QUOTE (user23 @ Apr 8 2011, 08:42 PM) I wonder what happened to Aldi's attempt to open a supermarket in Newbury? Went the same way as the Labour Party's attempt to usurp the Tories in Newbury I suspect.

QUOTE (NWNREADER @ Apr 10 2011, 07:27 PM) Maybe I'm grump, but why the interest in a less-than-top-quality store? What will it add to Newbury commerce? Willing to learn..... Have you shopped in an Aldi before?

QUOTE (JeffG @ Apr 19 2011, 10:57 AM) I have shopped in Lidl before now and have no complaints about the quaility of their goods. I only shopped once in Aldi - that was in Brussels and they didn't have any eggs. The only Aldi I've been in was in Hamburg!!!
