Anyone know if there is an ALDI store on the north side of the Twin
Cities ? I thought I had heard that one of their stores in Little
Canada was robbed a while back. I can't find it if there is one.

Last summer I bought some of ALDI's Astra laundry detergent after
reading about it on the net. I got it in Rice Lake Wi. It was
supposed to be good stuff. When I was sawing last fall I had the cap
on my chainsaw oiler come off and soak my pants with half a tank of
motor oil. I treated the stain as best I could and washed it with
what ever good liquid detergent I had on hand at the time. I ended up
with a slightly faded stain left on the pants. I was about to
religate them to garage wear. Then the next time I washed I got a
chance to try out the Astra detergent and found that the rest of the
stain was completely removed. Man, it is good stuff. I want more at
$ 2.50 for 128 oz.
