    Rather than "remodel" the S. Penn store in Lansing again, they should really just close it down and…read morelet a Walmart move in. For the past decade or so, every "improvement" they've made has been a gigantic failure. When they remodeled the store ("Thrifty Acres") back in 2014 it never seemed to have the inventory that residents counted on them for, for decades prior. Meijer had been putting several other stores in the area (like Radio Shack for example) out of business because people could find what they were looking for at Meijer, without having to shop at other stores, and Meijer often had the products for less. Then when those businesses were already gone, the "new" Meijer no longer sold many of the products and those stores were no longer available to shop. The inventory changes at the "new" Meijer made it so people NOW had to travel elsewhere to find what they were looking for. Gradually, the inventory issues at that Meijer started growing to where they stopped carrying certain popular brands, or products in general that were staples to many of their shoppers in the past. Even before Covid, Meijer inventory issues were growing. They also introduced items that were popular and sold out quickly, but instead of increasing inventory, they decided to just stop carrying them all together. Currently, if they run out of something it can take MONTHS for them to restock it and they used to blame it on Covid, but the problem existed before and still to this day. When I asked a store manager why they always had so many issues with inventory, I was told that somewhere along the line, Meijer Corporate decided to stock stores in order according to the income level of an area. When the supply orders get sent out, they go to stock the richest neighborhood Meijers' first and the reason the S. Penn location is always low or out of stock, it's because they're last on the delivery list, so they get what's left over. I can't begin to express how disgusted I feel every time I shop at Meijer, and the ONLY reason I have still shopped there for the past few years is because I like to use the mPerks to get $1/gal discount on gas. I can never go to Meijer and get my entire grocery list, so I end up shopping at at least 2 grocery stores, every time I need groceries. Now, Meijer has become extremely stingy on the ways to earn mPerks, so I will be shopping around for a different option. Their "ways to earn" mPerks has gotten to a point where I would have to buy things that I would never likely purchase for any other reason than for their mPerk points and that isn't even worth the gas discount, because it costs more to GET the perks than it's worth to use them. I also can't understand why they have such a problem with getting shopping carts that roll straight or won't take out your shins when that stupid theft device fails (and they always do). I hate that Meijer so much, because I still find myself going there simply because it's close. But I wish, every time I go, that it would get hit by a meteor and get replaced with a Walmart.

    My daughter is eight months. She weighs no more than about 28 pounds and in the women's bathroom…read morethe kids changing table the seatbelt is broken. It was absolutely filthy. I had to scrub it multiple times. It was wobbly and I had to hold my daughter in place while changing her because of the size.
