Kroger

This Kroger is decent. It’s one of the only older Krogers left — at least that I’ve seen. Desperately needs an update. And needs to have actual registers open instead of just self-​checkouts.

Again I say that this location is always sooooo crowded. Even parking can be a difficult task.
Great Manager at this location. He is always pleasant, even to his staff. I have heard him talking to a few of the workers with out him being aware that I was on the other side of the aisle and he seems to be very caring/​kind to his staff.

I have been to a lot of Krogs in my day, and this one ranks pretty highly. It’s my regular spot for grocery shopping, which means I hit it up roughly 1 – 2 times a month. The staff are always nice — although I’ll admit, I haven’t interacted with many, because I’ve never run into a problem of finding something I’m looking for. Plus they have a Bank of America inside.
Tip: Do not, I repeat do not, shop there without getting that dumb little Kroger Plus card — you need it!
My boyfriend hunts through the meat section and finds AMAZING deals on weekday mornings (yes, I realize this is when the rest of the world doesn’t have time to go shopping — but weekend mornings are pretty good, too). Once, he forgot to grab the meat he purchased from the spinning rack of bags (minus a point for the staffer checking us out). But, when I returned with my receipt and waited in line for Customer Service, she told me I could go pick out something new to replace the food we paid for but didn’t receive. That’s cool. Plus two points.
They have a big selection of wines and beers. They always have great specials on popular items, and they do the ’10 items for $ 10′ and ‘buy 5 of these and get $ 10 off,’ and their website lets you custom collect coupons and put them directly onto your Plus card so when you swipe it, they automatically apply. AND who can beat 10 cents off each gallon of gas you pump at a Krog station every time you spend $ 100 on food each month?
I laughingly agree with Jack M.‘s review that the clientele can sometimes leave a bit to be desired, but hey, you’re shopping on Thornton Road (a veritable strip mall) and if you don’t like it, there IS a Publix about 10 miles away (intersection of Lee Rd. and Hwy. 92).

I both love and hate this store. It’s my regular grocery source, with good prices and always well-​stocked. However, the people who I share this store with, well, they leave a lot to be desired. At various time I’ve confused the aisles of this store for a rap video, a third-​world country, and a trailer-​park family reunion, and sometimes all three in a single visit.
It isn’t the store’s fault it attracts the worst of the neighborhood, though; there just aren’t really any other grocery stores in the immediate area, and the area is perpetually going down hill.
Other than the sundry né’er-do-wells and classless jerks that shop here, it’s a very good store. The employees are great during the regular daylight hours, but quickly turn bored and surly after midnight, so expect to be generally ignored and to use the self-​checkout.
Despite its faults, it’s better than any other grocer in Lithia Springs. And I’ll keep going there while attempting to accept my fellow shoppers for entertainment value!
