| - Sorry, Shopko Drive Copps, but I'm just not that into you. Something about this location just seems off. It's set up bizarrely, it's always dead, and it's the last holdout in an abandoned strip mall.
I've been here a few times and it still hasn't grown on me. My latest trip sealed the deal. I needed a few things before throwing a party and was able to get everything I needed despite having to walk in a few circles because I still haven't gotten the set-up cemented in my head. There were only a couple lanes open for checkout, plus the self-check kiosks. We opted for the self-check, and it took so long. So, so long. Part of the problem was that not one, but two machines broke down in the process. The woman in charge of the area had to shuffle people over to the regular checkouts, which took an enormous amount of time. This was in part due to her actually shuffling - instead of shoes she opted for socks. Not okay. Yes, they were cute Packers knee-highs, but you still need real shoes, ma'am.
When I finally got up the kiosk, the touch screen and scale were both wonky - it took me nearly twice as long to check out as usual because it kept not recognizing my items or what payment method I'd selected.
I'm glad there's a store available in this area for neighborhood residents, but I will probably start going out of my way if I have to in order to have a better shopping experience.
