This supermarket opened recently and it's a good choice for some things, but you have to know your…read moreprices! They have some items that are hard to find (imported cheeses, some wines and liquors), but mot of their items are not the cheapest. It's also not that big of a supermarket, so you will probably want to stop at a couple of markets that are close to here that have lower prices for your everyday items. It's OK, and glad to have more choices in the area.

With inflation the way it is everywhere, I am pleasantly surprised to say that for many of the…read moreproducts that I regularly shop for, Carrefour recently has the best prices. Competition in the area for supermarkets has increased, with as many as 4 new supermarkets opening in the last 5 months. Most of these new supermarkets purport to have "wholesale" prices, yet they charge more for most of the items as compared to Carrefour. So I guess I have to give Carrefour credit (and a better rating).

Carrefour is a multinational supermarket chain that got its start in France. Brazil is its second…read morelargest market, but they can be found all over Europe & Asia as well as in South America. This particular store is a blessing & a curse. They carry some international items that you can't find in other supermarkets and the store is huge. They carry all the normal grocery items as well as housewares, which are usually priced reasonably. The home appliances (refrigerators, washers etc.) and electronic items are usually on the expensive side compared to other stores. Make sure that you pay attention to the prices because sale items can be very cheap, but non-sale items are usually much more expensive compared to competitors. This location also has a gas station, and this is really a great reason to come here, because they always have the lowest prices in the metropolitan area.

Back to do some shopping at this very clean supermarket. What I really like about shopping here is…read morethat they have some of the freshest tropical fruits and vegetables. They also have some of the best selection of good-quality cheeses that you just won't find anywhere else here (one of the drawbacks of living in this part of Brazil). I'd recommend shopping here if you're in the area.

They also have a good amount of imported items that you won't find anywhere else. If you are a price-conscious shopper, you can also get some very good deals here.
