The lights on their sign are almost all burned out.
Knickers Brown X.

I remember when this place had quality brands like Source Naturals. Now it is turning into what GNC was back when there was a GNC. GNC went out of business because they only sold trashy supplements and I have a feeling that this dump is on the same way down; it will probably close permanently. The cashiers were talking to themselves about how more than one of the customers were being a*holes (they really used that word.) Guess what, if your customers hate on you it's because you are the problem. The lights in the sign are almost all burned out. Losers can't afford to keep their property up.

I can't say enough about this place. For starters the staff is very helpful and know their products. And the prices are pretty fair.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I bought a bunch of vitamins and self care in the discount shelf. I…read moredidn't specifically go there to look at that shelf... but that is where I ended up getting things to buy. Originally, we went there to pick up B12 vitamins in the lowest mcg for my dad because his doctor said 1,000 mcg was too much for him. Most places I looked had 1,000 and above. We found the right kind of vitamins here. The price was decent. When we first walked in the lady working at the counter looked soooo ready to go home. They must have had a shift change in between because I eventually saw her huffing walking towards an employee only room and then huffing on the way out. She clearly was in a huff. On the plus side, the girl who checked us out was nice. I liked her! Now back to these discount items! I ended up purchasing two Dr. Bronner's bar soaps, two African black soap deodorant, Mega Food daily vitamin, two Mega Food Elderberry immune support gummies, and a plant based rest and repair nighttime power you add to water. The discount ranged from 25-75% off! The store has so many choices of vitamins that it is very overwhelming unless you know exactly what you are going there for. The prices are high compared to other places that I would pick up my vitamins (ie Costco, Amazon, Target, CVS). The location is a tad out of the way to just pick up vitamins, but I'm glad I stopped in for those discount items which BTW all expires late 2022.

I am not sure why I still patronage this location. I only occasionally visit this store when I need…read moresomething right away. They rarely have everything I need. The store is clean but the staff member that I have encountered the last two times that I stopped by this location is not friendly. She was very chatty with the person before me but somewhat acerbic in tone when assisting me. Instead of roaming around the store aimlessly, I thought it would be easier to request assistance. I am not sure if that was an issue but it appeared that way. I will stick with online purchases or visit another location.

The moment my girls and I entered the facility we were greeted right away. I noticed right away…read morethis place was very well kept and clean! I can smell the cleaning products which is great to know. The smoothies we got were delicious! I definitely recommend this place! The two gentlemen working this morning 8/23 9:50am were so kind and working hard but also enjoying each other company which is great to see. I will be back with my husband this time so he can experience the amazing drinks. The açaí bowl was delicious as well! My picky daughter ate that thing so quick. (Even with fruit she's picky)

I have a question for the manager. What is the point of online ordering if you don't start the…read moreorder until the customer arrives? When I arrived there was one person behind the counter but it turned out that there were two other employees in the back and no other customers. So the one employee started my order but then some other customer came in so he stopped and waited on them. That is when the second employee made her appearance but couldn't be bothered to get off her phone so she continued making my order holding her phone with her shoulder and at one point she went back into the back room. The original employee looked confused and apparently started making the new order while the phone girl was in the back. Mind you, I had ordered 15 minutes before I arrived. So the phone girl came out from the back-phone in hand-eventually on her shoulder added some ingredients then put my order on the blender. So, again I ask - what is the point of ordering with the app if you don't attempt to make it before the customer arrives? Also, why are your employees aloud to be on their phone while serving your customers?

The 5 stars are for Dr. Roye Evans, my amazing acupuncturist. If I could give 10 stars…read more I would! Where do I begin? Dr. Evans' calm, patient, and caring demeanor is what practitioners and service professionals should demonstrate but she is a rare gem. In the wake of my current life: stress from work, grad school, dealing with side effects from cancer treatment and the loss of my only sweet child, Dr. Roye Evans treatment couldn't have come at a more critical time in my life. I'm truly grateful for her approach to care and the time she dedicates to my session as if I'm her only patient. She asks the deep questions that I can only process in my mind such as have you been creating? How is your sleep and how is your dreaming? Questions and concerns that many won't ask....if I could have a Dr. Roye in my life for all of my health providers I would be in the best shape of my life. Thank you for your care Dr. Roye. I literally have to take off work just to get on her calendar but it's all worth it!!!! She made recommendations for my Healthcare needs and I can't wait to try them!! If my son had this care when he was living..he might still be alive today!

I am so glad I was able to try PEMF therapy at Crossroads Apothecary. After my first session I felt…read morelike I floated out of the therapy room and proceeded to have one of the best nights sleep I have had in years. Lynn is very accommodating and goes out of her way to make sure all her patients are taken care of.

It's easy to get Amazon packages at Whole Foods, Columbia MD…read more Here's the 3rd episode of my new use of Amazon Lockers to get deliveries :-). Whole Foods it's a little bit off my regular path. But there's some advantages. The parking lot is huge, and busy enough that you don't have to wait long for an upfront space if you need that. The store has long hours. But best of all, they give you more than a week to get your package. So far the other lockers say they will send a package back after three days! If you can park near the left-hand doors when facing the store, you just had almost all the way back, turning left in front of the in-store pizza stand. On your left will be a small counter staffed counter. The Amazon app will pull up all your deliveries on the orders tab. The staff scans the barcodes from the app, and you're good to go. Easy Peasy! By the way, there's a cute bear-and-cubs sculpture out front, from the 1969 30th anniversary of the Rouse Corp! The artist, Beniamino Bufano, has more climbable touchable stone animal sculptures on the Baltimore campus of Johns Hopkins University.

Typical Whole Foods experience. Thankfully, several of the items I needed were on sale with Prime…read moretoday! Customer service was great. I needed help finding an item and someone walked me over to the right spot. The item wasn't stocked , so she went to the back to check and came back with a whole box to fill the shelf! I also received wonderful customer service from the young guy at the register.
