I also look forward to their heirloom pumpkin options each fall. Located in Porters Vale, there is plenty of parking and lighting in the evening. This store is super ginormous, encompassing more than just groceries - Meijer offers clothing, shoes, garden supplies and gasoline. The employees are extremely patient and helpful. In addition, they are open to requests to include offerings from local businesses. This is my new Meijer.

One of my daughters friends ordered flowers from a local floral shop & when she got the bouquet home she noticed the flowers were in horrible condition and some of the flowers looked brown & wilted. They closed early & weren't about to help. I took them to Stracks on calumet for her, while she was getting her hair done. Even though Tracey had a full day due to Valparaiso's homecoming, she asked us to come back in a half an hour and promised to fix them. She did more than that! They looked absolutely beautiful she refreshed them, rearrange them and even added some gold accents! The bouquet was truly beautiful! And she honestly saved the day!

FOLKS, WE'RE GETTING RIPPED OFF BY THE NEW OWNERS. They came in and made all of these supposedly…read more"great" changes. They have price tags that say "You save" X amOunt of dollars. The "regular" prices on MANY of the itmes are NOT the "regular" price. They're jacked up, to make it look like you're getting a deal. They want us to think we're getting a deal. It's a total joke. They're slowly and very methodically raising prices, hoping we won't notice. I've HAD it with their BS. My wife went there today, May 8th and lettuce, NOT organic lettuce, but REGULAR lettuce was almost $4.00 a head. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? $4 A HEAD!! It seems as though all of their prices are going up. Yes, they run sales but many of the sales aren't really "sales." They're playing a psychological game with all of us, all the while raping us with higher prices. They want you to think their new "tages" mean we're saving money. WHAT A JOKE. We've had it with them. Aldi here we come. SMH.

I'd say at least once a month they have a deal so remarkable that I scamper over here to load up on that item. Last week they had Old Orchard apple juice, fairly big jug for 98¢. I came in just for that. Bought a dozen. I get a little sheepish like I'm taking advantage, but the clerks are glad to see you and glad you're getting a great deal. No need to worry if you aren't picking up your whole week's worth of groceries, they couldn't be nicer. They also always have a nice selection of seasonal items wether that's pumpkins and mums in the fall or Christmas wreaths and poinsettias after Thanksgiving. Especially if you have errands in Calumet Ave, be sure to stop by!

Folks, they have raised the prices there and at Strack's to unbelieveable highs. Who pays $8.00 for 6 "half" pieces of "frozen" corn on the cob??? You BETTER watch out. They pout these stickers on products, trying to "CON" you into thinking you're getting a good price, compared to their "regular" price. BULL. They have been slowly raising prices on hundred, maybe thousands of items at BOTH stores, hoping we won't notice. NOTHING will change until we all stop shopping there. If you don't care about "peeing" your money away, keep shoppping there. We're done with BOTH stores. Aldi and Meijers here we come. It sickens me to see them SCREWING us and all the while, they're laughing all the way to the bank.

No alarms went off and the system still let me proceed to payment unhindered. There's a huge Christmas vibe right now. Lots of decor for reasonable prices. I picked up a nice "Joy" sign for my front porch for $8.99. Unless you're hitting up thrift stores, you won't beat this price until the after-season sales begin.
