Smiths remain my favorite of the big three as they have the best meat quality and selection and the deli counter cuts larger slices and has better tasting cold cuts.   This Smiths is very clean and the staff is helpful and friendly, even when you have to send something back for a price correction, holding up the whole line.\n\nThere is rarely a wait at the registers lasting longer than 5-10 minutes and you can self checkout.  \n\nThe store layout actually makes sense.  They usually have product samplers out at night and on weekends and they have a wine guy sampling wine and even offering samples. \n\nI only wish the pricing was consistently better. Like all supermarket chains they have sales that change regularly and sometimes have great deals but when an item is not marked down, it tends to be more costly than the same item at other stores.
