Save-A-Lot
Reviews and Complaints

On 2/7/23 I visited the Save-A-Lot at 3333 Manchester Road Akron Ohio, I noticed as usual the employees with dirty raggedy clothes, this is the case every time that I go there, employees looking more like they are working at a auto repair shop and not a food store.

Manager had on sweats that looked like they have not been washed in months, a female cashier had on house shoes and pajama bottoms, another worker had on torn dirty sweatpants, at this time I decided I was not going to purchase anything from this store anymore.

If the employees are not clean then the food they process and handle comes into question in my opinion, I have seen road crews working that were cleaner than the workers in this store, this is sad and certainly no way to run a grocery store.

There is no food on the shelves. You can't use any of the coupons there is nothing available! I buy my meat there but the shelves are empty. You can see hundreds of products are completely missing. You need to send more trucks. Why don't you want to sell groceries? It happens every time you go into the store. They only get one truck and by the end of the week no food,

A incident happened at the store the owner of the store and the store manager and the person who was involved in an incident and me had a meeting discuss the situation between me and another employee to resolve the situation we worked out everything and I went back to work 3 weeks later I come to work and the store manager comes to me and says that I'm suspended so I asked for what and they told me for the incident that happened three weeks ago so they suspended me didn't give me no paperwork or a start or ending date to my suspension and I'm still sitting at home waiting to see what the outcome is going to be no one is answering the phone and he is not returning my phone calls or text messages

I purchased the coffee on 11/5/2022. This is the brand I always purchase. The coffee had a mixture of tea and coffee. It was very coarse. Unlike the usually mcdaniels. I bought the coffee around 4:00 PM. Also purchased was a bag of elbow mac.The UPC number is [protected]. Price was 5:99. I just want you be aware of this problem. Thank you very much.

This morning I was checking out and purchased a pack of Polar Ice gum among other items. I put the items in my bag after the cashier ERIC gave them to me. When I got home my gum was not in my bag. I just went into the Cleveland St, store in Clearwater Florida with my receipt and they called ERIC up to the front and he had a smart mouth telling me he gave me my gum. IT"S THE PRINCIPLE> They wouldn't give me a $1.49 pack of gum replacement. I couldn't believe it. I am a regular (WAS) customer and spend alot of money at this location. I also would like to mention the old lady with medium long black hair is so mean and nasty to me every time I go in there. Anyway I told ERIC you just lost a good customer and he said "OK"> Then I walked out. Unprofessional and they should of gave me my gum. Rude customer service.

I was told by a Rensselaer, IN store employee that the patties are no longer available. These are the BEST patties around. Please reconsider this decision as the same employee said "We can't get enough of these as they sell out very quickly". Therefore I'm not the only happy customer ;).. Please bring these back to the Rensselaer Indiana store. Which by the way is a very clean and organized store with a lot of very helpful staff.

Thank you for serving out town, sincerely Matthew

I was in on store number 61312, 10700 South Halsted, on 06/02/22 13:57pm auth#765546 lane #04 eps seuence 047622

When I got home and tried to fact check my receipt. I noticed most of the items on my receipt had no price listed next to them. Also the cashier number was not on the receipt. I paid with link and the cashier said $56 and I had a bag of cat food that was $11.01 and I paid in cash for the cat food. But the cost did not reduced by my link by $11.01

A few days later on 06/06 my mother went in Save a lot and her receipt listed a price next to every item.

with a cashier Number and etc. i wondering why my receipt look like this. It seems I was cheated because I cannot fact check none of the items with the cost I paid plus the $11.01 for the cat food should have reduced the total cost bring it down to $45

Okay my mom and dad went into the store Savealot Monday 5/30/22 on 1708 Nappanee street Elkhart Indiana. Neither of my parents didn’t have identification at the time so they had to put 3 MXD Long Island Ice Tea down cause of no identification. So I go in to make the purchase for them not to mind you my parents are 50 and 56 yrs old. I was denied service and was told I couldn’t make the purchase, having my identification and of age I was denied. The boss/manager looked me in my eyes and said “No cause I know where they are going”! And proceeds to tell her cashier not to sell me anything! Please tell me if that make sense. Please let me know if that’s illegal or not im 25 yrs old in July. And I also felt like I was being discriminated.

I have worked for the Pittsfield, IL Save-A-Lot for 2 supposed owners/managers that are nothing but rude and liars. They never come out of their office and are caught sitting in there scrolling through Facebook. The store is ran by a bunch of 16/17 yr old who hold the keys and all security keys for the store. They sell 1/2 rotten produce/dairy/and meat. When customers complain the managers/owners throw it onto the teenagers to fix the problem. They are rude to customers and staff. They are supposed to be governed by the corporate office but are not. They wrongfully fire people that is nothing but lies. In turn is getting turned over to the Illinois Dept. of Labor. They actually tell their employees to do what corporate says while they are here and then we go back doing it the way we want to run the store. Insects and maggots around mop buckets in the store. Mice in everything they can get into...and they dont care. THe employees are told to do one thing and when that is done then they get in trouble for doing it they way they were told and then told that it is not what they told them to do. They only want to hire "boys" so that the owners/managers can have their "eye-candy" to look at. They recently fired a young man that was the most polite, hardest working young man in the store and had a cop that was not even from the juisdiction throw him out of the store scaring the young man banning him and his family from the property. These people need to be removed as managers of ANY Save A Lot...they think they are above everyone else because they are little people. Well YOU don't treat employees or customers like that! Their business has fallen off badly and the teenagers are getting the blame. People in the town wont shop there because of those two. They state they are locally owned and operated and sadly that is a lie. They live in another state!

On April 22 my wife and I purchased a 5 pound roll of ground beef from Save a Lot at 2222 Fairless Drive, Lorain, Ohio. While cooking the product we noticed an incredible amount of grease coming from the beef. There was so much that it was unsafe to consume. The roll said 73% lean, 27% fat but it was the other way around. This product is of extremely low quality and should not be sold.

My family was shopping in the glasgow ky save a lot and my daughter put change in the little machines they have by the door and it took her money and didn't give her anything, this has happened before and we were refunded our money she rudely informed me that a third party handles their machines and started laughing in my face when I suggested they put a sign up to show the machines were broken its not about the money its the principle of the matter I told her I was calling corporate and manager and she said go ahead so I I have already contacted that store and I plan to contact corporate tommorow she has issues and has no business working with the public

I went into store and gathered my items and when I got to the register. The cashier was a old white female. She also had accent when she spoke. She may have been russian. When she started cashing my items out . She told me I was gay.

Today my wife went to save a lot at 1:20pm to buy a loaf of bread all she had was rolled penny's with name and phone number wrote on the side of them she got the loaf of bread and went to the office to pay for it the woman in the office refused the penny's money is money don't matter my wife and I and my family and friends will not shop at that store again Greenfield ohio that store has a lot of issues that need to be fixed I know of a lot of them but they will not do anything about it they just sweep it under the rug to make it disappear

Dunlap TN save a lot needs to do settle their employees down. I went in on Friday night of December 3, 2021 at approximately 6:15pm I don't know the names but the employees was 3 boys. They were running around the cash registers chasing each other and laughing and hollering. I'm in the back of store where milk is and can hear them all the way. I remind this is the 1st time either. And when customers get to registers they are ringing customers up and still continuing to holler and laughing which I consider to be very rude.
