Stater Bros. Markets in Aliso Viejo

I hate this place so very much. The manager is an incompetent; toxic turd. And all the employees make mistakes constantly. I've been ripped off by this crapfest of a market over and over again. They will overcharge you multiple times and then blame you for their mistakes if you call them out i.e. toxic. Most of the time they don't give you your change or the correct change if you pay cash. I walked outside and realized they owed me $6 in change so I went back in and was accused of stealing $6 dollars from the cashier because he imagined in his head that he gave me my change: the cameras and management finally gave it to me after being complete dicks the entire time.. they haven't given me change multiple times so be careful as this place is horrible. There is a Pavilions up the road and a Sprouts across the street, please shop there instead because they won't ruin your day with incompetence. The incompetent manager insisted of overcharging me; it was an older man, he didn't know what was going on and made constant mistakes he had to apologize for under his stank breath. This market always makes mistakes and their food isn't that good nor fresh so I see no reason why anyone would shop here when there are so many good markets nearby that never make mistakes... I don't know who Constance S. is, she must be working in customer support or have been off work that day, but it's all shallow emptiness to cover up horrible service and treatment. If she was there she would have been severely disappointed in all the B.S. they put me thru. No thanks.

Spotify keeps blasting ads for this place, so I decided to check it out. It is a grocery store, they have all the brands you can get at pretty much all the other grocery stores. They've got zombie-like staff. The cashier who checked me out looked me right in the eye 3 times, and didn't say a word until the end of sale. I felt like I was wasting his time or annoying him by trying to buy things. He did say two things to me at the end of sale; the very first thing he said to me was my sale total. The second thing he said was "here you go" and he handed me my receipt. I get the sense that he does not like his job, or human beings, or maybe anyt...

My mom is a frequent customer of Stater Bros. Markets and it's no surprise that I shop there from time to time as well.  I remember her bringing me along whenever she needed to get steaks for the BBQ or groceries for our home.  Nowadays, I mainly go to State Bros. for their meat selection.  They have on-site butchers to help you cut up a rack of ribs or butterfly a whole chicken.  The meat is fresh and the service is great.   They recently expanded their organic produce selection which is great for those who buy organic.  I really like their international foods selection too.  They carry Cadbury chocolate from the UK!  They also have sticky rice, sriracha, and tamari.  There is something for everyone at this supermarket.  The prices are reasonable and I'm comfortable shopping there. This location also has a SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union inside as well as an ATM that participates in the CU network.
