Hailey did a fantastic job choosing my groceries. She packed them carefully and in a practical way. All but 2 of the products were in stock.

INCIDENT AT LYMAN FOOD LION STORE #2642 INVOLVING PSYCHO CASHIER 0130 AND HER DIM-WITTED BAGBOY-FANBOY It's the night before Christmas Eve, 2022 and I'm doing the very last of my Christmas shopping. I've just purchased a gift item, a Shelf Elf, down the road at CVS, exchanged 'Merry Christmases' with the friendly personnel there and traveled the short distance to the Lyman FOOD LION Store #2642 to make my final Christmas purchase, a Franzia Box Wine. With it in hand, yours truly is full of the good old Christmas spirit as I head for the register where I want to complete this simple transaction and tell all those present, 'Have A Merry Christmas!' But the cashier and bagboy here do not want to have this kind of interaction with me. They have something else in mind. : ( : ( : ( It's 10:20 PM and this FOOD LION closes in 40 minutes. This should be a fun and cheerful Christmassy purchase. What could possibly go wrong? As I approach the lone open register in the store (in hindsight, no way in hell to avoid these two assclowns - grrrrr!) the cashier, cashier 0130 per my receipt, smirks at me then looks at the bagboy who immediately joins in with her 'fun'. No friendly smiles or warm season's greetings in this FOOD LION tonight! I say, 'Hey', to break the ice, but she responds with a PSYCHO DEATH STARE while the dopey-looking bagboy looks on with a cretinous smirk. It appears to be just the 3 of us in the store, me, the psycho cashier and her moronic bagboy, and these 2 THINGS are about to give me a 'private show'. Henceforth, let us refer to the crazy cashier as THING 1 and it's witless bagboy-fanboy as THING 2. Marvelous! THING 1 jerks the Box Wine from my hand as I'm not quite finished placing it on the belt and I look up to see that it is still giving me the PSYCH0 DEATH STARE! I find this all strangely amusing... THING 2 reminds me of the inbred banjo playing kid in the movie Deliverance. It looks away, still smirking, as I attempt eye contact. Meanwhile, THING 2 is still seethingly mad, about what, I can't begin to fathom, and not speaking as it jerks away from me to scan my item. Suddenly finding myself in THE TWILIGHT ZONE with the psycho THING 1 and the dim-witted THING 2 everything feels like it's happening in SLOW MOTION. This time-dilation effect gives me a moment to reflect on what I'm observing and postulate a meaning behind it all... It appears that what the psycho THING 1 is doing is a 'show' to impress the dim-witted THING 2 and judging by THING 2's face which continues to contort and smirk with goofy delight, THING 1's efforts are paying off and winning it over in a big way. God, I hope these two produce non-viable eggs when they hook-up later. But now it's time for me to pay... THING 1 has scanned my item and has resumed it's PSYCHO DEATH STARE. As the faux psychologist in me observes this strange insanity play out I realize that the fuel for some of this demented psycho-drama is THING 1's low self-esteem, due primarily to a negative body image as THING 1 looks like a more deranged version of serial killer Aileen Wuornos. Yuck! I wonder how many dead bodies are in it's past... As I insert my credit card into the reader an awful and ungodly smell of rotten eggs and putrid fish co-mingled with steaming sh!t enters my nostrils. THING 1 has apparently sh!t it's pants! Hurriedly... I complete the transaction with credit card and THING 1 quickly and forcefully stiff-arms my receipt at my face. Wow! THING 1 is the gift that keeps on giving! At both ends! I almost laugh as I take the receipt but I'm holding my breath and trying not to choke on the puke that I feel welling up in the back of my throat... I must escape these TWO THINGS if I want to live! Having emptied it's bowels upon itself, THING 1 resumes it's PSYCHO DEATH STARE, never breaking character. 'An Oscar winning PSYCHOTIC performance! Three thumbs up!!!' - says Gene Roger Siskel-Ebert of THE DAILY PSYCHOPATH Being a nice guy I somehow choke out the word, 'Thanks'. Again, THING 1 gives no reply. It just stares as it stands boldly and upright in it's invisible cloud of hydrogen sulfide and other noxious fumes. ...Whew, I've survived almost a minute among these THINGS!!! This must be FOOD LION's version of Survivor. I'm glad I can leave now and finally get away from THING 1 and THING 2's very draining, foul-smelling and psychotic mating ritual and join the real world of sane and happy human beings who are full of Christmas cheer and start drinking. As a last reminder of this night, THING 2 is still smirking like a little crazy jack@ss as I collect my Box Wine and leave. I reported these two assclowns to FOOD LION and the store manager, Lacresha, invited me to the store to pick up a $25 dollar gift card which I'll redeem at another store to avoid THING 1's deadly sh!t clouds. Y'all Have A Merry Christmas! ;-)

Really sad since they changed the rewards program was really nice to get a surprise on the program and use them really a benefit but to bad

Worst service from during day management and some employees. They take advantage of people and are rude instead of taking care of Custermor they are talking and joking around.this ain’t the first time this has happen and it’s a shame. I have been to other food lion in garner, Raleigh and Cary and compare to them if I could rate it a negative zero I would.

