I also look forward to their heirloom pumpkin options each fall. Located in Porters Vale, there is plenty of parking and lighting in the evening. This store is super ginormous, encompassing more than just groceries - Meijer offers clothing, shoes, garden supplies and gasoline. The employees are extremely patient and helpful. In addition, they are open to requests to include offerings from local businesses. This is my new Meijer.

The flowers here last a while, I can confirm, and they have a great selection of press on nails I recently discovered. I also like stopping and filling my car up with gas at their gas station, their pumps work great.

If you are looking for beautiful floral arrangements or bouquets & or…read more Boutonnières look no further! Seriously, Tracey is amazing. One of my daughters friends ordered flowers from a local floral shop & when she got the bouquet home she noticed the flowers were in horrible condition and some of the flowers looked brown & wilted. They closed early & weren't about to help. I took them to Stracks on calumet for her, while she was getting her hair done. Even though Tracey had a full day due to Valparaiso's homecoming, she asked us to come back in a half an hour and promised to fix them. She did more than that! They looked absolutely beautiful she refreshed them, rearrange them and even added some gold accents! The bouquet was truly beautiful! And she honestly saved the day!

I was at the register approximately 10 - 12 feet from the desk. So, with several customers behind me waiting, I walked up to the desk. When I was finally acknowledged- no one else was waiting, she said- "Look behind-someone came over." This was while ice cream was melting and a long lane of customers was waiting. It was ridiculous and ignorant. This shouldn't happen. Cashier was excellent and apologized when NOTHING was his fault.

You people who "praise" T and C, MUST have something wrong with you! Especially since the recent…read moretakeover. Their prices are outrageous. Big deal, they run a few products at a sale price. That's just a game they play with us. That makes people think their overall prices are good. They'll run a few good deals to get you into the store and then they hose you on the rest of the items. Remember, you have to bag your own groceries too. They have little price signs everywhere, "supposedly" showing the regular price, versus the "new" price. Are you kidding me? Did you ever look at those tags? Then they show "their" price on the tag. They have raised prices dramatically, since the new company took over. They're making a complete fool of you, if you think they haven't raised them. They're fooling you BIG TIME. Here's a perfect example. They hung a sign from the ceiling in the meat department that said: "Lower prices on thousands of items. Ground beef $7.18 for a pound.....a POUND! Does that sound like a "low" price to you? Plus, it comes in a tube. You have no idea what you're getting, because you can't see the meat. Here's another one. Chuck roast for $9.98 a pound. Does sound like a "bargain" to you? I could go on and on, how they're playing games with us customers. But you're getting railroaded folks. They put in a new floor, dressed some things up and shoppers think they're getting a great deal. Some of you really need to wake up. But that's ok, keep shopping there and fritter your money away. It's only "money," right? SMH.

I don't feel as rushed with self checkout. Today I didn't have room on the scale for my last item. I scanned it and then just stuck it back in my cart. No alarms went off and the system still let me proceed to payment unhindered. There's a huge Christmas vibe right now. Lots of decor for reasonable prices. I picked up a nice "Joy" sign for my front porch for $8.99. Unless you're hitting up thrift stores, you won't beat this price until the after-season sales begin.

My favorite here are the pita chips and cheeses for charcuterie, avocados and organic bananas. They have an extensive wine and chocolate section too. You can always find some sort of goodie in the limited section as they are always rotating items. I just picked up a Christmas scented candle -- if you see something you like make sure to get it because they may not have it again if it's an annual offering.

This Walmart has a reputation of being much better than the one in Merrillville and I'm pleased to…read moreinform you this rumor is true. The parking is plentiful, the store is clean, well organized and sufficiently staffed based on my visit last week (less than 40 minutes). Used self checkout with little issues except I could not scan an item but there promptly was someone there to help me. I enjoyed our experience and will definitely be returning to this location because my Target experiences have left much to be desired since moving to Indiana. I never thought I would say this, but Walmart, I think you may have Catherine P. back as a customer because of this location and the location in Huntley, Illinois. Other than those two locations, I haven't found any others which can hold a candle to these particular two spots and thats ok because I found this one!
