Stop & Shop — Local services in North Adams

I have to admit that Stop & Shop is not my usual go to for groceries, but where I happen to be staying now it is the closest grocery store so I gave it a try. I was really impressed with the organic / Health Food /gluten free section of the store. I bought a 3-pound bag of Mandarin oranges along with several other things, and the next day when I had my first orange out of the bag I thought it was a little on the mushy side, but didn't think too much about it. The next day I went to grab another orange, and it was a bit moldy. When I checked through the bag I noticed a few more that had a little bit of mold on them. I was really surprised when I brought them back to the store and not only did I get my money back, but I got twice the cost of the oranges back. The gal at the customer service desk explained to me that that is their policy for fresh produce. They pride themselves on fresh produce and guarantee our satisfaction. I...

Can I give zero stars? Horrible store. The self scanners are by far the worse I've used anywhere. The settings are so ridiculously sensitive. I don't think I've ever gone in and not needed the staff person to come clear the scanner. Never happens at Big Y, Walmart, Hanniford. The scanning area is often dirty.

I asked why not and the woman in the bakery said they just don't put up prices since the prices sometimes change. Oh, ok.

I love going to this grocery store. They have everything from groceries, to flowers, make up and delicious Bakery Goods to a nice pharmacy. It is always very clean, well-organized and stocked. I love there small clearance section on fruits and vegetables. They put one day old fruits and vegetables in a package, mark it at $0.79 a pound and sell them. It's an amazing way to get awesome food! They also have some beautiful bouquets of flowers there. When I first moved back to Massachusetts from North Carolina I went to their Pharmacy and asked if they took my insurance card so I could get the flu shot. Unfortunately they didn't accept my card however they offer a program where everybody gets a free flu shot! Isn't that awesome? They gave me a quick complementary flu shot :-) I probably go here three times a week. I would highly...
