Nothing really, the bottom line is spend 100 plus in Aldis, and the muppets ask if you would like a receipt, so IMO if anything is untoward with the food you just bought, you would not have a leg to stand on.. !00 quid plus mind, not just loaf of bread.
jack123 said:With all due respect, I can't understand the bloody problem here, it's quite simple, you go to a shop, spend 100 quid plus, and the wankas in Aldis say would you like a receipt. My problem is, the wankas in Aldis even asking that question..

Labelling all Aldi workers as wankas because they dare politely ask you if you want a receipt. Have a word with yourself.
Swanjaxs said:Just to put this to bed and having asked the polite young lady over the Co-op this morning, the only reason they politely ask if you would like a receipt or not is because most paper receipt's end up in landfill and are not recycled, it's simply to help save the planet and absolutely nothing sinister.

Swanjaxs said:Funny you should mention Aldi, a while ago myself and the wife gave Aldi a go (we usually use Sainsburys across the road), she turned to me and said, "do you want bananas for work", as it was a Friday and I wasn't in work until the Monday night I said "yes please, but get some green ones so they'll ripen up by Monday.
Well here's the thing, come Monday they were still as green as anything, by the Thursday no change in appearance, "put them on the windowsill in the kitchen I said, the sun will ripen them"
A week later, no change, ten days, no change, eventually, in frustration, I picked up one of the bananas and snapped it in half just like a carrot!
They ended up in the bin.
So, my question is, are Aldi selling badly gone wrong genetically modified fruit?...

jack123 said:Well the way I see it, why put the onus on the customer? I told them before, when asked, because i was bloody sick of it, I said get rid of all your free magazines first before even asking, you work it out, just one of those Aldis free mags, is the equivalent of a hundred plus receipts.
They are like bloody robots in there, scanning the items like it's an Olympic event, then do you want a receipt? Cash or card? I had them though, the other day as she was on the last item, I said cash, and I want a receipt.. Now that confuses them.
