This store is more than just a place to shop – it's a place where they do things right. The space is welcoming, clean, well stocked and the staff are fantastic. They truly care. I misplaced my ID and credit cards and was incredibly stressed. Turns out I had forgotten them 3 days prior at one of their registers. I was enormously relived to find them at the service desk. The way this store (and possibly the customer who saw my cards) handled it speaks volumes about their honesty and the kind of community they foster. Every store should take a page from their book!
Prices can be a bit higher compared to other grocery stores within driving distance. The use of paper bags at checkout is great, but they're overfilled, sometimes making them a rip hazard when you get home. Forget using your cellphone in there, too. So far, my produce has always been fresh, though.
Shaws is nice and they have a huge selection. The lot is well lit, snow is well managed and relatively flat. Easy to get on and off 119, especially if you need to pick something up on your way to work and traveling eastbound. Traffic moves fast in the area especially on the side streets. The Shaw's app is good but shop early in most sales to get the best deals.
I guess I have to drive 20 minutes or so to a Market Basket because I’m tired of minding my business and being bothered. Alfie’s never been a problem, anywhere!
Barbara should probably be more concerned with how she’s ever going to retire than with my one-eyed elderly emotional support dog battling glaucoma taking a nap on his blanket in the cart. God forbid I have to go out and get groceries without him and both of us have a panic attack over something very preventable because all of a sudden people want to start upholding rules and regulations within a corporation and country that couldn’t careless about them or their livelihood. Nevertheless, I’m certain that those shopping carts have come in contact with worse things.
And since she’s so worried about being fined by the Board of Health, I’ll be sure to let them and every other regulatory agency know about all the other rules being broken.
It’s really sad that this is what the world has come to, like there are not bigger things to worry about. Anyway, I’ll be praying for all the Barbara’s out there.
Love their app. Store is always so clean and organized. I can always find fresh produce.
My cashier Nathan was very professional, and careful bagging my groceries. Thank you Nathan.
