I have always been a fan of Smith's and with a recent relocation I find myself shopping at Smith's more often. It's not quite as close as Albertson's, but is a little more cost effective. The produce section is well organized and full of fresh choices. Ditto for the meat department. Their weekly ad is always full of stuff we need and the prices on the items that aren't on sale usually won't break the bank. Kroger has a pretty solid line of products too that are comparable to national name brands. During my latest visit the store was busy, but there was no shortage of help and plenty of check stands open.
