A local newspaper liveblogged the opening of a new Aldi and it was hilarious
YESTERDAY WAS A big day for the city of Worcester with a new, bigger Aldi opening its doors.
There were prizes given out to people who had queued from the wee hours and even a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Trés glam altogether.
On hand to cover the event were local newspaper Worcester News, who documented the shop’s opening with perhaps the greatest liveblog ever.
