Seeing the existing poor reviews, I felt a little bit nervous to be so contrarian, but I like this supermarket. Since I'm new to the area I have been seeking a good sized, friendly, supermarket with some decent promotions. The local food lion appears to be of 70's vintage and is postage stamp sized in comparison (but ok still). I went to bloom but it was expensive for no reason and had apathetic rude people working there. Walmart is often overpriced (on some items), out-of-stock (on anything you want), and always crowded. I boycotted Harris Teeter for the first two months I lived here since I thought that it had a stupid name, but upon going I saw a bright and modern store with some decent promotions and a regular supply of free samples. All-in-all not too bad.
