I walked into Hannaford expecting a quick, normal trip--grab a drink, pay, and leave. Nothing…read morecomplicated. But somehow, that simple plan turned into one of the most unnecessarily frustrating shopping experiences I've had in a while. It wasn't the store layout, or the lines, or even the prices overall--it was the self-checkout situation that managed to mess up something as small as 88 cents and still leave a bad impression. So there I was at the self-checkout, scanning my items like usual. Everything seemed fine at first. The machine did its little beeps, the total popped up, and I paid without thinking much of it. But afterward, I noticed the total didn't match what I expected. At first I thought maybe I misread a price or grabbed the wrong item--but nope. After actually checking the receipt, there it was: an extra 88 cents that didn't make any sense. Now, 88 cents isn't life-changing money, obviously. But that's not really the point. It's the fact that the system--this supposedly efficient, modern, "convenient" self-checkout robot--managed to get something so basic wrong. And there's no easy way to question it in the moment unless you want to call someone over and hold up the whole line. So you either let it go or deal with the awkward process of proving a machine messed up. What makes it worse is how avoidable it feels. That 88 cents could've gone toward something else--like literally another drink. That's the annoying part. It's not just "oh well, small mistake." It's the fact that I walked out knowing I paid for something I didn't actually get, and that small difference could've added up to something tangible, even if it's just a second bottle or can. And honestly, these self-checkout systems are supposed to make things smoother, but moments like this do the opposite. Instead of speeding things up, they shift all the responsibility onto the customer while still being prone to errors. If a cashier made that mistake, at least there's a clear person to talk to. When it's a machine, it just feels like you're arguing with a wall. It also makes you wonder how often this kind of thing happens. If I noticed 88 cents, how many people don't notice? Those tiny amounts can add up over time, and it starts to feel less like a one-time glitch and more like a system that isn't as reliable as it should be. Even if it's unintentional, it's still frustrating from a customer perspective. In the end, it's not about the money--it's about the experience. A quick stop turned into irritation over something that shouldn't have happened in the first place. And yeah, it sticks with you more than it should, because it's such an easy thing to get right. All I wanted was my drink, and instead I left thinking about how I could've had another one if the system had just worked properly. Ps im never shopping here again( I mean I will but you get the point)

You can check out the games for a measly $5, much like one would check out DVDs (RIP Blockbuster) or library books even. Or even better: you can play the games all located in the back shelf for free - right in the vicinity - which can be great if you got some free time on your hands on a lazy Sunday. Right after having brunch at the Diner, we stopped by here and played several rounds of Exploding Kittens. Highly recommend that game. Many other games also to try out. The owner was so friendly; when we walked in, he asked us if it was our first time and immediately showed us the free games in the back to play. My only complaint is that there is a faint smell that I can only know too well: boy smell. It's not the most pleasant smell, but I suppose it could also be worse. I feel like the business could use an air freshener. Maybe I'm just fussy. Nevertheless, this is still a good spot to have fun!

I've been going there on and off for years and years and I am so happy it is still in business. I have a plethora of different objects from Woodware - from a Santa tree carving to a wooden bunny ornament to a Mbira - everything is hand crafted and as beautiful as can be. The owner is super friendly and always warmly welcomes us into the store. His father used to do most of the wood carvings, and still does a good amount, but I noticed last time I was there that some of the wood trinkets were imported. Fine by me though! You can definitely feel the amount of love and care that went into each wood product. Every piece is different in its own unique way and that is so very cool. They sell everything - wooden bowls, salad tongs, chairs, tables, wood "paintings," chopping boards, rocking chairs, etc. They also sell beds, mattresses, lamps, and other regular household items. If you are looking for a special, one of a kind gift, definitely check out Woodware!
