| - First time at a WinCo today -- and LOVED it. I was blown away by the prices, the variety, the ease of access to everything I needed. The store was so much fun to explore -- and I never even made it to the non-food items. My husband was shocked at the amount of groceries I brought home for 120 dollars.
My daughter loved it too -- especially the bulk barrel section. It was nice to tell her she could try everything she wanted, since for just a little baggie of something, it was about a dollar or less for what she was asking for. She had a great time learning, exploring, bagging and weighing the items herself.
My daughter also helped me bag the groceries at the end, and she loved that, too! You know how kids are! I actually like knowing that the expectation is for us to bag our own groceries. So many times at other stores I get mixed messages about their bagging protocol -- am I supposed to wait for the bagger? Should I reach across and do it myself? Awk-waaard... Plus, for the low prices on great items, many name brands, too -- I am totally fine with bagging, especially since the cashier was so friendly. Oh, and I was able to use my Visa Debit card.
I must say I had a perfect grocery-shopping experience today and I feel so great that my kitchen is well stocked for cheap!
P.S. I also overheard an employee mention to someone else that he really likes working there, and the employee benefits are better than other grocery stores he has worked at. :)
