Yep, at 9:30 AM I was told they all went to the 200 people lined up when the
shop opened. (Didn't say how many of those still missed out though)
Now WHY do people find it necessary to line up before the shop opens,
because EVERY week there is something ALDI advertise that they have NO
intention of stocking in sufficient numbers to meet the expected demand. How
do they continually get away with it? And why do they not think it pisses
off more people than it attracts? I quite like ALDI for some groceries, but
every time they piss me off with such tactics, I don't go back for ages!
