This is the best grocery store in the cities -- by far…read more We moved from California. Grocery Outlet is a large chain in California that is similar to Mike's -- they're a discount opportunistic grocery that sells items close to expiration/are being discontinued. When we moved back to Minnesota, we were very sad to not have Grocery Outlet anymore. But then, we found Mike's. Mike's is amazing. I'd argue it's even better than Grocery Outlet, and miles above any average grocery store in the cities. The primary draw to Mike's is the pricing -- things are very cheap compared to other grocers. This is possible because they don't have a broad selection and stock items that are close to expiration or being discontinued. It's not uncommon to find things that didn't sell at other stores here. The downside is that they rarely have consistent stock. However, if you have an open mind, you won't be disappointed. There are snacks, frozen items, household goods and even clothes that are very cheap. Lastly, the staff are all very kind and do their best to help. Go here!!!!

There's a good variety of used and new items, along with various categories of goods.... big and small. Pricing varies as well, but you can bet your paying less than retail price.

I will say, staff didn't seem warm and friendly (ie a smile, or offer to help), but at the same no one was directly rude. I gather if you ask for help, they'd assist. I noticed by the bed frames, a sign that said they have tools to disassemble, but you had to do it yourself, which is still helpful since some places wouldn't even offer that.

Feels so chaotic shopping here, definitely can't stay too long. I feel like I should take a star back for the checkout process. It was VERY slow. When we walked up there was 2 staff assisting customers one of the cashiers was on his phone a bit and once the process with the customer completed he walked away even though there were at least 7 parties waiting in line and that left 1 cashier and they were moving slow with each customer. I feel like she should have called for backup or someone should have but seemed like they just didn't care. Eventually someone else did come up and helped the cashier with her current customer before helping move the line along. Overall we waited about 15 min in line. I got a new movie blanket (a blanket that I can use when I go to the movie theaters), decent quality & a reasonable price.

Extremely rude and highly unprofessional employees. Before i bought my costume i asked the employee…read moreat the register what is their return policy and in return he said "you can return any item until 7:30 today" and so i said "okay cool"-then preceding to buy my costume. I then go home and realize that it's the wrong costume, so i drive back (mind you, within the same hour) and ask if i can get a refund because a worker earlier had told me i could. What i got back was a woman yelling in my face and rolling her eyes at me saying "no you can't" and "why are coustmers so dumb" and all sorts of snarky little comments. I then ask if i can speak to her manager in which her response was "no" and when asked why, all she says is "i don't know where she is". I then decide to let her calm down and walk around a bit and come back when there is another level headed employee. I came back about 5-10 minutes later to find the same employee who earlier told me i can return as long as it's before 7:30. I then tell him that i would like to return an item. He then says "uhhhh, no i can't do that" in which my response was "you told me less than 2 hours ago that i could." And he says back, "i don't remember seeing you here". At this moment i ask him where the manager is, and his response is "My manager isn't here", so i ask him "when is your manager in?" And he replies "I'm not going to tell you, leave before i call security". And once again the same girl from earlier sees me and says "ugh, what is he doing here still". Upon hearing this, i was offended. How dare you, an employee who promises a customer that they can return an item, threaten to call security on a paying customer? Furthermore, you wouldn't even let me see your manager and talk this out. At this point there is no reason for me to want the return, but the fact that the employees here treated me like this is OUTRAGEOUS. I'll probably be back tomorrow once again to talk this out, but at this point there is no point in coming back. 100% DO NOT GO HERE, unless you want to be treated like a piece of meat walking around paying money.

I don't like her at all. Today a situation happened where my friends phone was stolen and as I was calling it one of the workers happened to pull something out of their pocket and look at it then looked directly towards me as he put whatever it was back in his pocket, so it looked really suspicious so I go find the manager and I explain to him what happened and I told him I don't want to accuse anyone but the situation was weird so I asked him if he could have his employee empty his pockets and then crabby mean lordis wanted to kick me out of the store which I thought was bogus because I didn't want to accuse anyone but the kids actions were suspicious. I just wanted to make sure, so I kept shopping and a while later the manager comes up to me apparently they were still whining and complaining about me asking to see what was in the kids pockets and they asked me to leave. I don't have a ride I was waiting for them and it's really cold outside so because they were being babies and that lady lordis really sucks I have to sit in the cold and wait for my ride. She's always a not so nice person I know I would never work for a crab like that. She's really needs to find a different job. I highly doubt any of the employees like her. Even her face is rude looking. Savers sucks and they are a rip off. They can close for all I care. So at the salvation army. They are way better.

I also grabbed some baby aspirin to have on hand for my flock if needed and was able to find their vegan meat frozen section after some looking. I stocked up on some favorites since their prices were so good. I'll definitely be back! I did self checkout and the greeter was kind when I left. Easy to find most items and this location wasn't crazy busy like others I've been to, easy to find parking and get in and out.
