Did a Monday grocery run to Hannafords (Chittenden Cty, Vt.) Had a $27 loyalty credit and $2 manufact. coupon. Had to pick up a prescription too.
First off, script wasn't ready, even though app said yes. Tech asked me to wait ten minutes. No problem, did my shopping.
Had a list, top off stuff that use regular like. They moved a lot of stuff around. Candy, chocolates, have been moved across the aisle and looks to be noticeably smaller. Only had one of the store brand 72% dark chocolate, bought that and a Lindt 40%.
Store brand dairy was fully stocked, low on creams, especially heavy. Didn't see any light. Decent amount of half and half if your weren't being choosy.
Chicken was on sale. Got some ground and was interested in the $1.99 boneless breasts. Those boneless breasts looked almost as big as a football! Huge. No thanks! Guessing somewhere along the way some agricorp wasn't able to get their chickens to slaughter or market and kept them alive for later. Imagined them being tough.
Got everything I wanted except blueberries. Almost bought red grapes on sale but again, they were huge, just like the blueberries last week and chicken breasts this week. To me that's frankenfood.
Stuff was there for the most part, as long as you didn't want a lot of multiples. Prepacked sandwich meat totally low again. Plenty of honey ham and turkey if you like it.
Good news is they had refrigerator lightbulbs. Or a refrigerator bulb. For $.99 even. Much better than the $5.99 on amazon.
Prescription could only be partially filled. Back to that again. Don't think it was because I'm 2 days early. Usually they call immediately if there's going to be a delay. So back on Wednesday to pick up the remaining 85 days worth.
The old pharmacist ran that place awesome and gave a crap.
Store was pretty dirty, a lot of weird in aisle displays blocking shelves and holding up traffic. Not sure what's up with that when there's empty shelf space.
Belt was dirty at check out, that is totally new, and there was bits of trash around on the floor. Hopefully it's just a lack of help and a slow day.
All in all pretty good. No one tried to kill me. Got my stuff, sort of, really wanted the pills. Was able to drive there and back without showing papers.
