Meijer

This Meijer location is my go-​to grocery and GM shop. They have a nice selection of food and I even rather like their kitchen supplies and arts and crafts section, as well as their seasonal.
I cook a great deal and my boyfriend and I have somewhat refined tastes, and I seldom have a problem with finding what food items I need for a recipe, or with finding the type of snacks that my boyfriend and I enjoy that you just flat out cannot find at your local Walmart. They have a great produce department… it’s no Jungle Jim’s, but it’s still above par.
It’s always clean and tidy here, I’ve never had any cleanliness issue with this location, and the isles and shelves always look organized.
The only gripe I have is that not all of the cashiers are up to speed, so to speak. My boyfriend and I always split our total between two cards, and while there are a few good cashiers who have no problem with this simple request, we often get someone who has no idea how to do it and either has to call for help, or teach themselves on the spot, sometimes yielding unsatisfactory results (one of our cards charged the entire total, and a half-​baked apology from the clueless employee). Also, most of the cashiers seem to be totally bewildered by the produce that their store offers. I’m always explaining what some simple vegetable or fruit is that they should already be familiar with in their store. Tonight it was «what is this?» When it was a poblano pepper, and then searching for 5 minutes and a «how do you spell that?» In the past, it was a serrano pepper, explained to the cashier about three times when she kept looking at me slack-​jawed and going «a whuuuuu?» Only for her to charge me for two bunches of cilantro, which are way more expensive.
So, overall, great store, and it will probably always be my go to store, but the help is a bit incompetent.

I would have given them a 4 but over the last 12 years they are slowly going downhill. I started shopping here when they first opened because growing up in Michigan that’s where my family shopped. It was always fun. Here at this location over the last few years things in produce aren’t very fresh. My kids use to love browsing the toy section but even that has started to become bare. Its a shame that things like this happen but they do happen and hopefully they get better. I am really not a fan of Kroger and would rather not have to change to them. Guess I could 30 minutes to Jungle Jim’s. I’ll keep my fingers crossed the Meijer gets their stuff together.

It’s not a bad store and maybe, it’s a sign of the area but I noticed that the Blu-​Ray discs were locked away while WalMart does no such thing.
The store seemed very clean and unlike other Meijer stores, no one greeted me. In fact, all the time I was there, no one said anything to me.
The men’s restroom stall door did not latch at all, which was a problem, but not unlike Meijer.

This Meijer has a good selection compared to other local stores and other local Meijer stores. The prices work out to be a bit ahead if you were shopping solely at another store, but some items can be cheaper elsewhere. However, if you work the ads, and sign up for their email promotions, you can often get a coupon that will lower the cost of your bill.
The staff at this store do a good job of keeping it clean and stocked, and I usually don’t wait long in line. I can’t say the same of their competitor across the street (usually more than 15 – 20 minutes in line).

Its updated compared to some Meijer out there. Their pricing has improved a ton and its clean.
