Save A Lot — Local services in Tellico Plains

Trash store, while on vacation here from Illinois we were staying in Coker Creek so this was the only grocery store close to us and had to unfortunately shop here. The cuts of pork chops we’re subpar and spoiled unusually quick and the milk we bought had a week and a half sell by date left and when opened it was spoiled. My wife tried bringing it right back driving another 20 mins into town to exchange and they refused to do it bc we didn’t have a receipt that the young guy clerk never gave us in the first place.
