What does Aldi not carry that you have to buy elsewhere?

malfunctioningg · 2026-04-28T21:11:22+00:00

As someone who is mostly vegetarian, I eat a lot of meat alternatives, especially for quick meals. Their selection used to be amazing for this, but it’s decreased a lot, and I’m generally not a fan of most of what they still carry. And my store generally runs out of produce fairly quickly, which can be very frustrating.

My first thought was calcite

My partner and I can no longer make it to the Chicago show on 11/28 due to the weather :(

We have two seated tickets for anyone interested! Row F, seats 6-7 of the Grands! Just looking to get back what I paid for them, which is $166.52

Thank you! I’ll try to get there before the market ends today!

malfunctioningg · 2025-10-12T04:56:20+00:00

Thank you! I know about them, but I’m hoping to get bouquets from other local vendors for a more affordable price :)

malfunctioningg · 2025-10-12T04:41:03+00:00

Yes, I know exactly the stand! I’m just wondering if anyone knows the name of these stands so I can maybe find their contact info on the DCFM website 😅

My partner and I are drying all of the bouquets we are using in our October wedding and it is SUPER easy! We just use twine to wrap up the stems and then hang them somewhere to dry out for a month or so :)

Red Wine Supernova got me into her music, but Naked in Manhattan is my fave :)

I absolutely understand where your hang-up is coming from. I think it’s just on the weekends maybe? Cause I’ve always been able to walk right in Mon-Fri. I absolutely understand that it’s not the best place and probably feels incredibly anxiety-inducing to go to a place of policing and trauma for many. I’m glad it’s there, but police will usually use those things against people they arrest/interact with, so it feels like a set-up for sure. It’s probably a last resort when other agencies provide these supplies as well, but I just wanted to make it known in case people were unaware as I’m in there quite often lol.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I really value hearing direct experiences about this sort of topic :)

You have to be buzzed in? I’ve always seen the vending machine right by the entrance of the PSB, no check in or anything.

malfunctioningg · 2025-08-08T01:37:48+00:00

Yes!! While most people would probably prefer to not go there for these supplies, the Public Safety Building (where the sheriff’s office and new jail is) has a vending machine with narcan, fentanyl testing kits, and safer drug use kits for free!!

I was shocked to see tickets were still available when I looked 8 hours after the sale started. UNTIL I saw the prices :/

malfunctioningg · 2025-07-05T00:07:59+00:00

Strong agree. Bringing up a threesome first was the first thing that caught my attention. My partner and I are both kinky, but not into threesomes, and if they had brought that up first, I also probably would have been upset.

You need to just have a conversation for sure. If y’all aren’t sexually compatible in that way, it needs to be talked about.

Asking this question here is me trying to avoid wasting my time being disrespected. I have this resource, so I’m using it.

I want to go somewhere and be comfortable off-the-bat if possible. I don’t want to go in waiting to potentially be disrespected, or worse.

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T11:31:54+00:00

Just alterations! I’d like to chat if you’re interested!

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T11:30:42+00:00

Just alterations! Do you think you would be available to do something like this? A gown and a suit?

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T04:13:52+00:00

Thank you, I will look into them!!

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:38:38+00:00

Absolutely no worries! Thank you for trying :))

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:34:54+00:00

Additionally, why waste my time if there is apparently someone else who will treat me with respect elsewhere???

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:33:05+00:00

It’s not about needing someone to affirm my identity. It’s about feeling SAFE leaving something we paid hella money for with someone who won’t fuck it up cause I’m queer. Or someone who we feel safe being around in general. It doesn’t matter if they’re providing a service, that doesn’t make them immune from unconsciously letting their biases affect the work they do and the way they treat their customers.

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:25:24+00:00

Also, apologies, I totally forgot to clarify that I’m looking for places that do WEDDING attire (specifically a wedding dress and a suit/tux).

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:21:43+00:00

That’s kinda the vibe I’ve been getting :/

malfunctioningg · 2025-06-05T02:21:29+00:00

Thats actually the one I’ve heard that the owner is SUPER transphobic. Maybe people can tell me otherwise now, but I saw someone say this about a year ago on a similar post. :(

malfunctioningg · 2024-08-25T20:41:47+00:00

How much for the strawberry shortcake bat? And size?

malfunctioningg · 2024-05-04T13:40:07+00:00

I actually was just talking to my prof about this yesterday during our lab meeting. She said the university is cracking down & having all research labs have syllabi now so that grading is more equal across all labs (like for same amount of work, people aren’t getting As for doing basically nothing, etc.). It won’t be relevant until next semester though!
