I moved to Brown Deer in December and have shopped at many local Pick N Save food stores in past 20 years. The Brown Deer Pick ‘N Save is a bummer on many levels. The staff looks depressed; hard to find any of them with a smile on their face. When I couldn’t find bagged oranges I tracked down a produce person who said he’d check. I went back to get his response and he stated«We don’t have enough people working here…» assumedly to stock produce. This is Memorial Day Weekend which in retail is a big weekend. I spoke with another person who was stocking on their knees as if praying for some relief. I asked why P & S doesn’t provide a small stool but they just shrugged in pain. I never seen anyone in charge around to chat up which gives the impression that management thinks this is the best Brown Deer has to offer. I suggest customer feedback on a large scale — comment cards — be placed throughout the store. Otherwise, I too will follow other BD residents who’ve migrated north or westward to Mequon or Menomonee Falls to shop.

meh. This used to be a decent store but their prices are just so-so and it appears that the store is always short staffed. The best thing about this store is the attached liquor department which has a respectable selection of spirits at decent prices. The chain appears to be high on hype and marketing, and light on substance. Within the last year I’ve been handed my receipt with prices on it and the cashier tells me how much I saved. Since I know I would have saved more up the street at a competitor, I didn’t sweat the details. Problems like this are not worker driven or even driven by the way the store looks(which is fine enough) — they are driven by management who has gotten away from what a salary for a grocer should look like.

I’m surprised I haven’t reviewed this place, much less even checked-in here. Maybe it was to save myself from any possible embarrassment of checking into a Pick N Save. Idk. No matter. Point here is, I’m happy with their selection of products. An upscale grocery store it’s not, but their prices are fine and so is the selection and quality of their food. I’ve been here numerous times since moving nearby, and I have been always happy with my purchases. They’re always well stocked and usually have what I want and what I’m looking for. Sure convenience is a factor but I don’t mind doing my bi-weekly shopping here until they give me a reason not to.

You don’t save at Pick! I wouldn’t typically pen a review for a grocery store chain. But, my last few last resort visits have lead me to throw Pick N Save in the ring and box it out. I don’t know what’s up with this store, but it is far from it’s television advertising claim that everything is «Fresh.» In fact, their Fresh Perks card is a joke. My biggest complaint is their produce department. Poor quality and many items are often out of stock. They used to have pre-packaged salads. A produce stocker claimed that they’ve ordered them for weeks and have not received them. I think they’re just lazy. I’ve made a habit to check expiration dates on all meat and dairy products. There have been several times when the items offered have expired or expiring the next day. Come on, guys! Rotate your stock pile and stop trying to poison us! In the end, I will only go here if I’m desperate. It’s certainly not my favorite place. Oh– and it’s over priced. It needs a lot of help and change.

Slowly but surely, I’ve been setting the stage to break up with Pick n Save. I’ve been spending less time in their presence, ignoring their foolish games(i.e. Can you say Monopoly complete and utter b.s.?) and even started seeing someone else. Yesterday, my sister sent a text asking if I would pick up limes and mint on my way over for an Olympian-themed gathering. So I says to her I says, of course — and for the record, I like where this is headed. Only for the factor of convenience, I stop at this PnS. Alas, they have no mint, and wait — here’s the kicker — they also have NOLIMES. How does a grocery store NOTHAVELIMES? So, I’ve concluded, there is no need to delay the inevitable any longer. Pick n Save on Green Bay Road, you may have a really hot butcher, but that is not going to be enough to keep us together. I am a woman of substance, and I need more than that. And well hello there, Woodman’s…you sure are looking nice today.

Don’t hate on the Pick N Save. Aside from it’s unfortunate name, it’s a quality grocery store, regular sized, and it will get you what you need. It’s no Trader Joe’s, but your cart will fill with savings.(No I don’t work here or even live in the area.) More importantly, it’s right next to the liquor store.

This pick n save has gone way downhill. Now I won’t go here unless it is picking up one small thing that I need — hopefully it is a frozen item. Produce selection gets worse by the minute. Recently, I needed one avocado to complete my recipe. I ran over to this store quick and the avocados looked TERRIBLE. I bought three in hopes that one would not be rotten. Alas, all three were black and gross. I returned them to the store, they apologized, refunded, etc. They don’t carry many higher quality/healthy brands. Great store for mac n cheese, frozen pizza, miller lite, oreos…

This store is quite alright. It’s kind of small and kind of outdated. But the few times I’ve been there, I’ve been able to get what I need and not have to wait long in check-out lines. The people working have been friendly, and they have baggers, which was pretty much never the case at the Pick ‘n Save I used to live near and hated hated hated going to because it was generally such a miserable experience. So, not my regular grocery store, but I have no problems going here for those in-between trips to pick up a few items.
