The groceries are paid for online, so that will be a hassle to get this straightened out. I will not order delivery groceries again. I will go back to Wal-Mart for...
Read moreI shop here frequently. The prices are decent and the produce is almost always fresh. Everything is easy to find here. Well organized and very clean. They keep their restrooms well kept. I don’t normally use public restrooms but here it doesn’t bother me because it’s so clean. They have wonderful customer service and there’s always someone to lend a helping hand when you need assistance. Great place to...
