Week 6 of 8 at Food Lion

For the record:  I am done with Food Lion after this promotion is over with.

I have 3 Food Lion stores within 2-8 miles of my house.  My thoughts and opinions:
* Customer service at 2 of 3 stores is horrible.  The closest store to my house Food Lion Management is downright rude, aggressive, confrontational, and unprofessional.  This store will be known as hateful Food Lion.   
* Not a coupon friendly store at all.  They do not double coupons nor are you able to stack coupons.  Area competitor stores (Safeway, Giant, Shoppers Food Warehouse, Harris Teeters) allow stacking and double coupons.  Every time I use an internet coupon they claim it was photocopied. Photocopy?  How can they be photocopied if the unique number of each coupon is different?  If I were to photocopy don't you think I would have made it for a different value than 50cent or 55cent?
* Catalina machines to print the weekly gas promotion receipts seem to out of paper, jammed, or broken.  So now I have to go customer service to get a gas receipt and it is like pulling teeth to get one.
* Promotions: Safeway and Giant have far better gas promotions that Food Lion
* Sales: When sales happen at Giant, Safeway, Shoppers, or Harris Teeters they have more store items on sale.  There is not as much variety of sale items at Food Lion
*Prices:  Prices are not competitive at all.  The difference between Food Lion prices and their competitor prices are minimal.  Add in the factor that couponing is so difficult and I find I am actually paying far more for items at Food Lion.  

Summary of Week 6:  The one thing I am thankful for is the hateful Food Lion is next door to the post office.  I stopped by the Post Office this week and found these two little beauties in the parking lot.