The Golden Gate Food Lion in Greensboro, NC is by far the absolute worst grocery store in Greensboro. The employees at this location are disrespectful and rude, especially the Manager named Denise. I had a return with a receipt. She refused to do a return transaction and refund my money. She was very rude and unprofessional. This is not the way to treat a customer under any circumstance. I have been a customer for over 25 years. I will not be patronizing FOOD LION any longer. They have lost another MVP Customer.

My Food Lion in Ruther Glen, Virginia had Impossible Burgers for $14.99, it should be $4.99. I asked 2 employees about it and they shrugged and said they have no answer. I asked if I ordered them what price would I pay, the online price or the store price.

Office help refused to call 911 for injured older person. Cashiers generally rude. Store mngr (boyd?) Too busy to help.aaked for zone mngr name. They refused. Showed mngr name on board, said had to call back to speak with him ( he had already walked away) Avoid forest hill foodlion

This situation I am about to discuss is a well needed topic that should be broadcasted globally! Yesterday I did some grocery shopping for my family. I decided to go to Food Lion #0775. After 5 mins of being in the store a woman approached me and asked if I could help her with her groceries for her baby. I looked at the cart and 1/3 of the cart was filled. It was very well organized and it did not look like it would cost that much for her items. She was dressed elegant. So you could tell she was not homeless. Her presence was very sad; as if she was about to cry. I felt sorry for her and said “yea of course I’ll help your baby out.” I’ve never been approached by anyone in this manner before. So I did not think I was being scammed at the beginning of this situation. I told her I just started shopping so I’ll meet her at the end once I am finished grocery shopping for my family. As I was done shopping at the end she was in the laundry detergent isle. She came out of the isle with a tide pod laundry detergent container. She said if she could get that item as well because her clothes are dirty. I said yea no worries. Then once we get to the register I stood in front and she was behind me with her cart. She continued to thank me and said I was a good man; a lot of times. She then asked lastly what was a visa gift card. She had a hard accent and said she can barely speak English. I told her it’s a card that you can only use if you put money on it. She asked if I could and I said I’m sorry I can’t really afford any more items. She said just like $20? I then said yea that’s cool. Now the cashier began ringing my items up first. Once he was almost finished with my items I left to the bread isle quickly because I forgot an item. I told the cashier that he could ring the woman’s items up that was behind me as well. He asked about the visa gift card and I said to put $20 on it. Once I came back from the bread isle he was finished with ringing up her items. I looked at the total and it was $637.81. When I do grocery shopping I usually spend between $200-$300 a week. When I saw that total I panicked and the woman was just standing there looking sad. I felt bad in the whole situation and I just felt like I needed to help. So I did out of the kindness of my heart. As we were leaving out of Food Lion she asked if she could have the receipt. I said no it’s ok I’ll keep it. She then said I’m just scared because the police think I steal. I told her take my number down and if the police stop you I’ll tell them I have the receipt. She said ok. As I left to walk to my car she says can I at least take a picture of the receipt. I then again said you have my number just call me if the police need any further information. She said ok thank you. I was parked towards the front of food Lion. Once I drove off and looked back in the direction the woman was walking in she vanished. This morning I calculated the total of the receipt to see how much her items were and it came to a total of $428.68. I then notice at the very end of the receipt the Visa card had $100 on it with a $5.95 activation fee. At this point I really feel scammed. Not only did she beg for the receipt but she also put $100 on the gift card after her and I agreed to $20. She must of told the guy at the cash register to change the amount to $100 when I left to the bread isle. Unfortunately nobody wants to assist me with this issue. I have contacted the Food Lion store where the situation occurred, Food Lion Corporation, and my bank at PNC. Everyone has stated that they can not doing anything for me because I purchased the items. I really did not think that the items in her cart would amount to that price. I had the funds for maybe $60 or $70 at most but unfortunately it was significantly greater. Everyone please be careful. I have never experienced a situation like this and I was scammed in person. It does not feel good especially when that money could go towards taking care of my family.
