If you are someone on a budget, then you will appreciate a place like this. The huge variety gives you amazing options at reasonable prices. I shop at the Willy Street Co-op as well, and I love that place too, but Woodman's is about the budget! I have heard people complain about the size of the place, but you need to have a large building in order to have the options! I will never complain about having so many things to choose from. There is always a different way to lay things out, but with the volume of customers flowing through there, I can understand their layout and how to helps to maintain stock. I have been loving this place since I got out of college and was poor as Madison poor gets.
Like I said, if you are looking to be wowed with displays and color coordination, then you should not shop here. If you need to stretch your dollar, then you have found home! :-)
