The midweek TV documentary
exposing Aldi’s cost-cutting, corner-cutting practices did not seem to have any
effect on the supermarket’s popularity, or at least the popularity of its car
park in Newton Aycliffe, which I circled twice in vain before giving up,
parking elsewhere and going to the bakers to buy some bread (the only necessity
on the shopping list); my subsequent check back on the Aldi car park was more
successful, enabling me to slot into the only one of the seventy-five bays free,
however with no more than twenty or so in the store it was apparent that the rest
of the drivers were queuing at the tills of the newly opened £1 shop next door.
