Smart & Final

First, expired food all over the store, and I am not talking about just a day or two, I saw today expired food dated back to the 20^th of November, 98% of the yogurt was way over the top, some open, and every one of them expired as far back as November 30^th, grabbed a box of 7up it expired last year, and their bacon, WAS green, WTH 3 weeks over due, their cereal most of which expired 2 weeks ago. Their grapes and other fruit were spoiled to the point of stinking, that rotting smell.
The cashiers are RUDE, after their credit card machine would not accept my debit card due to the machine being broken, so this guy asks for my card, no-​problem, but as he hands it back, he calls me BY MY FULL FIRST AND LAST NAME, wth!
I also had to bag my own groceries, while 3 workers stood up front chatting like lil girls, and then instead of the female checker bagging, she shoved everything down towards me for me to bag up, while she started to scan the next person in line??? When my husband Thanked me loudly enough for everyone to hear, she actually thought he was Thanking her, LOL, LADY DO YOUR JOB!
DO NOT GO THERE
So far I have NOT SEEN one person in MERCED that deserves any RAISE, and if they are making $ 10.00, they need to knocked back down to $ 7.00 an hour.
The HEALTH DEPARTMENT Really NEEDS to go through this place!

Lots and lots of bulk items for bargain prices. I’d avoid the fresh fruits and veggies unless you plan on eating them within a few days.
Customer service is great and attentive.

Great store! I shop there on a bi-​weekly basis for my coffee shop in the Yosemite area and the employees here are so helpful and accommodating! Their prices are great, selection is good and customer service is awesome. Pony Expresso loves this place~

I really like this store. I needed help with something and that Manager went above and beyond for me. It was really nice of him. They have really good sales some times, and there cheese in bulk size is the best price in town. Keep your eyes open for there flyer and you can get some really cheep stuff there.

Smart & Final can be great if you know what you want and compare prices. We save a lot of money on cereals, juice, spices and certain other things.

Very small store. prices aren’t that great and the service was pretty lame. the cashier charged me 2 times for more then one item. nice small collection of alcohol though & good prices for that. don’t think I will be returning much to smart & final unless I really have too.
