Aldi is a discount grocery chain known for its no-frills approach.

The stores feature quarter-deposit shopping carts, a bring-your-own bags policy, and limited store brands.

The compact layout showcases weekly special buys alongside essential groceries, with minimal décor and efficient checkout systems to keep prices low.

So I must admit that when I saw Lobster Tails and Snow Crab Legs for sale I was a bit surprised.

Yet there they were in the Aldi Finds freezer. The Aldi Finds section, also known as "Special Buys" or the "Aisle of Dreams," is a unique feature that changes weekly.

5 Things South Dakota Gave the World

South Dakota may not get much respect. We get a blizzard and it's a footnote on the national scene, but if Florida gets a bit chilly it's breaking news. But, maybe it's fine to be forgotten about. We kind of like being left alone on our quiet piece of the plains.

South Dakota has given a lot to the world though. Not just giant mountain carvings and settings for HBO shows, but awesome things that the rest of the world should thank us for.
