Save A Lot — Local services in Elyria

The store is clean, employees have always been nice. They are open till 10pm ! Best prices for steaks*.

I work late so at times I have been there 10 min before closing and never rushed. Although I am respectful and quickly get what I need and make it to the checkout with time to spare. Other stores are locking their doors and telling you to hurry on their loudspeaker when there is 30 till close. Talk about giving people anxiety. Like all shopping you must DYOR. Some items can be more expensive and some cheaper. Everything went up price wise, thanks to inflation, your buddies you voted for and minimum wage hike but @ Save-a-lot you still find a lot of food on the cheap. I did have to quit A1 sauce because it's not cheap anywhere ($7 a bottle!). There are tips: Everyone should be onto the tube ground meat by now. You get 50% less meat and you are straining the rest (grease/fat/$) out. (hopefully not down your drain!) Same with some frozen beef/filler patties when compare to others. They will be on fire 🔥 in seconds, dripping grease,, nearly impossible to grill and not burn. Buy the fresh ground meat and spend a little more and you will get more. Test it out yourself: make idk... beef stroganoff or 🌮. Brown 2lb fresh and 2lb of tube beef. You get coupons with your receipts sometimes, so use them. The fresh chicken wings are always cheaper than others but...be careful they always seem to have access blood that will leak out the clear wrapper in your car if not careful 🤮. It happens everywhere tho, something like a phenomenon. It is the no bag thing that can be more noticeable. This Save-a-lot is a bonus here. You can wash your reusable bags if it does leak. Giant Eagle bags can not save you from the leak either, so dont try a 1-up on my post.😆 I take them home, wash them re wrap and take out fridge next day and there is chicken fluid again. Maybe they keep the chickens hydrated 🤔.

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 My only I wish 🤞is if you could please cut your steaks to a butchers proper 1- 1/2 inch thickness (at least 1in). 🙏 Nothing pains me more than a thin overcooked steak or a thin medium rare steak and hot coals leftover. Charcoal isn't cheap. It is by weight and I have been in the store with another thick steak hunter going through the packaged meats to find the thickest of the bunch. Staring eye to eye at each other and eachothers gone through stash, hoping they missed one close enough to the specs your looking for. Ready to pounce on that thick porterhouse before the other customer can see what you just uncovered from the corner of their eye and snatch it from the pile. The steak...

(Save A Lot Cares A Lot)

Save A Lot is a wonderful shopping experience where you can go to save money. Sure they don't have everything more top end stores have but for the cost and what you get here. Its hard to beat the prices. The staff in this store is friendly to the customers. The store is VERY Active. The only con I can think of. Is that the entrance and exit. is quite small and cumbersome. Wheelchair people will need to be careful entering and exiting. In case of a emergency and or a fire it might be a challenge exiting the store in time. The shop also provide cleaning solutions so that we can keep our carts clean and free of Coronavirus. Would love to see more stores do this! Kudos to Save A Lot who...
