    Pay more. Check yourself out. Get watched like a thief! When self-checkout first arrived, employees actually helped customers. Now there are double-digit self-checkout lanes and maybe one worker, not assisting, just watching. It feels less like customer service and more like surveillance. On top of that, prices on many items are 30% higher than competitors like Market Basket, so you’re paying more to do the work yourself while being treated like a potential thief. Their slogan used to be “It’s time to Stop & Shop.” New Slogan recommendation: “Stop & Shop, you do it.”

    The director at this location is a well educated gentleman. Following a complaint. He was prompt and very understanding. We love stop and shop and so proud of their organic additions to the aisles.

    There are groceries here, but the strawberry section is all molded, and the options for bread and fish is very limited. When checking out, the staff went from two to one, which would have been fine if the cashier had helped at ALL and paid enough attention to not let out watermelon ROLL onto the bakery bread. Will avoid at all costs. Tdlr: Poor staff, molding produce, and limited produce.
