But as for shopping on the regular.... eh, I don't know about that. The complaints about the lack of customer service are spot on. Separate departments seem to fare better - the deli counter staff in particular are attentive, friendly and quick - but if you need help finding something, you'd be better off on your own. Pricing is right on the median - it's not expensive like Safeway or Wegman's, but it's not cheap like Shoppers, either (and definitely not on the level of Walmart Grocery). If you don't have their bonus card, get ready to be ripped off. I've also heard cashiers yell for management, stating at the top of their lungs that "their customer has a WIC voucher!" or "SNAP card!" NOT necessary and very humiliating. I've also heard complaints about some food being expired or spoiled, and I have to admit that this kind of makes me squeamish. Since then, I've tried not to purchase perishables like vegetables or fruit from here. There are some positives - it's never really crowded, so I can get in and out fast, and some of the products are actually surprisingly good (the Weis premium ice cream is amazing!). As mentioned, some of the staff are friendly and they do try hard, but you can tell them apart from the ones that don't. It's glaringly obvious. They're open super late too, until 11pm, so that really helps me out a lot. Still, all in all, I'm willing to drive a little further to the Quarterfield Road Walmart to make major shopping trips. It's a matter of price and I know that I can get fresh, quality food there. And if you use SNAP or WIC, I won't know because that's nobody's business but yours.

Customer service usually hold it for me until I can pick it up. Their Pharmacy team is amazing from pharmacist assistant manager, Miss Theresa Theresa, pharmacist manager, Mr. Sesay, Miss Melody, Pharmacy staffer Miss Sade, Pharmacy staffer. The ambience of this store is amazing. I love the fact that everyone is so friendly even if you walk in the Giant and don't know anyone they are all here to help. They even donate their food to any of the homeless who are in need of food that come in the store and sometimes can solicit customers for a dollar or something. Usually one of the Customer Service people will take that homeless person over to the side and bring them a hot meal and or allow them to get maybe three items that they need and that Giant Stafford will pay for it so that they can have something to drink and something to eat. I think that that is beautiful. This Giant is completely is completely about kindness, compassion, and Community. This is my favorite giant food store and I love the fact that they're always supporting some charity Saint Jude American Heart Association feed the Hungary donating to their local food pantries helping kids with school supplies. I love that they have a raffle every school year beginning of the school year. I have one maybe 3 raffles and I donated all of the materials back to the Giant because I no longer have a child who's in school he's now at university so when one year one a basket full of school supplies which I donate it right back to the Giant the following year I want Thanksgiving all turkey Thanksgiving box dinner which I donated it back to the Giant because I didn't need it and then one raffle I won tickets to see the Orioles play baseball and I donated those tickets back to the Giant and they could give them to whomever they want. I told them the 251st person that walked through the store could have those tickets and they did that and I am assuming that they enjoyed themselves at the game. I don't know. I did not go. I just love this Giant kindness Community compassion.

While my oil change was completed, I was informed that there was nothing wrong with the tire. This was not accurate, as the tire continues to lose air. When I questioned the diagnosis, I was told I would need to wait again until all of the vehicles that arrived after me had been serviced. I requested to speak with a manager and was directed to the Auto Care Center manager, Terrance. Unfortunately, he was rude and condescending during our conversation. He stated that my service had already been completed and that I would have to wait like everyone else. However, my service was not actually completed, as I was never called to the register to review or pay for the work performed. I am disappointed with both the handling of my tire concern and the level of customer service I received. I expected a more thorough inspection of a tire covered under warranty and more professional treatment when attempting to resolve the issue.

