Everyone else was so helpful except for your brunette cashier friend. Some tips: bring a euro coin to unlock the carts. You get it back after return. Weigh and tag your produce or chubby cashier girl gets steamed. If it is such a problem why not put up a sign that it needs to be done? Montepulciano is frequented by many tourists. Very clean store. Not high end products but good quality. Bring bags.

Supermercato EMI is an excellent supermarket. It is large, with a wide selection of food,…read morebeverages, and other goods. Aisles are wide and well-organized. Staff are friendly and helpful (though I advise learning some Italian phrases -- unlike the larger cities, English is not widely-spoken in this region). Prices are good; EMI also stocks a variety of other items you mightn't find at a stateside supermarket, such as clothing, electronics, and bicycles. Note for those unfamiliar with the Italian supermarket system that items such as fruit and baked goods must be weighed and labeled at computerized scales where you pick them up; the cashier cannot do it for you at checkout and will send you back (ask me how I know). Ample parking out front and quick access to and from the Autostrada. A great store.

I feel I'm so nice and friendly when I go in there and I don't even get a crack of a smile. I've never seen someone who looks like they hate their job so much.

All you need is here - opened 7 days a week!…read more Coop is a supermarket chain. There is a small one in town at the harbour. But you really should head for this one - the big one (located in a mini-mall)! Everything you need is here. Meat (fresh, packed or frozen), cold meats, bread, pastry, cookies, olive oil, dairy products, pasta, all the non-food items, beer, wine, spirits and a great selection of fresh fish and seafood! It's like a Safeway / Walmart / Tesco...that kinda supermarket. A wee bit smaller of course. We shopped here on a daily basis during our time in San Vincenzo this year and the year before. Especially the seafood / fish selection is very nice....and so fresh! And you really can walk away with a huge load of seafood for under 20 Euro. The cold meat cuts and their cheese are great too ... and really low-priced, but high quality. Also great to stock up your alcohol! And if you need anyhting else to eat / cook or other items for you household, they probably got it too. It's also where the locals shop. Opened 7 days a week (sundays only in the morning), except for holidays like Christmas or Easter.
