I used to mainly buy groceries at the Rainbow store near Lake
and Hennepin, but it is such an ordeal getting through the cashier stations,
waiting usually always at least 20 minutes, I changed my preference to store
at 82nd and about Xerxes in Bloomington. I also much prefer going to the
Wedge Coop Grocery at 22nd and Lyndale. Lunds is good too.
It is obvious at the Lagoon ave Rainbow, they have for years had
a personal problem, like that they probably draft people from under the
bridge to come up and work for food, that's how bad it has looked a lot of
the time, and of course they are horridly slow. A few times I had to just
walk out of there as I couldn't keep standing there indefinitely waiting for
people to stand looking at and waiting for each other.
Those stores have about 15 cashier station lines and seldom more
than 3 or 4 open for business and usually with long lines waiting behind the
working stations. I often have thought that store -and a few others- would
benefit greatly by offering a few dollars more per hour for their help.
