They had good prices on some things. Other things, nothing special. I learned to watch the scanner clisely. Recently, over half the items I scanned had prices higher than shown on the shelf. Amazon engaged in dynamic pricing. They raised prices if they noticed that sales were brisk.

The Lidl in Columbia Heights? Wow, the lines.
