This
is
the
worst
Continente
supermarket
in
Lisbon.
To
start,
the
selection
of
items
here
is
extremely
poor
and
essential
items
are
often
nowhere
to
be
found.
The
produce
section
in
particular
is
one
of
the
most
notable
lowlights.
The
prices
are
markedly
higher
here
as
they
indeed
are
taking
advantage
of
their
location
and
proximity
to
nearby
touristic
attractions;
a
disgraceful,
hostile
attitude
toward
the
community
and
a
detrimental
action
toward
locals
who
already
have
few
options
in
the
area.
This
being
said,
be
forewarned
and
expect
scant
promotional
(sale)
prices.
This
location
often
has
a
huge
line
that
ends
up
snaking
well
beyond
the
checkout
area
and
ends
up
blocking
access
to
the
shelves
which
are
frequently
bare
and
disheveled
and
not
restocked
in
a
timely
manner.
To
top
it
all
off,
management
does
not
turn
on
the
air
conditioning
on
hot
days
and
if
they
do,
it
is
for
a
few
minutes
and
then
it
is
turned
off
again;
I
experienced
this
many
times.
An
obvious
cost
cutting
measure
that
makes
you
question
where
they
are
putting
all
the
profit
that
they
no
doubt
are
making
off
of
this
place
because
it
is
certainly
not
being
reinvested
in
improving
the
customer
experience.
Having
said
all
this,
i
do
not
recommend
the
Continente
Martim
Moniz
location
at
all
and
if
you
can
avoid
it,
do
so
unless
you
enjoy
trying
shop
in
a
hot
and
stuffy
store
while
swerving
through
a
bunch
of
customers
and
workers,
ultimately
not
finding
most
of
what
you
need,
waiting
in
a
long
line
that
does
not
move
as
fast
as
claimed
by
the
moniter
directing
customers
to
the
register,
all
while
paying
a
lovely,
unnecessary,
dare
I
say,
"greedy"
premium
for
the
experience.
Please
note
I
have
never
had
an
issue
with
the
workers,
they
have
always
been
at
the
very
least
adequate
and
competent
and
many
times
even
nice
and
pleasant.
The
finger
of
blame
for
the
shameful
fiasco
that
is
this
store
is
pointed
squarely
at
the
company
for
mounting
this
charade
of
a
supermarket
which
at
best
overcharges
you
for
your
shopping
and
at
worst
was
purposely
placed
by
the
company
in
this
manner
as
a
cruel
joke
towards
all
who
have
to
work
and
shop
here.
