You will never not ever stop checkout staff from speeding your goods through way too fast. It is what they do come, what may. They have to do so. It is why this nasty little company recently published their worse ever trading results. That and their shoddy goods. It matters not if you are elderly or otherwise as fast it will be. They can be beaten of course by simply going at your own pace and packing your trolley at the end of the conveyer, but why should you have to resort to this anyway. If the staff had any feelings they would slow down at least for the older folks among us regardless of what management said. They won't though. Aldi offer cheap goods and not quality. The best company for recognising that not all of us are agile and capable is Morrisons. They will ALWAYS slow down for the elderly etc...AND...will go at a sensible speed anyway for the rest of us. Keep away from Aldi or if you must shop there make your feelings known on sites like this one. THEY XAN BE BEATEN.
