    This store is so messed up. They had problems with registers supervisors were MIA. I went to the…read morefront to pay and found my car hit with a cart when I get out went to complaint they send me to 1800walmart they told me a store had to do a report . I go in with the claims department on the phone to customer service when I told them I have the claims department on the phone and was told to talk to customer service about the report the employees left like cockroaches exposed to light. I was arguing with the guy on the phone about how they all left. He didnt believe me so I moved next to the registers so customers and employees can here on speaker phone. This was the only way I actually got a supervisor. They filled out the report 50 minutes after going into the store. To file. Today I get a call from Walmart I reviewed my dash cam and explained a customer pushed the cart into my car because he was arguing with the cart attendant refused to take the cart, at least that's how the body language between them looked. So theystated it does not be covered because a customer did it. What a joke I should just sue but the damage is not enough to make it worth sueong. Was a big Walmart fan till now. And don't ever attend to go back to one.

    I was waiting for optical to open (website says it opens at 10am but it was not open until noon)…read more Since I had time I decided to do the monthly shopping for my family of 8. [I usually shop Sams online and pickup the order, since the order is usually very large.] I went to check out with my cart overfull with mostly meat. But there were no cashiers. Exactly zero staffed checkout lines open. I went to customer service and asked if they will open a line and they said 'no' and to go to self-checkout. I explained that self checkout with this many groceries including lots of produce and meat would be tough. And that I would really like a checker. They said no so I said I would have to leave my cart and someone would have to reshop which would take longer than checking me out. They said that was fine. So I took pictures and they called security because I took pictures. Btw security did not care about my pictures. Here they are. No more walmart. No more Sams.

    On a recent trip to Philly I stopped in Mom's Organic Market to stock up on groceries for my home…read morestay where I could cook. I am currently living in San Francisco so San Franciscans in Philly can think of Mom's Organic Market akin to Rainbow Grocery in SF. Mom's has a great variety of local and organic produce. Hard to find items that you would find in a good well stocked natural food store or cooperative like Mom's is. Staff is friendly. The layout of the store is a labyrinth that can be confusing like a rubik's cube too far gone yet with a little patience and perhaps asking security, staff, or one of the regulars they can help you get your learning curve to navigate the store of organic natural food product heaven. Within Mom's is the Naked Lunch vegan restaurant which I will return to have a bite there as it looks interesting. I am a proud graduate of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University in Boulder, CO where I received the William S. Burroughs scholarship. I did my thesis on William S. Burroughs and William S. Burroughs wrote Naked Lunch aka the cut up novel for which this restaurant is named. Since I was in Philly two weeks I was mixing up dining out at the wonderful vegan foodie scene in Philly along with cooking at my homestay. For cooking at my homestay at Mom's I picked up the following: Soymilk Local and organic blueberries Bananas Garnet jewel sweet potatoes Limes Avocados Organic granny smith apples Red cabbage Ginger root Sweet yellow onion I am pretty sure all the produce was organic. Mom's has been family owned and operated since 1987. Great bulk bin items. Great produce. In a word, great. Mom's sets the bar high for a natural food store. They are like the special forces of natural food stores which is quite alright in my book.Each day Mom's states customers prevent 9,233 grocery bags from being used. Mom's has banned over 250 ingredients from our products storewide. Mom's has chosen to print their receipts on BPA and BPS free paper products for the safety of it's community and the environment. In a word...Yes!

    I picked up two Too Good To Go bags here because I wanted to compare them to the bags I'd…read morepreviously received from the Art Museum area location. The difference was honestly pretty dramatic. At the Art Museum location, my bag contained a single package of turkey breast that unfortunately had already gone bad by the time I opened it. At this South Street location, I received four packages of beef patties, and everything was still fresh when I picked it up. As a direct comparison, I cooked the meat from both pickups the same day I received them, and the freshness difference was immediately obvious. No sour smell, no questionable quality, just perfectly usable products that I was happy to take home and cook. The value here was significantly better too. I know Too Good To Go bags are always a bit of a surprise, but I genuinely didn't expect such a large difference between locations under the same store brand. When I arrived, the instructions directed me to customer service. Since it was my first time picking up from this location, I wasn't entirely sure of the process. The interaction felt a little abrupt, and I got the sense that the staff member assumed I already knew where to go. To be fair, it was close to closing time and the weather wasn't great, so it may have just been one of those days. I didn't take it personally. On the other hand, the employee at the meat counter was fantastic. Very friendly, efficient, and had the bags ready almost immediately. The pickup itself was quick and easy once I got to the right place. One thing I did notice was a slight fishy smell in parts of the store. It actually reminded me of some Asian grocery stores I've been to. Not necessarily a dealbreaker, just unexpected in a Whole Foods. Overall, I'd choose this location over the Art Museum one without hesitation, especially for Too Good To Go pickups. Better value, fresher food, and a much more satisfying experience overall. I was genuinely impressed by how much was included in the bags and how fresh everything was when I got it.

The employees at the Amazon desk are pleasant and efficient. There usually isn't a line for returns here either. I was surprised to see Good Culture cottage cheese in stock today, so I grabbed one before they sold out again. I also picked up a rose flavored yogurt that I'm very excited to try. Self checkout lanes make for a quick and easy experience purchasing groceries.

I'm sure I left stuff out but you have to immerse yourself in it to love it as much as I do. I found that their lunch hero's and focaccia sandwiches are the best in the city for under 15USD each. Every employee is helpful and goes out of their way to make sure things go well. There are a few tables inside and outside to enjoy your meal and snacks. 5 stars!

I was initially perturbed at the sight of the dry rub, but after demolishing this entire thing, I began to question the rest of the country. Why isn't a dry rub more popular on a rotisserie chicken? It really works. It cost $12.99 and it ended up landing at 9/10, which currently ranks it 8th out of 76 grocery store birds I've tried. An ELITE bird. I was so hungover doing this review, and it damn near brought me back to life. You can lowkey feel that in the video. On an ancillary note, I love Philly with all of my being. There is so much soul down there. One of the most slept on food scenes in the world. I feel like I say this in every Philly review, but I will continue to say it until Philly gets the respect it deserves. GO BIRDS! For a full list of the rankings, head over to johnnynovo.com.
