Hello i have misplaced my KS Sooper card. .May i please get a new one sent to my address asap.. Thank you
I was VERY disappointed today at my local KS when I found you are dropping the Garden Life lettuce. Both the romaine and the leaf lettuce is the best I’ve found anywhere. I know it was the best seller because many times it would be out because it went so fast and I would have to come back to get it later when it came in again. Someone made a BIG mistake in dropping this product. I’ll have to find it someplace else I guess. Shame on you KS!!
Maybe it’s just me, but if/when there’s a negative thing to be said, wouldn’t that serve EVERYONE better if you didn’t share it but rather take this directly to your chosen store and/or the corp HQ to share your gripe and then ALLOW THEM to respond. ????
SHARE THE GOODS, LET THOSE BE SEEN AND HEARD – for your ill wills are exactly as flying daggers/bullets penetrating everyone.
……just something to consider. : )
PS – I’m just a regular guy, regular but FAITHFUL customer to King Soopers and I believe an overwhelming amount of people would agree with me that KS, as a whole, is about 2nd to none in this biz.
I have just recently moved here from California. My first experience with King Sooper was amazing.
I was greeted by very pleasant employees, offering lots of help as this was my first time and I have a walking chal lenge. More than one employee offered to search out a product i wasn’t able to find and saved me a lot of time. As my eyesight is not the best, the store directory sign was challenging but the paper version has helped me a lot as does the electric carts available. desk
Not to mention how courteous the people at the customer service desk were when I asked for help in perverting an electric cart
All in all a great welcome to a newbie to Colorado. Three cheers to King s ooper on Academy blvd..
I would like to commend Joseph at the bakery – King Soopers at the S Academy and Hancock Avenue store in Colorado Springs, CO. I have relatives in Montrose, CO and every time I go visit there, I have to go to the City Market and purchase their persian rolls. They are delicious. I went to King Soopers noted above and spoke with Joseph about the possibility of getting that bakery to make some from information given to me by City Market. He was able to make them for me and my family and they were just like the ones in Montrose, CO. Yummy!! I have made that special order request now twice and Joseph made sure they were perfectly made. Thank you Joseph. I only now wish they could be made available to the public for them to enjoy as much as me and my family do.
I have had problems with my local store #7. I’ve asked the produce dept. to fix their pricing machine because it doesn’t scan at the checkout, that was last , Friday. Today the same problem. I always leave the merchandise if it doesn’t scan. I told the front desk, instead of the cashier because she was to busy chatting. I also called the store and waited to speak to the store manager, on hold for 10 min he never answered.
The store is in it for itself not the customers. Safeway is a half a mile up the street. Guess who is their new customer
I want to commend the new store manager “Butch” at the 80th & Wads location. I’m a senior cetizen and wanted to buy a BBQ Grill but had no way to get it home. Butch personnally delivered to my apartment and carried it up to the third floor and when I asked him if I could tip him for his trouble he told me no and thanked me for being a good customer. Butch is a hugh asset for your company and the best thing to happen at that store.
