> In my view it's quite an inconvenience: who carries quarters around anymore? I rarely have any cash with me, let alone loose change.
I suspect that if you are going to be shopping at Aldi, you're planning on shopping there and it's not a random one-off, so you already know about the quarters and bring one with you.
I often don't. I'll be at work, and think "crap, nothing for dinner, I'll stop at Aldi on the way home." But no quarters, because I didn't leave the house with the idea of stopping at Aldi.
Aldi is nice for quick stops because they aren't that big, they have most of what you might want but it doesn't take 30 minutes to get through the store like Kroger.
I try to keep a quarter in the car, but it often ends up in my pocket after I return the cart and I forget about it. I should drill a hole in one and put it on my keychain. But it won't be too long before we don't carry keys anymore either.
