    I had never had Cape Verdean food before and I figured Brockton was the place to get it.

    Stopped in for a quick grocery shopping, as I was in the immediate area…read more Large, clean Shaw's store. Each section was spacious and had a good selection. Prices were also very good. Store aisles are extremely large and easy to shop, so much more pleasant than Market Basket at the mall. Pet aisle was a it sparse, but wasn't too much of an issue. Ample parking and convenient location. May return but somewhat far to go back to a grocery store. Plus, it still doesn't compare to Stop&Shop with scanners, and self checkout (and if I wasn't so lazy yesterday, I would have drove over to Stop&Shop instead, a block away). Checkout went smoothly, and pretty quick which was a nice change from the long lines of other grocery stores (Market Basket and some other Shaw's locations). Only complaint: the men's bathroom is terrible. In definite use of remodel in the bathroom! Ugh. (-1 star). Overall, good supermarket in the West Brockton area, Stop&Shop may be better if you aren't shopping elsewhere in the Shaw's plaza and prefer SelfCheckout. 4 stars.

    Let me start off by being so appreciative that Market Basket is nearby me also instead of this…read moredump! The customer service here and especially management is extremely questionable. This past sunday morning , I placed a pickup order and everything was okay until I realized a spoiled product had been given to me, so I called customer service and was speaking with the "Drive up and go" manager. awful ...awful...awfulll is all I can say. I explained to her the issue and she immediately caught a nasty tone with me, trying to talk down onto her employees TO ME and blame them for the issue rather than focusing on the main issue at hand here. I was disgusted by how she handled the entire situation and shocked by the lack of professionalism at this store. Please save your money for market basket , much better service and much better prices. For the love of god this Shaws needs to get it together with a whole new management team as first priority

    Interesting supermarket in the eastern side of Brockton. If…read moreit had a tad bit more variety it would easily be one of my favorite supermarkets. For now, it is definitely my favorite grocery store in Brockton, and throughout this area..... but my local Stop&Shop still cannot be beat! Since I live in Westwood (30 minutes away), it's not like I can easily make Save-A-Lot a weekly trip for myself. Yes, it has great deals and great products. That being said the cost of my time and the gas to make it all the way over to the east side of Brockton wouldn't be worth it. Plus, my Stop&Shop has some major perks this store doesn't. First, who charges for plastic bags. Now, I actually like this move as they are promoting people to bring reusable bags (which are mandated in some other places that banned plastic bags like Newton, Brookline, etc, etc). A good and rare move for any other stores in the area. Next, the prices. They are super cheap! I completely agree with the other review.... they are less than Market Basket and Walmart. The variety of the store isn't great, but they carry all of the basics, and some other random stuff. They don't have a full bakery or a full deli, but sub-sections of each that somewhat make up a normal supermarket. Checkout lines are short and staff are friendly. Convenient location along East Ashland Street as well. 4 stars.

    I have been coming here since the new Co-CeoS of Market Basket decided to run their business into…read morethe ground. Save A Lot really does have some bargains. What I like about Save A Lot is their recourses to local bakery's and friendly staff. Believe it or not they actually are a little cheaper than Wal-Mart and Market Basket. I did take 1 star off because they have a limited selection and don't have a deli. Please lets all stand together and boycott Market Basket we can survive without them as well as there incompetent board of directors.
