Save A Lot

"On Saturday 8-10-19 I ran into the Save-a-lot in Parchment to grab a few items to prepare for lunch. Skimming the isles I ended up in the frozen food department in the back of the store.I didn't grab a cart because I only needed a few things & was in a hurry. Well the few items turned into too many for me to carry so I decided to put a few things back one being a bag of frozen french fries. As I was about to go the check out lane a girl from the meat department asked me to open to my purse because she believed that she saw me put an item in my purse something yellow she described & that it looked like my bag was getting larger. I told her I will not open my purse because I have not taken anything from this store & I am quite offended that you would suggest & accuse me of stealing. I immediately asked to speak to the Manager of the store(who was not there) I told the butcher girl to review the cameras because I didn't steal anything. I went to the check out lane & spoke with the Cashier & told her that I needed that butcher girl to come to the front of the store & apologize to me for her accusations. I also told the Cashier that I was no longer interested in purchasing the items that I had laid on the counter. I pulled out my monthly planner & told both ladies that my bag was a work bag containing all my work items along with other things. I told the butcher girl that today was her lucky day because I am an employee of one of the largest attorney firms in Kalamazoo, MI & that I would be pursuing further actions because of her behavior & accusations. If I really want to draw negative attention to this store I could easily do so. Racial profiling, false accusations among other things. I don't think the City of Parchment could afford to have yet another scandal running through their small community after the PFAS water crisis last year. This girl clearly needs education on diversity & since she is not a security officer she needs to be made aware of what she can & cannot ask a shopper who she suspects of shoplifting. As a matter of fact she needs her vision checked & a pair of glasses. Racial profiling is projected everyday in the lives of people everywhere. I will not shop at this Save alot store. And to those who patronized this store be aware of the butcher girl wandering the isles falsely accusing people of stealing. I also plan to make the Chain /Dustrict & Headquarters of Save a lot aware of this store & how they treat their customers."

"This is my new favorite save a lot."

"Remodeling to put a $tree next door. Prices are way up since I was there 6 months ago. The spice selection is amazing and they have the gravy packets that I have used for decades. I buy meat there as well. I'm glad they are still in business."

"The store was clean, the staff were friendly, and one of the workers was even kind enough to loan me a quarter to get a cart. I didn't spend a lot of time looking at the deals but there were plenty of them. This store had substantially lower prices compared to other local shops."

"The employee's that work there Rock!! So Polite, Helpful, do a great job in Customer Service. The food quality is good as well. Prices on some stuff can go back to what they use to be but hey that's every where. This location is great!"
