the Around the World issue

TOPS OF THE TOWN Hi there! Just dropping a line to compliment a customer service agent at the Westbank Expressway location. Megan was very efficient and friendly, despite the store being overwhelmingly busy because of the holiday. I also work in retail, and customer service and that attitude can be difficult to maintain, especially around this time of year, and when you’re tired and trying to finish your Thanksgiving shopping, someone like her can make your day. Please pass along my thanks. —C. Flynn Just wanted to send kudos to the employees in the deli of your Saraland, Alabama store. My sister and I had ordered several party trays for our parent’s 50th wedding anniversary. I picked up our order and everything was just perfect. The ladies loaded my two buggies, and were so friendly.I had ordered the stuffed mushrooms, crawfish pies, toast points and finger sandwiches. The food was fabulous!! Everyone at the party (and especially our parents) loved everything! —H. Holloway Hey guys just a little note to let you know we visited your store in Gulf Shores, Alabama, and we love it.The produce is awesome and fresh, we really like the seafood, and the girl who was there packed us some shrimp to go. She was really nice and really helped us. We love the variety of seafood.Love the fresh cut meats also. My husband really likes the deli and bakery. Everyone in the store welcomed us and was very helpful.We’re here for a few months. Thanks so much for being here for us. —M.

I had time constraints with working Tuesday andWednesday before Thanksgiving. After seeing the insert in your ad circular, I thought I’d take the chance and order dinner. Picked it up Wednesday afternoon, brought it to my mother-in-law’s house to heat up for the three of us, and, voila, we had our fully cooked meal ready in about an hour. All I can say is, WOW! That was delicious! All three of us thoroughly enjoyed everything! Thank you for being there to save our holiday! —K. Diaz Holidays are our specialty.
