Kroger

Still terrible! It’s 8:19pm. There are 4 people waiting in front of me and they won’t open another register. The lady in front of me is getting ugly so I don’t have to. Ridiculous!

Gotta love Kroger! Well at least I do.
For this location:
–Private lot/​free parking
–Vast selection of items
–Fresh fruit and vegetables
–Fresh meats and seafood
–Pretty nice wine selections
–Most of the cash registers are manned (which is kinda a big deal in a grocery store!)
–CLEAN
–Shelves are usually well-​stocked
–They carry organic products
–There’s a pharmacy, bakery, deli, starbucks and gas station
–Free WiFi
…and the list goes on.
Most importantly, the prices are very reasonable!

This is by far my favorite place to shop in Auburn/​Opelika. The store is well-​organized, clean, and easy to get in and out of.

Wonderful selection of products. This store is the largest grocery store in the area and their prices are really great. I love this store because in the event of an issue the store management is very eager to fix the problem and see that customers are satisfied.
They also have a monitor that ensures quick check out. When a large amount of people come to check out it prompts anther register to open.

The first time I walked into this new Kroger at Tigertown, I almost peed myself. I walked up and down the spacious aisles with my mouth wide-​open like some kind of yokel. It is by no means the nicest grocery store I’ve ever seen (try Wegmans for that), but it is the newest and nicest in the Auburn-​Opelika area, and I was transfixed. First of all, this place is huge.
There are about 7 aisles that I completely skipped because I simply didn’t need them. A lot of stuff that doesn’t exactly belong in a grocery store, but that’s okay. They even sell gas outside.
The highlight for me was, of course, the Natural Foods aisle, which is larger than any health food store in the area. I was giddy with the amount of products present here that I haven’t seen anywhere else in town. I found tempeh in the refrigerated section of this aisle and almost yelled «TEMPEH! THEY HAVE TEMPEH!» They also have just about everything that Seventh Generation and Giovanni have ever manufactured, as well as pet food, diapers, etc. etc. etc.
There is a Starbucks that I can’t exactly imaging anyone going to hang out at for a relaxing time (too many «beep beep“s from the cash registers), a pharmacy, a sushi bar, and all the other accoutrements of the modern day grocery superstore.
It’s too far away from town for me to justify shopping here every week, but I will definitely be making a monthly run to get my favorite veg. and organic products that I can’t find anywhere else in town. I just hope that this store manages to keep things stocked, unlike its poorly managed counterpart in Auburn.
