I just moved to the Illinois Valley in July, so I don't have any loyalty to Shop Smart, but it was…read morehard to ignore the locals complaining about how Grocery Outlet moved into town and chopped down the most beloved tree in order to build their parking lot. I also often find it kind of gross when a business chooses to move right next store to a business that sells the exact same things. Still, I've managed to overcome these obstacles and enjoy my experiences at Gross Out. Although Shop Smart is still needed, as GO doesn't have everything you need for a balanced diet, their prices are truly out of this world. Things in Cave Junction tend to be a bit on the pricey side (Shop Smart regularly charges double the prices of other stores for basic goods like milk, eggs, and veggies) but GO charges what I've seen them charges in Grants Pass and Crescent City. I've heard rumors that it's easy to accidentally buy something rotten or expired while shopping there, but I haven't personally had that experience. Another reason I enjoy shopping at GO as opposed to the other one is the way I'm treated. At GO, checking out it easy and friendly; when I shop at the other place, I'm often waiting up to five minutes to check out--even if no one else is on line. At GO, I've had extended conversation with employees on every trip; at the other place I feel like I'm an inconvenience. As weird as it feels to give any kind of grocery store five stars, I would have done just that for Grocery Outlet. However, I'm the type of person who likes to go shopping almost every day to get snacks, lunch, and dinner for that day. I have to be at work at 8, and when I pass through CJ at 730 Grocery Outlet still isn't open. They would easily get double the money they get from me (and from at least six other folks I've spoken to who have actual jobs) if they opened only an hour early.

Although they have a register at the deli, they refuse to cash anyone out. They say they have no money, can't take cards, etc. All avoiding DOING anything. It's frustrating to say the last. It's not bad enough they are the only game in town, and their prices are triple what they are anywhere else, but they want us to BEG for the things they sell there.

Yes they are probably slightly higher than going all the way to Medford to a bigger grocer. The staff is hit and miss. Often times you can tell who is a local high schooler getting money to move out of the area. I don't blame them. The town isn't that big. Then you have the older employees who tries their best at customer service and it shows, however most tourist are from bigger populations where it has to be quick and done no chit chat. The employees take it in strides though because they know not everyone has been afforded manners and an open mind to relax and slow down. They used to- possibly still do have a small selection of video rentals. I haven't been there in a while and redbox may have encrouched on their small market. No alcohol on Sundays and they have a good selection of scratchers.

A new Mexican "tienda" here in town will be a welcome addition to the other Mexican shops. What I really liked was their "pan dulce" display case stocked with all the traditional sweet bread and baked goods from south of the border. As a kid, I spent a lot of time in Baja with the fam, and these colorful treats in front of me today really bring back fond memories. I also heard from the management staff that they plan on opening a "carniceria" (meat counter) inside the store with regional cuts and choices of meat. The store isn't huge, but it has a lot of interesting items. It's very clean and organized which made my shopping easy. It has an authentic Mexican vibe and I'll be back for more another day.

As I said before, it's the only store in Selma so don't expect much. It's completely rundown and in many ways disgusting it looks like it has not been maintained in anyway in about 25 years. In many ways I'm surprised it still passes health inspection. Also, don't expect them to have what you need , they are often sold out of many common things like water, milk, soda, eggs, basic fruits, and vegetables and just about any basic necessity you might think of needing. But don't worry because if you are looking for alcohol, they will always have plenty of it! If you are thinking of stopping in there just to get cash back think again. They often stop their cashback policy, depending on how the manager feels that day. Despite the fact that it's the only place within 10 miles to actually get cash they don't care. They routinely change their cashback amount From $25-$200 and often will tell you that they are unable to give cash back because they are told by corporate not to call for additional cash deliveries. They know they have this little small community hostage, and they don't care. Be prepared and by your necessities in another community.
