Maybe they'll be willing to have enough staff on duty to have more than one check out running at a time now... or even a self-service "baskets only" terminal or something at least?

I do like aldi, the food is great quality and definitely keeps the weekly shop cost down significantly, BUT... it drives me mental when I want to go in to pick up a couple of things during my lunch half-hour and there are 4 or 5 people with full trollies waiting at the one available check out. I'm not waiting 15 minutes to buy a pack of ham and some yoghurts...

They also treat their staff like ****, which is unfortunate, but in most of the larger towns their grunt staff is mainly students who won't be staying long term anyway so that's not so much of a problem. Wouldn't want to be a lifer there. Their record for staff welfare is abysmal.
