Stop & Shop — Attraction in City of White Plains

I am not a fan of this store. In general, I do not care the big mainstream supermarkets. Way too much crap to have to navigate around, and much of the fresh items can be found with better quality, for less money.

In essence, it's a massive specialty store for me.

Things I buy:

Barilla pasta (only when on sale for 99¢ / lb or less; sometimes it goes as low as 88¢. I'll usually 10-20 lbs to last until the next sale.

Canned tomatoes. Same as the pasta. I wait for the big sale for 99¢ / 28 oz can, then stock up.

Cantaloupes

Haas avocados

Kind Bars

Meatloaf mix

Ground pork

Ground veal

Boars Head cold cuts

Cucumbers

Organic grapes (on the rare occasion they have them)

Ice cream

Things I avoid:

Cheese (e.g. Romano, Parmesan, Brie, etc.

Chicken (Trader Joe's organic is often less than their non-organic)

Bags of ice (It's actually less at Whole Foods

Anything from their bakery.

Their parking lot is simply chaos. People park pretty much anywhere they want. Very symbolic of the store's management abilities, not to mention a pain to deal with.

Lastly, and this is not their fault, but the traffic light on Westchester Avenue, is insane. Only lets 3 cars go through per cycle, tops. If there's a line, it can be 5+ minutes to get out. Quicker to turn around and go out...

I will never use this pharmacy ever again. I ran out of my lexapro, so I brought my prescriptions to the pharmacy and asked when they would be ready. The younger white woman with dark hair told me they weren’t to be picked up until December 15th, even though I told her that couldn’t be possibly because I ran out of my lexapro and it is really dangerous to miss a dose. I handed her 3 perscriptions for 3 medications and she told me I could not have any of them. I really only needed the lexapro instantly. I left very upset. The next day she called me to say that she misread my lexapro prescription and that I should have been able to get it when I needed it. She made it sound like I was in the wrong for asking for all of them, when it was her who did not read carefully. When I went to pick it up and she apologized again, her manager said “what happened?” And she lied saying “oh she’s just picking up a prescription. Lies. I could easily sue this store for refusing my medication because their staff is incompetent. When I received the rest of my medicine only half of it was there. Even though they had a week to order in the...

I can't even begin to explain my frustration with this specific location! First of all, the people that work here have the WORST filthy attitude of life! When they check you out at the registers they give you a bad attitude. The customer service is HORRIBLE!!! I had to call and complain numerous times. I used to shop at this location at least 3-4 times a week. It's very convenient for me to shop here but I had to stop coming here for a while and I started going to the other stop & shop on Broadway which is better than this place but they don't have a few things that this stop & shop has so I had to come back here and I see things have not changed. They charge me for food that I never purchased so I had to go back to the store to get my money back. Its a good thing I go through my receipt when I get home but it sucks that I had to go back. I have been to so many stop & shop stores before but this specific location is...
