    Online order for pickup was a disaster. #1 - I used a promo code for $25 off. It was applied. When I went into the order to do a quick update, the promo disappeared and I was unable to reenter it. Solution was to call customer service for Giant. Of course they are not available on Sunday, so I will have to call tomorrow. #2 I had to enter the store for the pickup. They were understaffed and my order was not ready. They had to "find" it in the back, where it was waiting. #3 An item was noted as not in stock. I found many of the same item right on the shelf where they were supposed to be. Pretty unhappy with the order online for pickup process at Giant. Did not save me time or money.

    I've started noticing some amazing price differences between this Giant and the Food Lion less than 10 miles away. Giant is, in my opinion, outrageously more expensive. For example - Bear Creek Soup Mix is only $3.99 at Food Lion, but Giant charges a whopping $7.19 FOR THE SAME ITEM! See the photos I took as proof. Both grocery chains are owned by the same parent company - Ahold Delhaize. So why are customers in Columbia being charged so much more on items like this? This isn't the first time I've seen this. Time to stop shopping at this store! It's a shame that I no longer can shop at my own neighborhood grocery store without facing rip-off prices like this!

    Currently undergoing renovations, so some items have been moved. Clean, well stocked, plenty of parking. Staff are not very friendly.

    Whoever decorates the cookies and cakes in the bakery deserves a raise! Always love seeing what they've cooked up when we go for groceries.
