Coincidentally, had some good discussions about grocery stores with various friends on FB messenger…read morethis afternoon & next in alphabet series representing 2024 is W is for Weis Markets. For W, this is my 2nd Yelp review in this current alphabet series. See my 3-star Wegmans Columbia review I wrote recently. 2024 was year I went to Weis most frequently, but I've still occasionally go here maybe twice in 2026 so far. In 2024 Weis was my most frequent grocery store, but I was less likely to come here over time as I had some issues with this location. All Saints Road location is pretty similar on severity of my issues with them, but I'm far more likely to go to US 1 location as generally more convenient. Since living in Russett in western Anne Arundel County, in 2021-2023 I was going to my local Shoppers most often as well as Aldi. I never particularly liked Shoppers but it was convenience of proximity. By 2025 I realized Wal-Mart near me was pretty good in some aspects for groceries even though they've annoyed me at times too, but they are still superior to Shoppers. From July 2023 to July 2024, I had free Wendy's for a year for going to a grand remodel opening of a location in Columbia, & my closest Wendy's is across street on Gorman from Weis. So, I'd get lunch at Wendy's then do grocery shopping at Weis more often starting in late 2023. My Weis business further increased after New Year 2024 when Anne Arundel Co government banned plastic bags all together, which I thought was ridiculous, so for a long time I boycotted going to grocery stores in AA (as well as PG Co) & would drive across county line to Howard Co & did almost all my grocery business with them. Howard charges 5 cents for plastic bag, & I still bring my reusable bags as I don't want to pay a nickel for a plastic bag. I just didn't like AA County banned them all together. I made an exception for my local Maryland City Aldi as no bags was their private company's policy, but it wasn't county government forcing customers & businesses to change their ways. By 2025, I eased up on my AA County grocery boycott as my opinion of Weis cooled off, it was a lot further to next closest store in Howard & more convenient to give Wal-Mart a try less than a mile from my home & Weis is about 3.5 miles each way. Shopping experience fairly easy, not too stressful. Produce variety was pretty good, & it was generally fresh but not perfect either. A good variety of meats. My biggest complaint was seafood at Weis. It was pretty lacking in terms of variety. In 2024 I had a big complaint with their pricing of salmon. So I don't recall exact pricing of salmon per pound, but let's say it was $10.99/lb. They'd have huge 1.5-2 pounds. I'd just want like 3/4 of lb, which would be about $8.75 total, but they wouldn't have anything close to this size. So, they would have these precut salmon, which were 2 5 oz cuts or 10 oz total. It was a bit short of 12 oz, but I might've accepted for convenience. However, price was a flat $10. I said price is $10.99/lb, & this is $16/lb (which is absolutely ridiculous more than most expensive Whole Foods, which I believe was a ripoff $14.99/lb there). Rude woman working for seafood said prices were set the way they were. I had her cut about 3/4 lbs or so & weigh. We did that dance on a few occasions. She'd complain about doing her job saying it was tough to get measurement right. A couple of times there was no one even around to help me. I think I just conceded I wasn't going to get any seafood, & I'd just get beef/other meats, but I really shouldn't have to do concede on what I'm eating. One time I asked to speak with manager about this. He was relatively nice & empathetic, & seafood area got a little better. I didn't think salmon was always fresh, kind of slimy. I have better luck at my local Aldi or Wal-Mart for quality of salmon. One time I was trying to take something back for a refund in May 2025. I often look at food expiration before I buy. I had bought turkey bacon from Weis maybe a few days earlier, & I was pissed as I realized expiration date was day BEFORE I bought. I bought on Sunday, May 4, 2025, & it expired May 3. This was obviously unacceptable. So, finally on Thursday, May 15 I got around to taking about this expired turkey bacon with my receipt. Manager let me exchange w/ other turkey bacon. I acknowledged I normally check expirations but happened to have not check, but was annoyed Weis had expired food there in 1st place. I requested for inconvenience of me driving 3.5 miles, 10 minutes each way to give like gift card for their fault of expired food. He said they stopped giving gift cards for things. So once again annoyed. Few times I went it was just self checkout, no checkout people, which I don't like. They said last hour or 2, but I don't like all self checkout. 3/18 Update: Salmon actually 10 oz $12, not $10. $10.99/lb is normal price. See pics.
