Save-A-Hoe
Well, that's what you might as well do!! You ain't getting any bargain while shopping here.
I must admit. I've been here two or three times to grab some groceries and even tried to find over the counter meds since the fam was sick and this is one of the closest places to me that MAY have that sorta thing (wrong). Not big deal on the drugs, but as far being a grocer, they aren't very good at it.
My main gripe is the produce. Where do they get them from?? Being priced SLIGHTLY under your normal Albertsons or Soopers, you'd think the quality should be somewhat up to par with the big guys. Boy was I wrong! Most everything I purchased reached their expiration within two days of walking out the market door. Cucumbers were slimey after 2 days, cilantro turned brown, tomatoes were mush... you get the picture. Sure, that's what veggies do BUT after 2 to 3 days after you bought the darn things?? I may as well have spend the extra five or ten cents for fresher produce AND they give me free plastic bags to take them home in. Yes, I am a green advocate and charging per bag is all good with me... but the fact that their selections seem like they already received them @ a discounted rate and only gave us a few pennies off of the price hardly seems worthy of charging me some more for a plastic bag. Maybe thats just me!
Anyway, their packaged goods are just dandy though they may also be a little dated on items that don't sell too often. I grabbed some spices and some where already compressed and chunky. They also don't have a large array of item to choose from, but I'm sure it gets the job done for those non-picky buyers. They also sell pan dulce for 70 cents a pop. Man, that's crazy to me since I'm use to getting 4 for a dollar back home in Cali. Ya'll know what's up!!! LOL! My most recent visit was the last draw and I now refuse to come back. I'll spend my money elsewhere because I hate throwing away food that I JUST bought and thats exactly what I was doing with the items I got here. SMH. Sorry to say it!! =( read more