    Coincidentally, had some good discussions about grocery stores with various friends on FB messenger…read morethis afternoon & next in alphabet series representing 2024 is W is for Weis Markets. For W, this is my 2nd Yelp review in this current alphabet series. See my 3-star Wegmans Columbia review I wrote recently. 2024 was year I went to Weis most frequently, but I've still occasionally go here maybe twice in 2026 so far. In 2024 Weis was my most frequent grocery store, but I was less likely to come here over time as I had some issues with this location. All Saints Road location is pretty similar on severity of my issues with them, but I'm far more likely to go to US 1 location as generally more convenient. Since living in Russett in western Anne Arundel County, in 2021-2023 I was going to my local Shoppers most often as well as Aldi. I never particularly liked Shoppers but it was convenience of proximity. By 2025 I realized Wal-Mart near me was pretty good in some aspects for groceries even though they've annoyed me at times too, but they are still superior to Shoppers. From July 2023 to July 2024, I had free Wendy's for a year for going to a grand remodel opening of a location in Columbia, & my closest Wendy's is across street on Gorman from Weis. So, I'd get lunch at Wendy's then do grocery shopping at Weis more often starting in late 2023. My Weis business further increased after New Year 2024 when Anne Arundel Co government banned plastic bags all together, which I thought was ridiculous, so for a long time I boycotted going to grocery stores in AA (as well as PG Co) & would drive across county line to Howard Co & did almost all my grocery business with them. Howard charges 5 cents for plastic bag, & I still bring my reusable bags as I don't want to pay a nickel for a plastic bag. I just didn't like AA County banned them all together. I made an exception for my local Maryland City Aldi as no bags was their private company's policy, but it wasn't county government forcing customers & businesses to change their ways. By 2025, I eased up on my AA County grocery boycott as my opinion of Weis cooled off, it was a lot further to next closest store in Howard & more convenient to give Wal-Mart a try less than a mile from my home & Weis is about 3.5 miles each way. Shopping experience fairly easy, not too stressful. Produce variety was pretty good, & it was generally fresh but not perfect either. A good variety of meats. My biggest complaint was seafood at Weis. It was pretty lacking in terms of variety. In 2024 I had a big complaint with their pricing of salmon. So I don't recall exact pricing of salmon per pound, but let's say it was $10.99/lb. They'd have huge 1.5-2 pounds. I'd just want like 3/4 of lb, which would be about $8.75 total, but they wouldn't have anything close to this size. So, they would have these precut salmon, which were 2 5 oz cuts or 10 oz total. It was a bit short of 12 oz, but I might've accepted for convenience. However, price was a flat $10. I said price is $10.99/lb, & this is $16/lb (which is absolutely ridiculous more than most expensive Whole Foods, which I believe was a ripoff $14.99/lb there). Rude woman working for seafood said prices were set the way they were. I had her cut about 3/4 lbs or so & weigh. We did that dance on a few occasions. She'd complain about doing her job saying it was tough to get measurement right. A couple of times there was no one even around to help me. I think I just conceded I wasn't going to get any seafood, & I'd just get beef/other meats, but I really shouldn't have to do concede on what I'm eating. One time I asked to speak with manager about this. He was relatively nice & empathetic, & seafood area got a little better. I didn't think salmon was always fresh, kind of slimy. I have better luck at my local Aldi or Wal-Mart for quality of salmon. One time I was trying to take something back for a refund in May 2025. I often look at food expiration before I buy. I had bought turkey bacon from Weis maybe a few days earlier, & I was pissed as I realized expiration date was day BEFORE I bought. I bought on Sunday, May 4, 2025, & it expired May 3. This was obviously unacceptable. So, finally on Thursday, May 15 I got around to taking about this expired turkey bacon with my receipt. Manager let me exchange w/ other turkey bacon. I acknowledged I normally check expirations but happened to have not check, but was annoyed Weis had expired food there in 1st place. I requested for inconvenience of me driving 3.5 miles, 10 minutes each way to give like gift card for their fault of expired food. He said they stopped giving gift cards for things. So once again annoyed. Few times I went it was just self checkout, no checkout people, which I don't like. They said last hour or 2, but I don't like all self checkout. 3/18 Update: Salmon actually 10 oz $12, not $10. $10.99/lb is normal price. See pics.

Older lady with a big cart full of groceries hopelessly trying to check herself out, while the associate just sat and watched her check out. I asked her " excuse me maam did you want to check yourself out?" She replied no frustratedly. The associate was like " we close registers at 9pm". I asked does the store close at 9pm? His response and blank stare was like " ummmm nooooo" as he cluelessly didn't get it. All these corporations have lost their way. Most people don't like self checkout and it shouldnt be the only option. Just for this encounter... never going back. Not like they care...
