Washington Consumers' Checkbook looked at prices and quality across local grocery store chains. Here's what it found.
There are now so many options for grocery shopping — including warehouse clubs; alt-grocers Aldi, Lidl and Trader Joe’s; and smaller chains that focus on quality — that consumers often make several stops to get everything they need.
Whole Foods remains an expensive choice — and its ratings for quality continue to dip. When Amazon purchased it in 2017, many consumers were excited by the prospect of paying Amazon-like prices for Whole Foods-quality products, but that hasn’t happened. Although Whole Foods’ customers rated it fairly highly in “overall quality” , that’s considerably lower than five years ago.
Aldi’s prices were 44 percent lower than the all-store average for Checkbook’s full-market basket; Lidl’s were 36 percent lower. But these savings come with a downside: Aldi was rated relatively poorly on many aspects of quality; Lidl’s ratings were better, but not stellar. Even Aldi’s low score for overall quality, though, was better than those for Safeway, Target and Walmart.
