Shoppers Marketplace — Local services in Ypsilanti Charter Township

A middle-aged man (he was possibly Black and possibly an employee-but one who didn't seem to be dressed as a manager, someone who worked in loss prevention, and didn't have a name tag like the other employees) came over to the aisle I was at (at the back of the store) and said that I could not have a large tote bag in the store. I think he saw me in another area of the store, and was calling me. He was not too far away. Having faced street harassment, I thought he was some random person trying to catch my attention. I don't understand why he didn't just say in a louder (but kind voice), "Ma'am can you please leave the bag in the front? Sorry it is our store policy." It was weird to be followed around in the store. I obliged AND gave my large bag to the cashier as he insisted. This store seems to have a lot of signs on their doors/windows- what is on sale, their item availability, payment methods. If they have any store policy against large bags- they need to have it stand out. They even have a bulletin board. They are drowning with messages! If they are so concerned about large bags then they need to have a smaller sign at eye level when customers come in to shop. These persons need to understand that some of us take the bus and have tote bags or wheeled shopping carts on us. But if this store is ultimately so worried about theft, then they should have should have employees/hired security guard near the front door of the store asking customers to check in their large bag at the store before they start shopping. Following customers around the store is weird. Kroger/Meijer does...

I bought an off brand package of sliced ham. Opened it up the same day I bought it & it was smelly & no good. I took it back today, the exact next day but because I didn’t have a receipt, but I could show you I spent some money here according to my back account, I couldn’t get my money back. The so called manager said if I didn’t have a receipt, there’s nothing she can do. So you took my few $$ & couldn’t give them back because as she said, I could have bought it before the expiration date, which was a week before I bought it. I have no reason to cheat someone like that, so why don’t you go check on your packages of meat. I’m not concerned about the money although I’m on limited income. I just won’t ever be...

The lady that works in the meat department is always good when my mom checks out. She's in a wheelchair and she always makes sure my mom's bags are properly attached to her chair very friendly lady. There was a different cashier working when my husband came thru and she laid his change down and didn't even hand it to him.. Nor did she ] bag his few item's. While I was parked in the handicap a lady worker was gathering carts and hit my car and smiled at me no apology and continued going on her way. The male employees are much better mannered. The older man with the glasses is always helpful...
