I myself was made to unload and haul them into the store by myself while he stood and watched I was a great employee for Gurpreet aka Dhillon for about 6 months during those 6 months he made me work long hours with no breaks most days i got called in early in the morning and wouldn't get out until almost closing time if not closing time mind you id never have a set time on when I was able to leave he wouldn't give me a schedule despite me asking several times expected me to wait by the phone and come in immediately when he called me if I didn't come in right away I got and attitude the whole day almost everyday I would come home and cry to my significant other because he would literally tell me I'm stupid and say he was superior to me as well as other hurtful things sometimes he would even make inappropriate gestures about my body as well causing me to feel even more uncomfortable i would cry at work trying not to let my customers see me trying to save some embarrassment i literally dreaded going to work for him everyday I loved my customers though and being a mother of 2 babies i needed the money and didn't have a vehicle to travel to get another job mr. eds was within walking distance of the place i was renting and literally the only place around at that point that was hiring i felt stuck i was stuck he knew it thankfully i now have a great job that i love but i got my w2s today from when i was working for him and not only is the amount i made wrong he never payed in for federal or took anything out so now I don't know what to do its going to take forever to sort this out and i need this money for a house for my children as if the stuff he put me through before wasn't enough

If you speak up the pharmacy workers will threaten you with not providing the service. They may call you names such as, "you are really a piece of work". Lastly, they will flat out tell you, "go somewhere else next time". My advice, don't go to Meijer pharmacy; they do not care about the customer or providing great customer care.

Unfortunately, this is the only store and gas station on the east side of Hubbard Lake. Over the…read moreyears, due to the hard hit economy around the lake, this place has hung on by it's fingernails...it used to be a standard lake-town grocery with lots of cold beer, aisles of chips, cookies, candies, and marshmellows, and a big freezer case of ice cream. These days, I literally get a little sad walking in. Literally half the shelves are empty now and most of the items in stock have dust on them. It looks like the merchandise has been sitting around since last season, at best. I always try and support the little guy and we go here whenever we can, but they have less and less so it's tough to find anything you need here. Hopefully it'll hang in a few more years until the economy picks up again.

Cucumbers, apples, tomatoes, melons, lettuce you name it. It's there and the size is great! Better than you're average Meijer or Walmart produce. They even have bird and animal feed! Trying to get some meat? Boy are they packin! Huge portions and options: steak, chicken, pork, burgers, beef and all things poultry. Impressed was an understatement. If you need some spirits they got what you need! Pints to fifths and more. They have beer, snacks, and other common food staples. It's not your Meijer but what you need food wise is there, definitely give it a go! Worth it! I was very impressed and am sad I don't have one closer to home.

Perch's (right on S.US23 = convenient) is a small family owned grocery store with recent improvements, they just added a cute coffee shop inside the store. Nice touch. The meat counter is very special! Great guys work back there and are eager to help and make small talk while you wait. The meat is the best quality in the area and very reasonably priced. They will de-bone your chicken, split it and skin it with no extra charge. They have a good selection of quality home grown produce as you can see in my pics. Huge brussel sprouts! Best part? They carry Plath's bacon and ham! Nice and clean and I never smell meat rotting like some grocery stores (you know the smell). Very busy at times especially during lunch because they sell homemade lunch items like sandwiches, salads and soups, homemade brownies, carrot cake and lots of other stuff. I just like the small hometown feel serving up impeccable service! Can be pricey but they run good sales, I got a pound of freshly sliced Eckrich (however you spell that!) Hard Salami for $2.99, they had coupons right at the counter running with the sale. It was delicious! Good Beer run place, too!

Love the convenience from parking to shopping. Never crowded and always fully stocked. Also, very clean. I find Meijer to be horrible as far as crowded and low staff at registers. $$$ Aldi less expensive, except for brand names. Walmart is a really good match price wise but again long walk and crowded - too much for me at times. The problem is the food, if it's not brand name (very expensive here); it is mostly poor ingredients such as Aldi brand stuffed white sandwich cookies, you know the brand. I had to throw them away they were so inferior tasting to the real thing. I don't care for their watered down canned pumpkin. But if you look there can be goodies here and there. Even when it says organic I find the taste "off." But then, I grew up on Whole Foods so I am spoiled. Some items are definitely way cheaper than other stores such as basics like produce. For some reason they don't carry skim milk in a gallon? But their coffee cream is excellent. Their organic corn chips are delicious. Frozen crinkle fries are very light and not oily. They have a good cheese selection. Bread tastes a little bland but not a bunch of bad ingredients - so good for me. Also I use their cleaning products but they seem somewhat watered down. I don't care because well? ...way cheaper here. Many times I skip the larger stores so I can get in and out quickly, a huge plus for me at Aldi. So hit or miss but a must.
