Save A Lot

"Meat prices were good. Went to cash out. 3 people working at registers. I am disabled. I had a full cart. They all were talking amongst themselves along with 2 stocker people. No other people were cashing out. No help with packing or loading my groceries. I traveled there about 45 min. Just saying."

"I give this place three stars because when I last went there I bought some wild caught salmon frozen and I ate some n got really sick so just saying don't buy any seafood from there and I wouldn't buy meat either I bought a chuck roast and when I got home I opened it and it was brown on the bottom side, no good. In other words shopping there is a waste of ur money because they don't care about quality"

"They have great meat products there. Will not buy my meat any place else."

"2/22 - prices have gone up. 6/21 - More expensive then I would expect for a discount grocery but nice place to shop. I was satisfied with my experience. Some of the meat looks a little suspicious tho."

"1/8/2022 I was just aiming to shop for creamer an hour ago at Newark’s Save-A -Lot. A young man from the meat department was restocking the beef case. He adjusted his work gait to accommodate my glancing at some fresh tempting beef tenderettes. Upon seeing he paused for me I exclaimed; "Oh don't stop for me, I'm just looking at the tenderettes..." His response was a cheerful; "Not a problem. How are you today, sir? Can I help you find something?" "Well;" - I thought, I'm going to share my opinion with him and pass a moment between us. So, I said; "I think I'll be set with a couple of those good looking packs of beef tenderettes there." Adding; "I don't know what you do to make them so good. I've bought them here for over two years now and I've never got a piece of gristle or bone in them and I'm truly amazed compared to buying similar meats at Wegmans or Tops." The young man stood a bit taller now, and adjusted his mask. He replied; "We take our time when we cut the meat. We're very careful near the bone. We trim off a lot of fat, - most of the fat, so you get good meat." I said; "thank you, by the way, what's your name sir?" "Adam. My name is Adam." "Well Adam, I am pleased to have made your aquaintance and thank you for sharing." Then I did something quite uncharacteristic, I told him I had to get going I've got to go get some ground beef down the road at Wegmans! Adam asked; "Why, we have it right here on sale!" He moved aside from the tenderettes and there was display advertising 60/20 ground beef. (Just what we needed at home!) I chuckled and said; "I can't argue with quality, especially when you're offering a sale price!" Adam then asked how much I wanted. I replied; "give or take 5 pounds." He asked if I wanted it wrapped in one big package then. I said; "if it's no trouble I'd like to have it in 2.5 pound packages." He said; "coming right up give me three minutes." I know retail is often a thankless job however not in this case. I have to thank this store and praise them for having cashiers and people like Adam - who is so conscientious and pleasant....."
