They have no free bags to carry things I bought out.... Which are all 100 percent products wrapped in plastic with plastic bags around that. This makes no sense.

I’m extremely disappointed. Every single time I buy fruit from HEB — whether in-store, delivery, or curbside — it comes with mold. This has happened repeatedly.
Checking for freshness and food safety should be basic quality control. Mold on fruit is visible. How is this being overlooked so often?
Customers trust HEB to provide safe, fresh food. This ongoing issue shows a serious lack of attention when selecting produce. Something needs to change.

7/10 times you order pick up they will get the order wrong and it’s such a hassle to get what you originally ordered.

The store is well lit woth a wonderful selection of fresh fruit, natural foods, and an amazing beer and wine selection. One of the bonuses is the bbq joint in the HEB.

Stopped in the buy flowers for my mom and picked up a dozen roses but needed them in a vase. I asked the florist if they had one to fit the arrangement I was holding and was handed a empty vase and that was it..I am usually offered assistance with placing the flowers in the vase and even maybe spraying up the arrangement when I shop at the other grocery stores for flowers. Just real inpersonable and would have tipped if I had been offered the help. So I am taking this arrangement to the hospital as a dozen roses wrapped in plastic stuffed in an empty vase ..
