Woolworths Papamoa

We love shopping at this store, and go here daily. It is well stocked, has a huge variety and is fairly priced. Today however, I had an encounter with an older staff member at the self checkouts, who was very rude towards my mum and I. We weren’t sure what the issue was, and left feeling a little upset

I hardly ever write reviews, let alone negative ones but was a little shocked with how some elderly customers were treated by a guy in a vest moving stock today. Was heading to the checkout, and two workers in vests were pushing a moving stock trolley, there were a few elderly people waiting in line (who weren’t yet aware of them trying to get past), who were VERY rudely told to move, along with myself who had no where to go. It’s not difficult to be polite to people, especially elders (In this case who were using a cane). Made me sad how they were treated:(

Have to actually get out of your car and go into the mall to collect. And then the customer service was very slow an poor. Some of my shopping had been scraped from the bottom of the barrel. For example my Banana chips. I'll go to PAK'nSAVE next time it's right opposite.

I encountered a young male wearing Ann ugly Christmas jumper filling shelves he was racing around like a maniac drinking an energy drink racing in front of people going too fast with his trolley he came to the freezer section and was fast and rough with a box of frozen chickens he ripped it open and they landed all over the floor one hitting the side of my leg no real apology just thought it was funny except it’s not I had a person with me with a disability if he had been hit it would have been serious! I rang the store they didn’t seem too worried no details were asked for she said she would follow it up but no apology. This is not acceptable or professional behaviour!

Good shop, But have a bad habit of selling Meat & pies And Bostock Chickens right up to the use by date , beware check the use by date of all your meat products and if they mark them down they don't tell you they're about to expire. Don't try complaining to the manager he's always on his Phone !
