NEW ALDI STORE IN BRIGG OPENS & WELCOMES FIRST SHOPPERS TODAY

The new Alid store in Brigg opened at 8am today (Thursday, September 24, 2020) with about a dozen shoppers queuing to become the first to use the new facility off Bridge Street when the doors were unlocked.
Brigg Blog was among them and took time to tour the store, which we must say it larger than we expected in terms of floor space.
Friendly staff were busy greeting customers and helping them to locate items along the aisles.
Unfortunately, cool and wet weather this morning coincided with the Aldi opening but some people still visited on foot, although the majority came by car.
We had a walk down and used one of the new pedestrian crossing points provided on the A18. We didn't observe any difficulties relating to the new mini-roundabout offering access to, and entry from, the new store.
As for prices... Baked beans 29p a can, four cans of 'own brand' cider (440ml) £1.89, a jar of horseradish sauce 79p. Brigg Blog goes shopping for essentials?
Aldi has asked us to stress that face masks must be worn by shoppers inside the Brigg store, and they need to keep their distance from staff and other customers.
