Lance's Fresh Market — Local services in Osseo

There's a wide selection of items in here, from fruit n veg, lots meats, hot foods and baked goods, baby items, pet and home stuff.. lots more. So it's a great store in that way. They also have some fantastic employees. Even the high school girl who has a job there is absolutely amazing, confident, and very helpful. I was nothing like her at that age, so it was great to see such a hard-working young girl. 😅

That's where my 3 stars stop rising because you're gonna spend an arm and a leg just buying a few essentials in here. Just yesterday, I went in for chicken, which is always my main reason for going to this store EVER, fresh meat.. I then picked up nutty bars and a small block of cheese. Tell me how those 3 items came to $20? The prices are outrageous here. Even nutty bars that usually have a $4.99 price stamp on them in other stores were marked up in Lances! For a tin of peas or condensed soup it's like $2.50! Don't even get me started on the convenient hot food for grab n go. They're so heavily priced that I'd rather take a trip down to Kwik trip! Oh and they always have these two carts in the bakery area full of all kinds of reduced price stuff. Tell me how a package of cookie mix is reduced by anything much when it's still costing $3.30?! Or apple sauce, cheap pack of 6 pots, price reduced to $2.50.. So even the 'reduced prices' appear more like a normal price than a saving.

Only shop here if you have a bunch of money to throw away or you're someone loaded with EBT. Neither of which Iam, so I avoid it as much...

I ran in quick looking for but none were on offer. When I went upfront to ask an employee where I might be able to find some in town, I found two women talking. Keep in mind I was the ONLY customer in the store. I stood directly in front of them and waited till they finished their conversation, never even looked at me. I figured if they couldn't greet a customer they probably didn't have any help skills either and just walked out. Bleak customer service...

Open til 9pm every night except the night that I discovered I'm out of ice cream at 8pm but I'm too drunk to drive so I speed walk 7 miles in my underwear get there at 842 pm and it's locked up tighter than Joe bidens teleprompter when he's trying to address the nation... now my toes and balls are frozen and I still don't have any ice cream... very disappointing... someone pick me up by the dumpster and bring me...
