“I was just there 4/28/24 and it was huge. Dozens of vendors outside plus the inside spots were filled. My only negative? Walking on the large gravel stone isles. Wear shoes with thick soles. People with walkers and wheelchairs beware.”
“Since the move to another location, I've (like everyone) have noticed a significant increase in pricing! It use to be that I went there for a great deal! Now somethings I look at, i know I can get cheaper some place else & even closer. Your business would do more if the prices were beating everyone else like before. I loved shopping at the old store on E. Broad St. Thanks!”
“Had a great shopping experience. The store was fully stocked and clean. Plenty of workers stocking the shelves and stepping up when the line was long. They do not have helium at this time. Checkout was extremely fast and Carol was fun to shoot the breeze with.Product review: these pizza crusts are awesome! The markers work well for garage sale signs!”
“I wanna say thank you to Tyler, an employee there for taking the time to help me find things and listening to my questions. I'm a little bit slow so it was really heart warming that someone took the time to help me. Thanks Tyler :)”
“The lock at the baged ice freezers were frozen so I had to go back inside to get a refund. I was given back less than I was charged. The Lady apologized & was Very, Very Friendly”
“Great place to get balloons!I always go here for balloons for parties. They are cheap and have a nice selection to choose from. The store is always short staffed so I recommend going a few days early to order so they have time to get them ready. They always have them waiting and ready at the time I pick.”
“Tonight an associate was coming out the doors as me and my old man were entering, and she said "we have coffee". I turned to her amazed, wondering how she knew I was here for my iced coffee. She said she remembered us from the other night, we'd come for coffee and they were out of stock. I'd never had a more personal experience. It was awesome. She is awesome. And I didn't even get a chance to catch her name”
“This DG is the best because of Dawn and Sue. Sue is always so willing to help and Happy to do it. Then when you check out Dawn is a delight. Always smiling always happy always polite as can be. I could go in there just for that. Also the store is well kept.
Thanks Dawn, Thanks Sue... 100%”
“I am liking their new home decor products.... If they could just get a tiny bit better quality I totally would shop there more! I'm liking what I'm seeing!”
“Howdy.......

Autumn is beyond 5✨️ !!!!”
“Great store that is basically a small grocery store now with the selection of produce and things they added! It's now my go to cause it's right down the road if i need a couple things.”
“The store is clean, employees have always been nice. They are open till 10pm !
Best prices for steaks*.
I work late so at times I have been there 10 min before closing and never rushed. Although I am respectful and quickly get what I need and make it to the checkout with time to spare. Other stores are locking their doors and telling you to hurry on their loudspeaker when there is 30 till close. Talk about giving people anxiety.
Like all shopping you must DYOR. Some items can be more expensive and some cheaper.
Everything went up price wise, thanks to inflation, your buddies you voted for and minimum wage hike but @ Save-a-lot you still find a lot of food on the cheap.
I did have to quit A1 sauce because it's not cheap anywhere ($7 a bottle!).
There are tips:
Everyone should be onto the tube ground meat by now. You get 50% less meat and you are straining the rest (grease/fat/$) out. (hopefully not down your drain!)
Same with some frozen beef/filler patties when compare to others. They will be on fire ? in seconds, dripping grease,, nearly impossible to grill and not burn.
Buy the fresh ground meat and spend a little more and you will get more.
Test it out yourself: make idk... beef stroganoff or ?. Brown 2lb fresh and 2lb of tube beef.
You get coupons with your receipts sometimes, so use them.
The fresh chicken wings are always cheaper than others but...be careful they always seem to have access blood that will leak out the clear wrapper in your car if not careful ?. It happens everywhere tho, something like a phenomenon. It is the no bag thing that can be more noticeable. This Save-a-lot is a bonus here. You can wash your reusable bags if it does leak. Giant Eagle bags can not save you from the leak either, so dont try a 1-up on my post.?
I take them home, wash them re wrap and take out fridge next day and there is chicken fluid again. Maybe they keep the chickens hydrated ?.
???????
My only I wish ?is if you could please cut your steaks to a butchers proper 1- 1/2 inch thickness (at least 1in). ?
Nothing pains me more than a thin overcooked steak or a thin medium rare steak and hot coals leftover. Charcoal isn't cheap. It is by weight and I have been in the store with another thick steak hunter going through the packaged meats to find the thickest of the bunch. Staring eye to eye at each other and eachothers gone through stash, hoping they missed one close enough to the specs your looking for. Ready to pounce on that thick porterhouse before the other customer can see what you just uncovered from the corner of their eye and snatch it from the pile. The steak warz are real.?”
“Friendly pharmacy, thank you for putting apple flavoring in my daughter's antibiotics for her strep throat. Seriously thank you, she hates the bubble gum flavor, so finding out that I can ask for either apple flavoring or grape was awesome.”

Discount Stores
“Typical family dollar, it's true about the aisles being cluttered and disorganized. Lots of carts in the aisles with merchandise needing to be stocked. Plenty of parking with two entrances. If you are hauling a trailer or an RV, you could potentially pull in and exit through a separate drive with plenty of space.”
“Awesome place to go! Always have everything in stock unlike a few certain General stores around the area. Employees are always very helpful and polite. Keep up the great work!”
“The pharmacy staff is Exceptional in general, but Taylor, the pharmacist goes above and beyond and is one of the best pharmacist I’ve ever Pleasure of interacting with. She’s extremely knowledgeable and will do anything she can to make sure you get the Answers and or advice that you need.”
