Kroger — Local services in Collierville

Well a couple of weeks ago I had a great experience in Kroger on Houston Levee, so my sister and I decided to get there about 8 am and check shopping off our list. We have family visiting and we needed a few items. Well, I remembered the young lady in the deli on my last visit and she was Sooooo helpful and kind. She had a great attitude, so I stopped in the deli after picking up some fruit. Well she wasn’t there, but another lady was already there busy slicing meat. I waited patiently, but after a while, I realized maybe she didn’t see me. Then I saw the young lady who waited on me before, but she was going to the back. So I continued to wait for the lady who was still slicing meat. My sister came along and I said maybe they’re not open yet. So, she asked the lady if they were open. The lady replied, “8:00”. It was 8:15. So, I just figured she was busy because she never asked us if we wanted anything. We decided to skip my favorite Honey Maple Turkey Breast. I really wanted my family to taste it because I’m always raving about how delicious it tastes. Oh well. Sometimes Life...

I’m a regular customer at this Kroger and usually use self-checkout, but yesterday the line was long so I decided to go through a cashier. I was helped by a cashier named Melissa, and the entire experience left me feeling deeply uncomfortable and unwelcome.

From the moment I placed my groceries on the belt, Melissa did not acknowledge me. She didn’t greet me, ask if I had a Kroger number, or tell me my total. When it came time to give me my receipt, she simply placed it down without a word. Another employee ended up bagging my items, and still, there was no “thank you” or “have a nice day” from Melissa.

It may seem small to some, but being completely ignored like that, especially as a Black customer, felt intentional and left me feeling disrespected and unseen. I’ve never had an experience like this at this location before, and it was extremely disappointing.

Everyone deserves to be treated with basic courtesy and respect. I hope Kroger takes this seriously and provides proper training or support to ensure that all customers feel welcome because yesterday, I...

Once upon a time in the bustling kingdom of Memphis, there lived a humble villager who ventured to the grand market of Kroger. With dreams of a sumptuous feast, the villager purchased a golden box of fried chicken, hoping it would be a meal fit for royalty.

Alas, when the villager returned to their cozy cottage and opened the box. The once-crispy chicken had turned stale and sad, as if it had been cursed by a wicked witch. The first bite was a disaster; the meat was dry and flavorless, and the breading crumbled into a tasteless dust.

The villager's disappointment grew with each bite, and soon they realized that this chicken was not the magical meal they had hoped for. Instead, it was a dreadful concoction, unworthy of even the lowliest of peasants. With a heavy heart and an empty stomach, the villager vowed never to be deceived by the false promises of Kroger's fried chicken again.

And so, the tale of the terrible fried chicken spread throughout the land, warning others of the culinary catastrophe that awaited them at...
