Winn Dixie

karen of brandon, FL October 19, 2009

My complaint is that the front of the store is so dirty, really needs a power wash and more, itmes that are out of date. The clerks are so young and just do not have a clue as to how to treat customers, work instead of customers having to hear about what time they get off, what they did last night and how to clear up their complections. I hate to sound like an old fuddy duddy but I have choices and I will be going to [their] store only in an emergency, otherwise I will giving my business to Publix.

I responded to an ad for Winn-Dixie 250 that required you complete the full offers. These offers included responding to 6 different offers in silver, gold and platinum. After doing so, each offer had its own set of "trial offer" guidelines, that were pretty straight forward. The problem came with Consumer Incentive Promotions when I actually completed the offers and tried to end the process and receive a confirmation. After several attempts to end, I left an e-mail and voice mail and called them the day after.

On the following day I spoke with Rene and told her of my dilemma. She told me the process was to keep the programs for a minimum of 60 days with the cancellation of no more than 2 offers. At the end of that period, proofs of purchase had to be supplied before any gifts could be issued. I told her that you could end up exceeding the amount of the gift offer and that it was not explained in the offer in the beginning. Rene said it all depending on what offers you choose to participate in.

The truth is, this seemingly simple offer was very time consuming and in the end, bogus. My immediate concern is that I must now contact all these sub-vendors that attached themselves to this original offers page. Each one having a different set of criteria. Please let the consuming public know there is a REAL threat to their bank account and privacy. Because of a lack of disclosure and integrity. If I can possible same the innocent or naive any wasted time and/or money, I believe my expensive lesson will have some redemptive features.

The cost of each of these obvious programs was minimal, the most was 6.95 to preview. The hidden expense in the short and long run could cost hundreds. For example, one program that would serve my needs, listed three programs as "free preview." I took copies of everything, in order to know what I just brought, or not. I will spend at least 2 days cancelling these offers, this could have all been so avoided.

I went to Winn-Dixie as I have for 15 years last week and left my wallet on the counter. As soon as i got home, I relaized it and called the store and they said yes they found it and would put it in the locked office. i went to the store early the next morning to pick it up and someone had stolen 100 all my money out of it.

Several complaints later, they did nothing and could care less. They will never ever get my business again and I will tell everyone I know in Zachary about my experience.

I purchased Sugar Free ice cream on 4 separate occasions. I had to return it to the store every time. It was melted half way down the container. It was covered with ice and looked old. I was told on the 1st and 2Nd return it was because they were defrosting the freezers. The third time I was told It was the fault of the people who bring the ice cream to the store. The forth and last time I purchased the Edy's ice cream there I was told the same thing. I call for the manager and told him about it. He said it was the first he heard of this problem. If it is the fault of the Edy's company, then why isn't the Rouses grocery store next store having this same problem. I never get bad ice cream there. My husband parks near your store to get a ride to work. Again last week he looked at the ice cream on his way home and said it was still bad. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE PROBLEM???

I also purchased a bag of Winn Dixie's version of Splenda. In a Black and Yellow bag. It is supposed to contain 9.7 Oz's of the product. I had a bag of Walmart's Altern in my pantry. When I picked up both bags the Walmart bag was full and it was used a few times. The unopened Winn Dixie bag was half empty. I weighed both bags. Walmart bag was used ( remember? )it weighed 9.3ozs, the Winn Dixie bag didn't even weigh 5 ozs. I will bring it back tomorrow.{PS The man that works in the freeza department was the one who told me it was The company that brings the ice cream in that was the fault.}

I have shopped at winn dixie sense they opened in Eufaula and have always wrote checks.I lost a check book and I had thebank to close the account and open a new one. They gave me some counter checks to use until my new ones got to me,. They would not accept my counter check. I could understand if it was some one they didn't reconize,but they check me out all the

time. So winn dixie will not be my favorite grocery store now.
