Kroger Compliment - Kroger store State Street, Saginaw MI - Supermarket

Supermarket - Compliment
Review by old fart on 2010-04-21
SAGINAW, MICHIGAN -- We used to go to the Walmart store nearest our home simply because it was close and I thought it had everything we might need.

The last several weeks Walmart did an "upgrade". and we use the word loosely because all it did was scramble the merchandise and make the store next to useless.

We have started going to the new Kroger store on State street and discovered that they have almost twice the items, many of which Walmart does not carry at comparable if not lower prices.
We have also noticed that the personnel are much friendlier and more knowledgeable about the store and products.

Wally world has lost a regular customer!

I miss Kroger since moving away from that part of the country. I found the Kroger brand of food products very comparable (sometimes better) than some name brands. Years ago, you could try a Kroger product and if it didn't compare of "beat" the name brand, you could exchange the unused portion of said product for the name brand. I can't say if that policy still exists.

Kroger out here is Ralphs Marketplace, but they have always been great. Good review Old Fart. Hope Walmart is listening!

I am in total agreement with the OP. Walmart also "upgraded" in Columbia SC and not only do I feel like I waste time getting everything, the inventory has been cut back and the prices are no longer worth the time I have to spend shopping! Bi-LO got back a past customer!
