In fact, the German supermarket chain - made popular by its speedy check-out and no-fuss shopping - has become a go-to for many, but there are some things we should all know. Aldi workers have revealed what you should know about shopping in-storeCredit: Getty The check-out is different A former employee previously revealed the reason why Aldi staff move at super-speed when scanning your items. And it's because they once had scanning targets to meet - although this isn't the case anymore. Another reason check-out workers are able to move so swiftly is because Aldi products have multiple barcodes, a former worker told My London. This means staff don't have to fumble about in search of where to scan - and you can whizz through in minutes. What's more, the length of the conveyor belt was specifically designed for customers to be able to unload a full trolley and still fit everything in one go. You've probably been saying Aldi wrong An Aldi insider told Fabulous that the right way to pronounce it is 'Al-di', rather than drag it out by saying 'All-di'. The supermarket's name actually came from the surname of the brothers who started the chain in 1946, Karl and Theo Albrecht. The 'Al' is taken from Albrecht, and the 'di' comes from discount. Why there are never 'buy one get one free' deals We all love a good deal when we see one but Aldi makes a point of not having any. Instead, the supermarket is committed to offering the lowest prices for the best quality products every single day, the Aldi insider told us. But Aldi's Specialbuys aisle always has some pretty good offers available. And its "Super 6" selection of seasonal fruit and veg offers good food for a reduced price. There's a 'right time' to shop Apparently, when products are on their last day of shelf life, Aldi will reduce prices by 30% before stores open and by 75% before shops){kind=link}
