“The amount of research Erika has done, her knowledge, and the information provided to me in my wellness assessment, has been helpful for me to start making changes to my diet and supplements in order to feel better. After my initial visit with Erika to review her recommendations, I have the motivation and a plan for making these changes. I look forward to working with Erika to help me in this process as I learn more about what works for me.”
“Price-Rite hours in Wethersfield are Monday-Saturday 8am-9pm and Sunday 8am-8pm. My rating for Price-Rite is 5 stars because they have low prices everyday on thousands of items but you will have to pay 10 cents for a plastic bag like Save A Lot and Aldi supermarkets. Price-Rite you will have to pay 25 cents for a cart. Price-Rite has 10 aisles 6 checkouts 6 self checkouts.”
“New owners as of approximately March 2025. This market has a cozy, personal atmosphere. Staff here are very courteous and make me feel welcome each time I visit. Thank you!”
“I hope this store stays!!! I hope so hard!! This a gourmet grocery store and it fills a niche that Stop & Shop can't come close to filling. It has niche baking supplies, a wide variety of ready made baked goods, a soup bar, and a bunch of alternative snacks for the more health-conscious. I don't mind spending more because I only get these items once in a while for special occasions. The only thing -- I wish the soup bar's small size was 12 oz instead of 8oz and costed the same as now. Then I'd come in more often for a lunch and buy a snackie or two!”
“I went to stop and shop twice in one day and the same thing employee helped me each time. Her name was NashaLee and she was so kind and friendly, she made my experience spectacular!! I appreciate her so much and wish more people were like her!!”
