Hood Canal Market Fresh — Local services in Shelton

All of the older staff members on the cash registers have terrible attitudes. They are often very short in their words and snarky. Each of the times I have been to this location the older cashiers have had the same unfriendly attitudes. When checking out I bite my tongue as to not escalate their sour mood, but I have seen them treat other shoppers with the same attitude. That being said, the younger staff members that you see stocking the shelves and janitorial work are very kind and courteous. They should be on the registers! I also saw an older lady (probably the manager?) confront a younger gentlemen outside for putting trash in their trashcan while he was loading groceries in his car. For what? Using the trashcan they provide for shoppers? The younger gentlemen made the right choice by seemingly ignoring her unwarranted confrontation. I feel they think they can act this way since they are the only grocery store in the area. People will shop here despite the older staff’s sour and unwelcoming attitudes. I will not. Do yourself a favor and shop outside...

I stopped to get gas around 8:20PM on 8/13/23 and had about a 1/4 tank left in my Toyota Tacoma. I pulled up to pump 8 on the outside lane, put my credit card in and began fueling. After 7gal the nozzle clicked off. I knew I wasn't done fueling so I kept trying and it would not dispense anymore fuel and kept clicking off. Seemed strange, but I figured it was a faulty nozzel. I put the nozzle back and moved up to the next nozzle expecting to put around another 7gal in. My tank is only 21gal according to Toyota. It pumped another 14gal before stopping. I've never pumped 21gal into my truck ever. My fuel light was not even on. I asked the person behind the counter and he didn't seem interested in documenting the problem or taking my information. Today I tried calling the store to talk to a manager and it went to a message wishing me Merry Christmas. So no hope anyone would be listening to those messages. Beware buying gas there. Something is seriously wrong with...

the good reviews are from non locals. I live up here and everyone hates them. I’ve watched them hike up their prices an absurd amount while underpricing things that nearby small local businesses are trying to sell. They not only take away business from the actual local stores here, they also take advantage of the elderly community (many whom can’t travel all the way to Shelton for groceries) by charging double what is charged at other grocery stores like Freddie’s and Walmart. Many of us are on retirement and only have what we’ve saved up. I can travel 40 minutes to buy a can of tuna for 99 cents or drive 10 minutes and buy the same can for $3. It’s immoral. This isn’t even a local small business like people think, it’s a chain. The owners should be ashamed of themself, all the old folks up here talk about how much we hate this store. Shame on you for exploiting our community,...
