I have a love for all things Trader Joe's and today even more which I didn't think was possible…read more Yesterday went for my usual shopping and saw someone filling carts with all sorts of goodies. He was marking the top of the items. I asked him if it was for food distribution. He said yes it is something TJ has been doing for years and they give items totaling in the millions annually. So good!

TRADER JOE'S @ HILLCREST…read more Parking here is honestly a massacre. It's extremely busy and incredibly packed, and with so many different stores and restaurants around, there just isn't much parking available. It's genuinely hard to find a spot. Luckily, my friend and I managed to grab one pretty quickly after seeing a family get into their car, we caught it right in time. We ended up going to this Trader Joe's, and the first thing I noticed was how all the floral items are displayed outside. I actually love that because it's the first thing you see when you walk up. One thing I don't love is the placement of the carts. It's annoying they're kind of hidden behind the flowers, off to the side near Ralphs, which doesn't feel intuitive at all. Once you walk in, the store itself is definitely small. I usually come in with a grocery list, and bananas were the first thing I saw. All the snacks are also immediately to your right by the entrance. This Hillcrest location is just really tiny, and compared to other Trader Joe's I've been to, the aisles here are way smaller. There are so many people, and you constantly have people on your left and right, squeezing through. Their produce, however, is great. We ended up getting their crisp apples, and they were huge. The size was amazing, and overall the products were fresh fruit, veggies, snacks, everything you'd expect. We also had to return some lemonade we didn't like, and the staff was super nice about it. Their return policy is definitely a plus. Overall, the experience inside was great, but I'd recommend only stopping by this location if you absolutely need to. Parking is a nightmare and it's extremely busy, so this isn't a Trader Joe's I'd choose unless it's an emergency.

I've been coming to Ralph's for the past 15 years. It takes ONE manager to bring down the quality…read moreof customer service! I arrived at 12:54 am to make a quick run for water. I noticed the doors were already locked but the sign says 1am. Ray, the night manager comes out and says they're closed. Uhhhhhh your hours outside say otherwise. In a disrespectful, ghetto manner, flashes his watch that says 12:54 in neon green lights, and keeps repeating they're closed. I asked him, so the sign outside says 12:54 am is their closing hours? He used his large body to hover over the door and tower over me and say we're closed in a disrespectful way. Im a petite woman in her late 40's; that could make someone feel a little threatened. My 11 year old daughter saw his demeanor and picked up on how rude this guy was and told me to leave necause she didnt feel safe. What's worst is that he is the MANAGEMENT!!!! Oh my, oh my where is the etiquette, the courtesy to apologize and say they closed early or that the registers closed at a certain time? I love Ralph's product quality, enough to drive across town, but the management with Ray at night was absolutely disdainful and left a bad impression.This guy was straight up rude and had the audacity to get in my face to say we're closed with a smirk, belittling me. No, no, no. That's not how you treat others. Manager Alejandra, if you read this, dont kill your customer service to save a buck. Its not worth it. Get Ruben back at this store. It thrived before all the way until closing. These people are probably not paid enough. Ps: I decided to pull over to the gas station for water and guess who i see near his car, right at 1am....Mr. Manager Ray. Wow! I get it, you want to be out the door at 1, but at least have more tactic to go about it with customers. I'll be reaching further to the company to ask about their closing procedures.

Stopped by while I was in the area at this particular Aldi! It's located in the same shopping…read morecenter as Smart & Final, businesses, and other eateries. Super convenient one stop shop location. - Plenty of parking, even on a Saturday - Spacious, clean, and your typical Aldi - simple, organized, and well-stocked. - Checkout lines are still classic Aldi (aka long), but thankfully self-checkout saved me even with a full cart. - Staff always seem to be restocking and keeping things tidy. Pro tips: - Bring a quarter for your cart! Luckily I've had friendly patrons share their quarter with me when I forget. - Don't forget reusable bags! My staples: - Fresh produce - some good deals on fruits and veggies - Nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and freeze-dried snacks - Frozen fruits and veggies - Household finds (yes, even a rug once) and cleaners - Drinks (water, sparkling, energy) Not everything is cheaper, but I do appreciate when I see great deals! I'd check Aldi before Smart & Final and Grocery Outlet nearby. 3.5 stars but it didn't give me that option. Doh!
