There
are
some
great
employees
at
this
Giant,
exceptionally
fine
people
in
numerous
departments
who
work
very
hard
and
who
I've
come
to
know
over
the
years
and
seeing
them
is
a
big
reason
I
come
back
weekly.
So
far
as
I
can
tell,
the
store
is
also
generally
clean
and
well
stocked,
and
it's
conveniently
located
for
me.
But
the
computer
systems,
between
the
e-coupons
and
checkout
scanners,
routinely
have
errors,
presumably
programming
errors,
generally
in
the
store's
favor.
Perhaps
not
everyone
does,
but
I
review
the
receipts
fairly
closely
(but
frequently
not
until
I'm
home
and
have
more
time)
and
generally
catch
the
problems.
If
these
things
were
rare
it'd
be
one
thing,
but
they
happen
frequently,
including
last
week
and
this
week
(this
week
there
was
a
great
4/$10
strawberry/blueberry
offer
for
which
I
bought
the
qualifying
items,
only
to
reach
the
car
to
find
I
had
been
charged
$16.30).
The
customer
service
folks
see
me
so
frequently
I
long
ago
wore
out
my
welcome
with
them
and
I
dread
having
to
go
to
the
customer
service
desk
(so
I
try,
in
instances
where
I
can,
to
phone
the
888
corporate
customer
care
line
for
help),
where
also
there's
frequently
a
line
as
there's
only
one
staffer.
I
also
realize
the
computer
issues
are
not
their
fault,
so
it's
probably
as
frustrating
for
them
as
for
me.
It's
great
that
Giant
offers
things
like
e-coupons,
flexible
rewards,
and
other
special
deals,
but
clearly
they
don't
have
the
computer
end
of
things
satisfactorily
nailed
down.
I
realized
on
getting
home
from
the
store
this
week
they
gave
me
Boar's
Head
turkey
instead
of
the
Giant
turkey
I
expressly
asked
for
(b/c
we
prefer
the
taste
of
the
Giant
brand),
last
week
there
was
yet
another
receipt
error.
Giant
offers
lots
of
platitudes
about
trying
to
get
it
right,
keeping
the
customer
happy,
etc.,
but
the
fact
of
the
matter
is
that
if
you're
a
discerning
customer
who's
not
interested
in
this
or
that
error
every
week,
you're
best
off
shopping
elsewhere.

Giant
update.
Today's
pricing
flaw
was
on
Crest
toothpaste,
that
absolutely
was
tagged
with
a
digital
2/$3
tag,
of
which
I
took
a
photo
and
even
asked
the
store
stocker
as
I
was
purchasing
it
if
it
was
right,
that
rang
up
2/$6.
After
a
good
~8
minute
"conversation"
with
the
customer
service
clerk
and
manager
(who
said
"she'd
look
into
it,"
but
I've
been
told
that
countless
times
and
the
errors
continue),
where
they
had
to
walk
to
the
aisle
to
see
despite
the
photo
I
took,
they
"gave
me"
(as
if
they
were
doing
me
a
favor)
the
deal
that
they
were
advertising.
Yes
I
got
angry
and
no
I
don't
think
it's
the
employees'
fault,
it's
a
corporate
computer
system
generated
issue.
But
it
happens
every
week.
I
continue
to
shop
at
the
store
solely
because
it's
close
to
the
house;
but
the
constant
pricing
errors,
which
amounts
to
corporate
incompetence,
really
anger
me
.
.
.
.
But
a
final
note.
On
getting
home
from
the
store,
I
immediately
phoned
the
Giant
corporate
customer
service
(a
consumer
affairs
person
answered)
and
I
spoke
with
the
most
astute,
dead-on
accurate
customer
service
person
I
have
ever
spoken
with
about
anything.
He
totally
got
the
issue,
how
it's
problematic
for
the
consumer
and
the
store,
etc.
I
so
totally
appreciated
everything
he
had
to
say,
and
as
I
started
with
above,
Giant
does
have
some
exceptional
people
working
for
it.
I
left
that
original
review
in
February
2023.
One
might
have
hoped
some
of
these
issues
would
have
been
resolved.
Nope.
I
visited
the
store
yesterday,
6/4/2023,
to
get
the
latest
correction/refund
because
the
advertised
4/$12
berries
instead
rang
up
as
$17.52.
If
one
is
really
wedded
to
getting
accurate
product
pricing
(in
these
inflationary
days,
who
isn't?)
then
unless
you
are
prepared
to
diligently
study
your
receipt,
it's
probably
best
not
to
go
to
Giant
(though
I
don't
know
if
other
vendors
are
better).
Recently
also
I
sent
a
customer
service
e-mail
to
which
they
failed
to
respond,
as
they
seem
no
longer
to
respond
to
any
of
my
e-mails.
