It was interesting visiting an English grocery store. First of all this particular store was…read moresmaller than the ones in the United States. Also, English grocery stores aren't laid out the same. For example cookies might be in multiple locations rather than one designated "cookie aisle." Also it was interesting because you had to pay for a shopping cart. They did have a limited number of hand baskets. If they ran out of hand baskets, people would use the bags they brought and add there items into the bags. Then remove them when they got to the counter. It was nice because there weren't long lines, and they had a lot more self-serve kiosks than my local American grocery store.

This is a very busy store so is a bit too busy for me in peake hours. However, they are open 24 hours so I tend to go later in the evening when the children are in bed (Husband is at home of course).

If there is a new manager in this store he should be sacked straight away and get the old one back. If I could I would shop elsewhere. Just got to talk the wife round.

The customer service here is actually pretty good, with some members of staff more knowledgable than others though. The store is large enough to have a good range of items availble, although stock control is not always all that it might be, with items being out of stock for several days, or even weeks at a time, especially if they are on special offer or BOGOF. This seems to especially apply to wines that are on offer. The quality of the fruit and veg can leave a bit to be desired at times and if you shop in the evening, despite this being a 24 hour store, you can find lots of empty sections. There can also be a real shortage of bread late evening and the fish, butchers and deli counters do close during the evening. There is now a Direct counter in store, so you can order from there and also have items delivered to the store for collection. There is a minimum order value for free delivery to the store though. There is a petrol station here and also a Link cash point.
Extremely poor treatment of young customers. I have been shopping in this store for over 10 years…read morewith family etc, and over the past few years I have noticed most times I'm in the store I am being followed around by the security guard (as described earlier). However one experience has really thrown my family's interpretation of Morrisons off completely, and this experience involved another staff member as well as the security guard. Me and my friends were casually browsing an isle to when I noticed the lady staff member as described earlier was trying to intimidate me and my friends to leave the store with her arms folded alongside a partially aggressive facial expression which she held for more than a minute as we looked in discomfort. I would like to add that no suspicious behaviour was going on between me and my friends during this whole time (for reference we are all sixth form students in further education) who were NOT looking for trouble but instead browsing the store. I asked the lady worker if she was okay in a formal manner to which she began to give extreme attitude to the point where it felt as if she was moaning at us for the sake of it. Her clarification to why she was trying to intimidate us was completely ignored, as she believed she was not doing so....however I am 1000% sure if you checked security footage you would find she was. To no surprise the security guard who I described earlier makes his way over completely unaware of the situation, to which he then immediately sided with the employee under the impression we were causing no good. During the entire interaction I stayed in a professional manner with no poor treatment of staff or bad language used however on the other hand the security and employee continued to stay aggressive and intimidating with their behaviour severly lacking good interpersonal skills and shutting down all allegations that they or (she the worker to begin) was in the wrong. Threats such as calling the police on me and my friends were also made, with no reason to why. And I can confidently say that in an overall summary the way in which they handled the entire situation was childish and unprofessional. I repeat no antisocial behaviour was carried out by me and my friends. Both of my friends stayed quiet the entire time whilst I spoke up about how I thought. A compliant has already been made by my father as he knows for himself that the security are over the top with LOYAL customers, however this complaint has clearly not been taken into account. Do better, whether that's more on the job or off the job training these situations make customers feel uncomfortable and it's time someone spoke out. Now aside from this...Morrisons have some nice and friendly younger employees who have obviously had successful training. with this being said some employees particularly those who are older or have more experience in the store, need newer training etc.

Now at the end of all of this the manager came which was a young girl who had no interest in providing little customer service at least little .. her first question is " where did you get this item?" how the manager doent know what items the shop sells???? is it her first day? so all of this could be avoided as well as maybe a small teminder to this staff members -- they are suppose to help

This leads me to the dilemma of whether I leave my toddler or baby in the trolley to potentially get run over while I put the other in the car.

Fed up because the store keeps moving the stuff around to stimulate impulse purchases? ;-)) Hacked off by people standing yacking in mid-aisle to enrich their shopping experience? Suffering from arthitis/rheumatism/an old war wound? Several supermarkets do home delivery in many areas (e.g. Asda, Tescos). I've tried all of them, but Sainsbury's are by the far the best IMO. Maybe not the cheapest, but I think the best value. You can login 24/7. Then you have find out whether you are in fact within their catchment area, and register to provide the usual details. Having done that, you first have to agree a delivery window, which you can select (best to go to the site about 4 days prior to delivery for maximum delivery slots). So you're ready to rock! You click your way round their 'e-aisles' and 'add to basket' as required. This takes a while first time round, but it adds your purchases to your My usuals log, which will show up next time you login. All that happens then is that you remember to be at home and wait for them to cruise round. You have reduced your carbon footprint and saved yourself a lot of grief! ;-) It costs £6 per delivery, but if they are late, you don't pay. They will make suggested replacements which you can either accept or send back. These are usually O.K. You will also instantly see what is on special offer (e.g. at the time of writing for example, wine is 25% off! For the benefit of the geekish I am sure that they use CRM software to log transactions, because the number of our suggested replacements seems to just go down and down. Busy, no time for shopping, grumpy, fed up with all the other aspects mentioned above? Then go for it!

There is little in the way of multi deals. Every item is about 20p more expensive than every other Sainsbury's local store. I have never seen anything reduced in this store.

Oh and finally the guy 'cooking' in the bakery can be spoken to through the shelves and he will often say 'no more' no more' just when you have got the fillings for the bagel, roll or baguette you want to buy. It is unbelievable that the head office is above this poor example of a store.
