I'm all for keeping business local. I love community based/supported agriculture groups, co-ops,…read morefarmers markets, and the like. While trying to find more of these among the community of new london, I found Pizello Brothers. Easily accessible from one of new london's most well traveled roadways, this market is the place to shop if you need a large scale of grocery items, or are open to a changing selection of many great things. The parking is in a loding dock area, and the steps take you up to the retail store. Many of the local businesses and restaurants source their grocery and supplies from here, and whatever is left over is sold at market cost which I have found is routinely cheaper than anywhere else. The perimeter of the store is cold storage, with a really great selection of olives, cheeses and fruits, along with premade meals and sides. I compare this to a small scale Costco of sorts, they have many things but it's usually not portioned for an individual or a couple. The middle has dry goods, potatoes, onions, spices, and cleaning supplies, along with many goya brand products. The front counter has more spices, a place to freshly grind hard cheeses, and an area for marked down produce, canned goods, and specials. I have always been pleased with the quality, service, and prompt response of staff to questions. I would love to see them carry some more milk alternatives and meats, but I know that's not really the scale they're catering to. Wonderful location, excellent prices, and quality products make this grocer a must have stop on my weekly shopping route.

Well I think I need to change my profile to Shopping Cart reviewer as this is another review of a…read moreshopping cart or in Aldi's case - lacks of a shopping cart. Went to the cart area with my quarter to get a cart. There are two rows so the first one Inn n out the quarter in and tried to pull the cart back. Looked like someone had jammed it into the other carts so I couldn't pull it out. Took my quarter out and went to the adjacent row and tried to pull that one out. Same thing, the cart was jammed in with the seat area flipped up just enough that it was catching on the ones behind it. Went back to the first one and tried to reach in to move the piece son it would release but to no avail. So went inside cart-less. So they didn't have the items we were looking for so I guess I didn't need a cart after all. Was in a hurry, otherwise I would have talked to an associate about the cart issue.

It made me very thankful for the grocery stores in Colorado! I hear their new store concepts will NOT have the "store within a store" concept, which is great.
