Aldi Employees Hate One Hack That Saves You Money

There's an Aldi hack that saves you money but employees hate: dodging purchase limit rules by breaking your order up among other family members.

According to its website, the chain has no official one-purchase-per-person restriction, "but each store does reserve the right to limit quantities" as needed.

To get around any restrictions, some customers will head to Aldi with two or three family members or friends. Each person grabs an item and goes to the checkout separately.

Employees usually catch on quickly. "In these cases, we're forced to ask the… customer to put back the excess, and that's annoying," an Aldi employee told Business Insider.

Although they may be inconvenient, the purchase limits exist for a reason, so customers should try and ensure that all shoppers have equal access to limited items.
