In spite of all the bad reviews it seems people are oblivious to it all. Why? Who knows. I went into the Dover branch again the other day and nothing had changed at all. Still the dreadful checkouts, still the staff rushing goods over their scanners, still the frayed tempers because of it, but still they keep coming. It cannot be because of good quality because that is something it is not. My advice, after reading a recent tale of woe regarding checkout speed is this.... simply keep your speed down as you take your stuff off. Pack it where you are and not on the packing bar. If it keeps going onto the floor let it go there and ask to see the manager and complain. To the best of my knowledge there is nothing saying you must pack elsewhere, and even if there were so what. I am of the opinion that Aldi are doomed in the long run in Dover, losing out to the excellent new Lidl store down where B&Q was, if it has gone yet.
