An Australian customer has shared her hilarious experience shopping at budget supermarket Aldi, calling out the need to bring a coin with you for a trolley, defend yourself from quick-fire product ‘throwing’ at the checkout and the layout of the store.
TikTok user @romaneevirgara took to the social media app five days ago with her hot take on the German grocer, saying those who shop there are definitely crazier than any other supermarket shoppers.
‘I am of the very strong opinion you need to be moderately to severely unhinged to shop regularly at Aldi,’ she started.
‘First red flag, you need a coin or a token to get a trolley. I’m in there. I’m trying to find bananas. I’ve walked past a three-piece aluminium dining set, a saxophone starter kit, two kilos of pickled quail eggs – where are the freaking bananas?’

Once she had almost ‘torn her hair out’ trying to find the three ingredients on her shopping list the savvy saver said 75 minutes had passed and she had to head to the register.
‘And as I’m walking towards that register, my palms are sweaty, my heartbeat’s racing, my breathing’s become jagged with the fear of what’s about to unfold,’ she said.
‘You get there, the shop assistant grunts at you and starts f***ing throwing groceries at you. You’re dodging and waving… Then if you survive that, you’re packing your own stuff at lightning speed, and then you’ve got to get out there and get your coin back!’
Returning the trolley was a debacle unto itself as she struggled to figure out how to get the cart to ‘release’ her coin.
‘I just stood there for about three minutes trying to figure out what the f*** is going on until some 100-year-old woman was like, “Aww you put that previous trolley thing in the thing and it spits out” Lady, I’ve got three brain cells left.’

The online rant garnered her plenty of attention with many avid Aldi devotees acknowledging there was some stress involved to shop there.
‘Try adding three kids under six to the mix,’ someone commented.
‘Bro the anxiety at Aldi checkouts kills me,’ another viewer said.
‘Bananas are the first thing you see when you walk in. I also know plenty of Coles that need coins for the trolley. But yes, it is stressful,’ one person pointed out. ‘Mind you, I have perfected the Aldi checkout now. And much cheaper than Coles/Woolies so worth the stress haha.’
