Default New Aldi's in Spring, TX

Just wanted to share some good news with everybody in North Houston.
I was told that there's going to be a new Aldi's in Spring, across the street from the HEB on 2920 a mile West of I-45.
Today I drove by, and you can see the frame and a sign in front that says "Aldi's"
It's going to be located right next to an Autozone that is across the street from HEB.

That's great news for Houston. Since we are non-union in every way and so right-to-work, we have some of the lowest starting payrates and stagnant wages for retail in the entire country.

Aldi pays much more than the industry standard. I know there's only a few Aldis and Trader Joe's proposed thus far, but it is a start.

It does sadden me that it is taking a non-American company to up retail pay in this country. That's a real shame.
