Save-A-Lot need to hire more employees because the line so long you cant even buy ice cream out of there or it will melt and I dont like that I can buy ice cream I have to wait in the line for about a good 10 to 15 minutes

I gave save a lot a low rating because their meat selection is very limited. Lots of pork products in the meat department. Very little beef options.

The chip in my card malfunctioned, and a young man that works there paid almost $40 for my groceries. Great young man, my cashier was also excellent. I wanted to express some love from my family to the people of this heart store.

Prices are good. Bread is very fresh. Workers are friendly and helpful. I find that if an item is featured in an ad, you need to purchase the same early in the sale as they will run out.

You have to use a quarter to get a cart, and you bag your own groceries and charge for the bags so take your own bags. Its fine but some brands I dont care for.

This place is ghetto. Hardly anything is in stock they barely have meat after the 1st of the month. Stuff is scattered everywhere. Once you start buying an item and its starts to sale they stop carrying it. They are always short staffed lines are long as hell. They never have baskets at the door they are always scattered across the parking lot. The fruit and veggies are never fresh. Go to Foodlion for fresh veggies and fruit. If you like quick stuff then this is the place for you.

Review №32

Prices might be good but theres always a line and they never open up another register. There can be five or six people in one line with big baskets and they never open another register. That just reminds me of why I dont go there very often.

The new layout is great and having the quarter carts means they are always at the door awesome

Review №34

Avoid the fruits and vegetables. They are always bad or going bad and mushy. No fresh fruits or veggies. Meats are never fresh either, they have brown and green in them and the prices are not cheaper than other places.I went here for certain items that seems to have a good price and I couldn’t find else we’re. Well now they don’t even carry those!Shrimp are overpriced as most items. Store name is save a lot but doing groceries here won’t save you a dime!Store is dirty and you only have 2 people working cashier. Half of the time they are rude anyway!

This is a discount grocery store, not quite as fancy or as wide a selection as the Euro-chains like Aldi or Lidl, but reliable enough and very affordable. Bring a quarter to unlock the shopping cart, dont be surprised by house brands and choose your produce and dairy with an eye to immediate consumption moreso than stocking up. The Hopewell location has very nice staff, who more than make up for the occasionally iffy quality of the stock Save-a-Lot gets from their corporate (this is true of a lot of Hopewell chain stores; crummy corporate and iffy to actively rubbish quality goods, but the people who work there are such a delight, you almost dont mind,) and their return policy is reasonable enough that the occasional inconvenience of a bad batch is generally more than worth the risk for the money you save trying a cheaper store. (I often dont even bother the nice people working there; if theres a bad batch, thats Corporates problem.)Their meat section isnt huge, but tends to carry good buys in family packs of steaks, chops and ribs and large packages of prepared meats like bologna. Their baking mixes, cereals and canned goods have a reliable selection of common favorites like Cheerios, spaghetti-os and birthday cake. And they stock a nicer than usual variety of inexpensive staples such as ramen noodles, rice, beans, frozen meals and other simple, easy-to-prepare, not necessarily healthy but palatable and affordable food that will keep body and soul together when one hasnt much to spend. Their selection of comfort foods that families can prepare together, like macaroni and cheese from a box, pizza crust mix and all the fixings to homemake your own pizza, pasta noodles and sauces, plus a lovely range of affordable ice cream treats such as children love, thats very good here.The entire store gives the impression of having had its stock picked out by the sort of well-meaning uncle who cant necessarily make dinner without following the instructions on the package or firing up the grill outside, but who has a really good grasp of what the nephews and nieces love, saw half a Sesame Street one time and thus there IS technically a produce section, and also, more than ten kinds of soda and eight of candy, which is why hes the favorite uncle. Save-A-Lot is simply not someplace you shop for health foods. Save-A-Lot is where you shop for thrift, for just a few extra things you need to finish a recipe, or because your kid cleaned her entire room and you promised her she could choose dinner and make it herself despite being five. Save-A-Lot has meals a five-year-old can make and you can get them for under eight dollars. Under five if shes in rather a noodle mood.They do stock a thoroughly pedestrian and not at all inspiring selection of macrobrew domestic beer (Blue Moon was the most interesting choice they had, and if thats not damning with faint praise, I dont know what is,) and their wine selection very nearly competes with that of Sheetz gas station. So if youre stopping there to get something for a homemade romantic dinner for Valentines because thats all you have in the budget? More power to you! Something is better than nothing and better to feel full and happy on Save-A-Lot spaghetti, all Lady and The Tramp-style, than broke and anxious trying to manage something expensive.Its not the fanciest, always the healthiest, or the newest. The recent renovation is helping a lot. Its not the best grocery store in the world and it doesnt pretend to be. But when all you need is affordable comfort food that tastes good and is close by, its what you need and it suits just fine. Plus the people working there are so nice, you often catch yourself stopping there for milk and bananas on the way home just to see a friendly face and pass the time of day. Stores dont have to be glitzy, glam and pricy to have a special place in a community. Sometimes just being a nice place to buy the fixings for smores and a bottle of Coke where the people are friendly is all you want. This is that kind of place.

