  The store is in a good location as far as food and other extra things are concerned, that's a major positive for the store here. But that's where it ends. No matter what time you go, early in the morning, in the early afternoon, in the evening, or late at night, there are almost never enough lines open for customers. You'll be in line 20 or more minutes just about every time. The last time I went it wasn't all that bad, I think I was in line half the time, so that was nice. But it's not the norm. And be on the watch for Helen, one of the greeters. One time when I was shopping with my wife she had a customer ahead of us held up and was checking his family's cart, with the husband coming from some other direction and then joining his family at the cart as we were going to leave. I figured she had an important reason to check their stuff and so we went around to go into the front lobby, and basically not wait in a line. She said nothing to us as we passed by. Only when we were in the lobby did she literally come yelling at us to stop and that we needed to wait on her. But why? You didn't stop us when I passed right in front of you when you were LOOKING right at me? She was treating us like we just stole something and it was very embarrassing, and even her managers said she was in the wrong for what she did. I'm fine with you needing to check items, that's not an issue, but when you look me dead in the face and let me go and only after that do you come yelling that's unacceptable. My wife said that she was making a racket about a kids baseball/bat combo that wasn't in the bag. Really? Something that would never fit in a bag, ever, and you yell at us for that? Sure, we could have grabbed a bat and tried to run off with it, but I don't see every person that leaves being stopped for things "out of the bag" even when they are smaller and more easily could have been a theft! I don't know what the heck her issue was, but be on the watch for her. She let other people go by without stopping them on a later date and it really made me mad. It made me wonder what it is she had against us but not against the other people. We weren't drunk, yelling, being stupid, or anything crazy, so it made no sense. To this day I can't figure it out, and her managers said she was wrong and they apologized for that. People like her either need to be consistent or not be there. Period. It's not good for your business when your customers are treated that badly but yet others with items also not in bags are treated just fine. Helen needs to learn that a ball bat will never fit in a bag, ever, and that yelling at somebody after they've already gone past isn't going to do you any favors or make you look good. If the amount of open lanes increases even a bit that would be great. Helen is the biggest negative, but you very well may be one of the people I saw not being given a fit, so that may be fine to you. Hopefully she and other things improve, because this store is in a great location.
