2 St. Cloud-area grocery stores named among the best

USA TODAY has released its list of the 10 best grocery stores in the U.S. for 2026. Two of the supermarkets included in the top 10 have locations you can visit right here in the St. Cloud area. USA TODAY 10Best ranked U.S. grocery stores for their value, selection and service. The 10 best grocery stores were nominated by an expert panel and voted on by readers. The ranking was released in early September. Two chains with central Minnesota locations made the list: Fresh Thyme Market and Aldi. Here's where they landed. Aldi Aldi came in at No. 4 on the 10best list. Low prices are also a big selling point for Aldi shoppers. One way Aldi is able to provide these lower prices is by offsetting other costs.

This reduces the need for extra employees to bring in carts from the parking lot.

Bomb-lab defendant sentenced in Monticello weapons case

MONTICELLO — Years before a roadside explosion led authorities to a Big Lake home filled with homemade explosives, guns and 3D-printed weapon parts, Jantje Rorman had already landed in court over another homemade weapon — this one fired at Montissippi Regional Park. Rorman, 51, was sentenced Nov. 4 in Wright County District Court for violating probation in the 2022 Monticello weapons case. He was sentenced to 188 days in jail but received credit for all 188 days already served, meaning he will serve no additional jail time in the case. The court also closed the case. The sentence comes about a year after Rorman's arrest in a high-profile Sherburne County explosives case that began when a deputy witnessed a roadside blast in Big Lake Township. At the time of that incident, Rorman was still subject to probation conditions from the Monticello case prohibiting him from possessing firearms or dangerous weapons.
