And always at this store, ultra helpful and friendly sales staff. Top notch customer service! Some of the best of any retailer in the area. Not to mention, well laid out aisle ways that make shopping access easy for everyone. Located in the Cascade Village Shopping Center, there is alsoample parking in the large lot. Sounds like I like it so why not a big fan of these huge import store formats? Because I think about whether the workers in some of the countries of origin are being fairly compensated and working in decent conditions (China, Laos, Nigeria as example). Also I am concerned that the "it's so inexpensive you can throw it away after one season" fuels consumer behavior that overhwelms landfills and uses up natural resources at an alarming rate. So I typically limit my purchases here to those things that my conscience lets me buy - the domestic food products, the more durable goods with countries of origin that make me more comfortable about working condtions. Everything is connected to everything else - andt that's what holds me back from four stars.

I wanted to like this place so bad here in bend but it's just not possible. Gave it 3 attempts…read morethroughout the year with months in between going in. 1st attempt I had someone follow me around the store didn't leave with anything because it was obvious I was being monitored. 2nd attempt I found items I actually wanted to buy but didn't but then due to being monitored again so I left them, 3rd attempt I was monitoring again so I sat down on a couch just to test it out and sure enough the staff was watching and this time it was multiple so I left my items and walked out. Security actually came out a little after I left and he did a perimeter walk and that was my final attempt and the world market here in bend. Thought Redmond was like this, guess I was wrong...

We stopped at Safeway to learn about no hard alcohol at Safeway. I was ready for some Bourbon and I can't even express the ridiculous lengths and back and forth backtracking that it took to get.
