Save A Lot — Local services in Longmont

It's my first time here & while I found some of the prices to be fair there really wasn't much of a selection. The cashier didn't seem to speak any English when I tried to communicate with her which is sad IMO.😕😟

I brought in a coupon for this specific store for a free loaf of Sara Lee Bread & after grabbing other items I had to get the wheat instead of white cos there wasn't any place even for the white to be stocked.

I asked nicely if that's ok since they don't have what they advertized on hand.

The cashier spoke to another cashier asking her I think & then a Manager too I think.... but all 3 of them spoke only in Spanish in front off me so I'm not sure what was said...?

All I do know is it felt very RUDE of them if they do know how to speak English to speak only Spanish in front of me so i couldn't understand what's being said about my simple request.

Afterwords I also had to ask the cashier nicely if she could please get the items from the bottom of a basket (that wasn't mine) & help me to place all my items (about 12) in a bag please?

I explained that I have a very bad back & can't bend to retrieve them where she placed my groceries unbagged & i asked 'please' one more time.

She pointed to where the bags were & I got one. She started with the next person in line as if she never heard a single word of me asking for help.

Again it felt very RUDE of her to ignore me all together even if she doesn't know any English...she knew I was nicely asking for a bit of help at the least. It was painful for me but i retrieved all my items alone.

I'd bet money that they all know a lot more English than they let on which is even more RUDE to not speak it in front of someone who's clearly English speaking only.

If you're going to live in our country at least learn our language!!!!!! I'd learn Spanish if i wanted to go visit where they're from.😕😟

Needless to say i most likely won't be going back.

Save-A-Lot is great! They have specialized this particular store to meet the tastes of our local Hispanic community, so if you're looking for these wonderful, poppin' flavors and ingredients, this is the place to come! Great Mexican deli, too. Their produce is always very fresh, although sometimes can be limited because as a smaller market they must do their buying carefully. Prices in all areas are excellent. Nice bakery, too. Just remember, it's a smaller market so supplies can reflect that. Meat department is quite small, but they do have basics and South-of- the-border specialties. I love shopping there, and as a tall, blond male I tend to stand out, but the folks there are ALWAYS friendly and helpful to me. Today, for instance, I asked for help finding guacamolé. The guy behind the bakery area, José, left his station and searched the entire store for alternatives because they were all out. He brought me a great mix, and his co-worker offered suggestions for how to best make it. I felt like a visiting dignitary! It was so cool. Definitely...

yikes. this place is kind of a disaster. sorry to call it out for being such a sloppy excuse for a store, but I just had to since I saw so much sadness in this place when I came in. first of all there was a man who I'm assuming was homeless that was sleeping with his mouth wide open right there on the concrete in front of the store secondly, there was then restrooms that were for sure the most disgusting excuses public bathrooms that I've ever seen in my life... they actually looked like jail bathrooms now that I think about it, which is totally awesome no doubt. the third and last thing that I will mention here that made it so bad is the line being so long and slow moving that I ended up giving up trying to purchase any of the few things that I came here to get and just went home. THE ONE BRIGHT SIDE THOUGH... is that they had water bottles for like $0.30??? but I couldn't actually even buy any of them since the line was just too unbelievably long to wait...
