Walmart Saint Albans could be a great store. But for all of the space available, the check out…read morestations installed, the huge parking lot, the number of workers on shift it just can't seem to pull it off. Here's my theory: 1. They have maybe 10-20 checkout stations here. I barely see 4 open at any given time! This seems inefficient and just plain dumb. 2. It's a huge store but boy they sure had no clue how to organize it. It's a disaster of departments bleeding into other departments, customer service locations built for inventory or places for the staff to chat. A place this big, you'd think they'd have some quick map or locator...nope. Most departments are full of nothing I'm looking for and if they have it I have to wade through piles of disorganized stuff to find it! 3. No problem getting a parking space but no one seemed to clearly mark the aisle direction for the angled parking they installed. So I'm dodging cars and shoppers everywhere. It also doesn't help that the ingress and egress from the lot are snaked all over in 5 directions so good luck finding a quick way in and out of there without an accident. 4. I like seeing staff on the floor. But I'll add that just having staff out on the floor isn't enough. How about more staff WILLING TO HELP? They seem to staff this store with more unhappy workers who seem to be aimlessly milling about doing something (anything) other than helping customers. There are a couple places and times where I've seen real outgoing help here (electronics has someone on staff who really wants to help. Other than that, forget it, you're on your own here. Let me also add that the in-store Subway is a waste. Unfriendly workers, half of the time they are out of certain meats or breads and it just doesn't live up to the consistent standards of most franchises I've been to. It's such an afterthought adder. They'd do better with a Dunkin Donuts or McD's. I really don't like shopping here if I don't have to. Sure the prices are fairly competitive when I can find what I want. But the struggle to park, get my way around the store and customers who prefer to slowly block aisles or chat with staff, then have to find an open check out is just too much to make it worth my while most times.

While traveling through Saint Albans we needed to grab some windshield wipers as well as a few…read moreother toiletries, so we decided to stop in at this Walmart. This particular location has everything you need from a Walmart including an excessive collection of camouflage attire. The staff here was very polite and overall the store was well stocked, clean and organized. In the end, we found everything we needed and walked out in under ten minutes.

Both the Williston and St Albans stores are loaded with unhappy employees who are rude, and invite…read morerudeness from customers. Walmart shopping is not a classy experience. But it's better than shopping at Costco! At least you're not rounded up like cattle and have to PAY to shop there. Heck, a lot of stuff from Costco is cheaper at Walmart! But the thing is, despite being an honest way to make a buck (I won't call it "a living"), people look down on these WallyWorld workers. Even washing dishes is respectable because it's HONEST work. I empathize with the employees, not the rotten operation Walmart runs. My low rating is for WalMart, the Bentonville, AR-based retailer. I'd never be motivated to do my best at any big-box store. I'd just do the minimum to not get fired... LOL, they lock up underwear at the Williston store! :-) "Please sir, can you get those size XXXL panties out of the showcase for me?"

The Worst! I have had a number of bad experiences here but haven't reviewed before. I asked for…read morehelp finding a price since the shelf tag didn't match the item I was looking at. The employee responded in a very rude manner "I don't have a price gun." and walked away. When I asked other employees for help, I had several just look at me and then turn around and ignore me. Today I was buying moving supplies. After having purchased two armloads of boxes and tape, I asked if I could have two (2 mind you) empty boxes that were sitting empty from employee stocking. They very rudely refused and said they had to recycle them, but they could sell me boxes. I said I had already purchased a number of boxes and tape, and was just hoping to get the couple empty ones sitting there in the store that were just going to be thrown out. No, they said, they wouldn't give me any for free. Extremely rude people. Will not return now. This was the end.

The pharmacy is poorly run, with fast talking, slow walking clerks who clearly demonstrate a belief…read morethat interrupting, lecturing or speaking over someone so they are unable to get word in edgewise is a desirable skill set...hint; it's not. Add a generally unresponsive yet somehow arrogantly aloof attitude displayed by the pharmacist, hiding behind her computer monitor and the area is a perfect representation of a poorly run department...truly underwhelming and pathetic. The rest of the store ought to be embarrassed by the pharmacy.

Where are the Adults at the Price Chopper Supermarket in St Albans? The only people I see working…read morein the front of the store are children and not very bright children at that. At each and every supermarket if the cashier makes a mistake and over charges you not only get to keep your purchase but you get a complete refund. So is Price Chopper different from the rest of grocery stores? I think not. They just have no adult management. I bought a single bottle of beer. The cashier charged me based on a $10.99/6 pack. But the 6 pack was only $9.99 so instead of refunding me the $1.84+tax they wanted to just refund me 18 cents. Having worked in a supermarket as a cashier and as a manager in several supermarket corporate offices and I have shopped in supermarkets in many states this is not the way things are done. Not at all. But the worst was Alex who can't add/subtract or read. OMG! And one last thing did you realize at Price Chopper they charge you for getting cash back on your debit card? Except for the fact the cashier forgets to tell you beforehand. So ca anyone tell me of another market in St Albans even 15-20 miles away so I don't have to deal with children who can't read or do basic math? Please advise. Thanks! UPDATE... I found Hannaford Supermarket a little further down the street. They sell the same 6 pack for $8.99.

Food City - Such a rude and inconsiderate display of discrimination and stereotyping of the homeless or those who are struggling financially.

Food City is a bit like your local neighborhood grocer. Granted, it is part of a chain but it's…read morenot one of your full-service, giant box grocery with a department counter service for seafood, bakery, meats, built in pharmacy, kids play area, cigar club, swimming pool, VIP lounge...you get the idea. It's pretty much just groceries. Sure it has the typical layout of produce, meats, a deli counter, freezers, household items, but at a smaller scale. Plenty of great parking as it is part of a small strip mall. It's not a busy area as it is a mainly residential part of town. I've always found the service to be speedy and friendly. There is the odd occasion where maybe cashiers don't say much or the deli counter isn't all smiles but I never felt treated rudely and there was always someone there willing to help. So, in some ways it does have a bit of small town appeal. They don't carry a wide variety of items but I can always depend on getting staples or last minute needs here. Prices aren't too bad either. Deli is typically great but the baked items like cakes are either of small selection or have been in the fridge too long. But overall: the meats, the cheeses, the produce and even the selection of Vermont maple items (they sell maple pepper which we use in EVERYTHING) are just perfect by my standards. Keep doing what you're doing Food City. I'll keep going to you.

The staff here are mostly terrible and rude. There a a few nice people, but mostly the store…read moremanager Aaron is a mean, arrogant, discriminatory jerk. The are constantly treating customers as if they are all stealing, and they always put rude signs in the windows. Not to mention that their location suggests convenience, but they are charging the highest prices in town and I feel like it is taking advantage of those who are on EBT by charging such high prices. A lot of people here don't have cars or transportation and are stuck hemorrhaging their EBT funds on high prices because they have no other choice. Their meat department is a joke and people are constantly dealing with spoiled meat. If you can get to Hannaford or Market 32 in Saint Albans, go to those places. Friendlier staff, better prices and non spoiled meat. I have included a recent photo of a rude sign that reads "if you plan on shoplifting let us know." This just feels like discriminatory practices against people who are on EBT and SNAP or homeless. This store seems to hate homeless and poor people.
