My wife: They don't even sell the same stuff.

Me:Yeah, I'm sure they had to split their assets in the divorce.

Is this like Aldi and Lidl, or Puma and Adidas?

That's not the case, there's an ALDI north and south. The brothers Albrecht split because of a dispute on weather or not they should sell cigarettes. ALDI = Albrecht Discount.
