The McDaniel's Gourmet Blend;Old World Classic great coffee, has been replaced by a stinkier Classic Roast 100% Arabica Ground Coffee.My waste basket smells better then this and probably tastes better.Save A Lot you can do much better then that!This coffee leaves a taste of sharp chedder cheese in my mouth and throat for hours.The oder it gives off whilst brewing is simmular to a waste recycling center.As well as that, it leaves my stomach in an unsettled way.I'd say It's about the worst coffee I've had for awhile. Go back to the OLd World Classic.

On 07-27-23 I went to buy some tomatoes and was charged extra. When I tried to explain the price that was shown by the product I was completely ignored and brushed off.

This is the second Watermelon I have bought from Save A Lot New Martinsville WV location that has been bad. The last one I just threw out. I have also bought dairy products in the past that have been out dated and bad. Save A Lot used to be my first choice for shopping. In the past year I have gotten so many bad products.

On 4/17/2023 I shopped at the store. Number #8034. I have reported the parking lot has huge pot holes and that most of the lights for the parking lot do not work. It makes for a very unsafe shopping experience. I have spoken to the Manger and they don't have the authority to fix anything.

I had an assistant manager pulled the merchandise from my hands that I intended to purchase, and was escorted out of the store by it's security personnel. Her action was a retaliation, towards me, for volunteering to pay for another customer purchases, who was short on cash to complete their purchase.

Please bring back the McDaniels iced mocha coffee! I've tried other similar products and none of them compare to the quality and taste. Your iced coffee was an awesome product...we find it difficult to understand why it is no longer available?

The meat is frozen when you buy it(chicken).I have also had to return spoiled meat. The frozen foods are falling apart and molded. I had also informed to different managers.

Bought 3 boxes of the French vanilla for 3 different houses and they all either fall apart in the coffee maker or the top doesn't puncture causing coffee flakes and hot water to fill the cup. Wasted many cups of coffee. Very frustrating. Am i the only one who experienced this issue?

You have changed ingredients from original it is not nearly as good please go back to original Marcum Soul Seasonings. I use this seasonings 9n everything but the new ingredients don't do the justice. The flavor is dull and not exciting at all. So it 7s very necessary to get it back as before., ...

Been a meat cutter for gerritys for a long time. Your meat Dept is terrible, especially cause don't have good variety. If I wasn't on disability and could get paid under the table I could turn that meat Dept around. John pisena was my meat manager now supervisor for gerritys. Wish I took the job

Is this the quailty that you give to your customers when they spend money shopping at Save A Lot Stores? Because this is unacceptable 😡 and this is a package of hamburger patties that your store sells to people.

Today one your long term employees, Judy, was very rude and made a very racist statement regarding paying customers. Today was just one of the many times that I have heard her make rude, nasty, and blatantly racist statements. There was also a child under working age ringing up customer's purchases. She was the child of one of the other employees.

It is a very frustrating, and extremely frequent occurrence. It makes one not want to visit this location at all. I work very close so I visit often, and each time I come there is only 1 line open while other employees by pass by. It is a very slow pace for a supermarket, and would greatly benefit from more hires, and new staff .

The wife and I love your store and workers. We buy 90% of our groceries there.
The problem is the dirty bath rooms. The store is clean but the Bathrooms yuc!
there are many retired customers using this store, we are in the 80's.

We find this a problem in this area. Please clean up this problem.

Thanks ! Don and Hannelore

The bread sticks do not have enough cheese in them. I am very disappointed. I thought it was going to be the same as the picture on the box. Please make them with more cheese. Thank you.

While eating a fish wedges, which I normally love, I got a two inch fish bone in my wedge and was worried there were more and couldn't finish it. We usually love the quality and price but this puts a damper on eating them now which is tough for me as I stick to chicken and seafood.

Hi. On Saturday, June 15, around 8:20 p.m., visit the Leesburg store, fl. Somewhat surprised when I saw one of the meat refrigerators and one of the refrigerators of the ince cream in one aspect, not pleasant for the customers (disorganized and with ice frost). I show you what I saw, so they can correct it.

Thank you,