The store has great prices. Really the only thing is they always run out early on the meat sales, that are usually really good sale prices. They should limit how much someone can buy at a time and not allow restaurants to buy a bunch at a tome. Or if they sell to bulk buyers be prepared and keep it separate from every day people.

This store has the basic grocery products. They are also getting new name brand products a little at a time. The prices are great for those on a budget.

Review №39

I just did my shopping for this week and am so glad I only bought a few items. The new policy of customers having to bag their own items after the clerk rings them up and puts them BACK IN THE CART is going to drive a LOT of customers away. I am an elderly person with health issues and it was hard for me to do this. I will no longer be buying my groceries at your store. This is not a good policy and whoever thought it up should be fired!!!

Overall I have positive experiences with this Hopewell location all though I have had a negative experience where my husband wasAccused of buying benefits off the street and that made me think of a employee in a different light other than that I like shopping here... I get in and out in a reasonable amount of time

This store is the worst managed store have ever seen I have seen door propped open on hottest day of year never got AC on any thing lower than 72 degrees now automatic doors broke with a sign saying push. Really I mean really can we get better management. This is the worst I have ever seen this store. I do believe it might be the worst store I have ever seen.

Food is nasty, they always sell old bananas that need to be thrown out, or when you think you have good ones they are not. They turn old a day after you bring them home. Who ever heard of green rotten bananas. Me either, until I brought bananas from here. They only reduce prices when item are old, like that day old and going bad. Had bought honey buns, brought them home they had mold on them. Have bought frozen items but you could tell they let their items sit out and un thaw and freeze the items again. Bought salami and it was bad. Now did I know it was going to be rotten, no. Took it back as it had their products name on it, but of course I didnt have my receipt. So the guy gets all smart with me and then say well I will let you exchange it this time. I say only go here if you really have to, like last resort type of thing.

While it is quite convenient and the atmoshere is quite nice, they really need to work on the quality of the products to which they are selling. For example, I recently bought a bag of hot fries from here, it had cost $2 plus tax, when I opened the bag of hot fries that same day they were all stale and hard.

Sh
Review №55

Every time I shop at this location the line is ALWAYS long. Theres only one cashier for 5-10 customers, which makes the wait longer, which is frustrating when youre only buying 2-3 items. I sincerely hate going to this store and the only thing that keeps me as a customer are the prices. So good job on that part I guess!

I was reading some of the posts of the store and it has had face lift, purchase bags and you have to put a quarter to get a cart so what you have to buy bags at publix and bag them yourself l will shop at save a lot until they are no more.

This has got to be the shabbiest super market Ive been to. When I first walk in I am greeted by fruit and vegetable that passed their expiration date. Their strawberries have mold on them and they are still selling it? I bought a pine apple and when I open it it reak. Their tuna has a bad fishy smell. Their apple pie is made of rotten apples. I took one bite and have to throw it away. Onto their meat they sell steak that is partly green. I am buying steak not Frankenstein meat. I bought the frozen bag of chicken and when I thawed it it smells like expired chicken refreeze. The line is always long since theres only 2 employees in the store. The price are low and you get what you pay for but in this case i feel rip off. Aldis is cheaper and they dont sell rotten food. Will never go there again.
