| - I tried this HT instead of the one closer to my house, hoping for a better experience. Plus they have a Starbucks. The highlight of the trip was the coffee, the rest was the same mediocre experience I have at the store closer to me. This store does seem to be busier, and the aisles seem cramped with displays As a former retail manager, I notice things like that.
I wanted to buy some of their $1.99 lb chicken breast from the meat counter, but the display was empty. Everything else was full, just not the eVIC special chicken breasts. I decided to shop the rest of the store and then come back. Upon returning, the chicken spot was still empty. I asked the guy filling the ground beef section for help, and he walked behind the counter. I guess the chicken was sitting in a box there, because when I asked for 6 pieces he grabbed them and bagged them quickly. I wonder why they were just sitting there instead of in the display case? No biggie, after a couple of minutes I was on my way. You would think the guy would fill the display case now, right? Especially to get them refrigerated. Nope, back to the ground beef section he went to complete his task. Smh.
At the checkout, there was nobody to assist in bagging, except the cashier herself. One of my pet peeves about the HT by my house is that they offer to have someone take groceries to my car. Huh, must be a Publix opening nearby soon. I have shopped at that location for 7 years, nobody ever offered that service until the Publix location was announced. The problem with the offer of assistance is that they don't have anyone to perform the carry out. So if you take them up on their offer, you have to wait for them to find someone. That wasn't a problem at the location being reviewed. There wasn't an offer, nor was their anyone who could have helped anyway. I guess they don't have a Publix opening nearby lol.
