“The old man is talking again.
He has three things on the belt. Bread. Eggs. A can of soup. He stands close to the counter like it’s cold behind him. The clerk scans slowly. He doesn’t notice. Or maybe he does and doesn’t care.
He tells her the tomatoes aren’t what they used to be. Says they used to split open in the sun. Says they smelled like something. She nods. She says, “Yeah,” the way people do when they don’t know what else to say.
I look at my watch. I don’t need to. I just want to feel the weight of time in my hand.
There are four people behind me now. No one speaks. We all breathe a little louder than we need to.
The old man laughs. It’s not a big laugh. It’s dry. He says his wife used to make soup with bones and scraps. “Best you ever had,” he says. Then he adds, “She’s gone now.”
The clerk’s face changes. Just a little. She says she’s sorry. He shrugs. Like it’s weather.
I shift my feet. I think about dinner at home. The light from the television. The quiet. It will not be so different from his quiet. I don’t like that thought.
He asks her what she’s studying. She says business. He says that’s good. Says the world always needs people who understand money.
The machine beeps. The receipt prints.
He folds it slow. Puts it in his wallet like it matters.
He thanks her. Says her name. He must have read it off the tag. No one does that anymore.
He pushes his cart away.
Now it’s me.
The clerk looks at me. “How are you?”
I almost say fine. I almost end it there.
Instead I say, “Long shift?”
She nods. “Yeah.”
I nod back. That’s all.
The line moves again.”
“I do enjoy this store and I can find some decently priced items, but this store unfortunately isn't one where I can buy all of my groceries from. Great for meat, some frozen foods, milk and eggs. I wish their canned vegetables and fruit aisle was bigger, but if you want to stock up for emergencies, then buying some here would help you. Also come with a quarter, because you need to put one in for the grocery cart. I can understand their reasoning behind it, but I have forgotten when I've come here before. The staff isn't always the most friendly, some even look at you like you are in the way, but that's not my issue, so that's what they need to deal with when it comes to customers. Also whenever I come here, there is usually only one cashier open, it makes me feel like they are trying to push their customers to use the self checkout (which I hate with the fire of a thousand suns), so I patiently wait for the cashier to be done with the other customers. The upside i like to this store, is that I can bag my own groceries, because they have a section you can push your cart to and bag your food to your specifications. Where sometimes at a different grocery store, a bagger won't do the job well and I have smooshed bread or sushi that is messed up. So this is great for me (for you lazy people this would be a downside ).”
“Once you have visited England, there are few memories as powerful as the food you enjoyed. Sadly these memories are almost impossible to recreate once you're back home as many products are very hard to locate outside the U.K.. Except they're not! Get yourself right on down to The British Connection! From Branston Pickle to Violet Crumble to Hob Nobs to Maynards Liquorice Allsorts to Sticky Toffee - it's all there! You won't break the bank, and the folks are super nice. Tell them Don send you!”
“I live in the neighborhood, so I've been shopping there for about 18 years, and the staff are all very kind. I've never been treated badly. I hope it stays that way forever.”
“I accidentally chose this location for a return. I only came in to drop off my return. From what I saw, the store was very nice and clean. All the items on the shelf were faced like someone with OCD was in charge of stocking the shelf. It had a weird vibe to it though, the people in there seem very monotonous and robotic. I'll be back on the next accidental return.”

“A small yet, with varieties of Persian, Russian and Middle East products, grocery store. Free parking is in the rear. Both vegetarian including fruits and vegetables, and non vegetarian products are available in clean store. Products are fresh. The staff is helpful and friendly, answering the questions humbly. The prices are very reasonable . A wide range of the bakery items , fresh, is the reason for visiting the store.”
“The Grocery Outlet is located at 2515 Torrance Blvd. and Crenshaw, in the city of Torrance. The store is brand new, all shelves stocked and it has plenty of parking.
The store has a modest produce section, everything fresh.
Prices are good, and they also have specialty items you wouldn't find at other stores.
Hope this is helpful. Blessings.”

“Wonderful place to get mediterranean, Arabic or Indian items. The gentleman working was a great help. He wasn’t pushy but was very helpful. I thought I knew what o was doing getting what I needed. The gentleman took the time to explain to me what I was missing. He came from behind the counter to actually show me he didnt just give me instructions where to look or details where to find an item he got out of his chair from behind the counter and was very nice showing me where the item i was looking for located and even broke down details to other options that were both more expensive and cheaper.
They sell vegetables, deli meats, sweets, pastries and make inexpensive delicious hearty sandwiches.”
“Had a really great experience at Smart & Final Extra!. The store is very well managed, clean, and organized, making shopping super easy and comfortable. They have a huge variety of groceries, snacks, drinks, fresh items, and household products all in one place. Their alcohol section is impressive too — lots of wines, beers, whiskey, and many other options from affordable to premium choices. Every time I come here, I always find everything I need. Great service, huge parking space, and overall a very convenient place to shop.”
“Love shopping here! They have everything that you can image just like at Costco or Ralphs but in smaller portion. If you have a small family, then this is the place to come. Everything here is fresh, and the self's are fully stock. Great selection of products.
See you next week Smart & Final!”
“Ralph's has this lemon, lime, or orange flavored ice that my family and I absolutely loves. You can't order online and get delivered or pickup. You have to go into the store. They also had some veggies I was looking for that were a bit hard to find.”
“I love this store! It has everything I need to give my family some of the traditions that I grew up with. Whether it's at Christmas or throughout the year. And, the ladies who work there are always help and kind.”
“My girlfriend and I came in a couple of days nights ago for some small items. We ended up chatting with the most pleasant and very wise young man who happened to be the security guard Donovan
He was had lended out his jumper to help some guys start their car during his break and gave me some great car advice myself along with some good directions for the where to find our items in the store. I can’t wait to see him again very determined young man.”
“Thank you so much to Ashley in the deli department for helping me pick out the best meat and cheese. She is such a beautiful and kind soul, and her customer service is unmatched, I truly hope she gets a raise, because she deserves it! We need so many more beautiful spirits like hers, if we did, this world would be such a beautiful and kind place to live in!”
“I went in today to get a new battery for my car. Damion (I hope I spelled his name right) from the tire and battery center was awesome in his customer service. Made everything easy and fast. Make sure you treat him well! I know good customer serrvice and he provided it. He's a great Sam's Club representative!”
“Taco guys in the liquor store parking lot is amazing. Come for the beers & liquor but stay for the tacos and support the hard working folks running the taco stand. They needs us as much as we need them ?”

“Every time I've been here the clerk has been so sweet and makes small talk with my boyfriend and I. I don't know why anybody would review this place negatively. Sure it might be a little messy but most Ma and Pa liquor stores are. My customer service experience was great here and has been every time.”
“One stop shop..Just need liquor and meat. I think the Owner is great and it would be nice if the community would raise money to help him get the building up to code so he could supply those things..”
“The larger stores have every thing I need like bulk cereal, nuts, coffee and all the low price stuff I've bought for years. Larger selection of produce and it seems like a larger store all around. Faster check out, more personel and now feels like a true full S&F market.”
“Great food and shopping experience. If you like browsing for new food choices...a blast. Also great for shopping for small households. And if you are someone who does not cook but wants to eat better quality food, Trader Joe is your friend. LOTS of great choices.”
