Alright, let’s talk about IGA in New Haven. I decided to check it out because I’d heard some good things. Here’s how it went.
Getting There
First off, I drove over to New Haven. It wasn’t a bad drive, took about an hour. Parking was a bit of a hassle, but I found a spot a few blocks away. Walked over to the IGA, and it looked pretty standard from the outside, nothing too fancy.
First Impressions
I stepped inside and the first thing I noticed was the layout. It’s a decent size, not too big, not too small. I grabbed a cart and started wandering around. The aisles were clean, and everything seemed well-organized. I saw they had a good selection of fresh produce, which was nice. Looked pretty fresh, too.
Checking Out the Produce
I picked up some fruits and vegetables. Apples, bananas, some lettuce, and tomatoes. The prices were alright, about what you’d expect. I examined the quality, and everything seemed fresh and in good shape. No complaints there.
Exploring Other Sections
I moved on to the other sections. I checked out the dairy aisle and grabbed some milk and eggs. I also browsed through the canned goods and picked up a few things I needed. I noticed they had a decent bakery section too, with some fresh bread and pastries. Smelled pretty good.
Meat and Seafood
Next, I headed over to the meat and seafood section. They had a variety of options. I looked at the different cuts of meat and some fresh fish. Everything looked pretty clean and well-presented. I picked up some chicken and some salmon for dinner.
Checkout Process
I finished up my shopping and headed to the checkout. There were a few lines, but they moved pretty quickly. I got to the cashier, and they scanned my items. The cashier was friendly enough, no issues there. I paid for my groceries and bagged them up.
Final Thoughts
Overall, it was a pretty smooth experience. I got everything I needed, and the prices were reasonable. The store was clean, and the staff was helpful. I left the store and walked back to my car. I loaded up my groceries and drove back home. I cooked up the chicken and salmon, and it turned out great. All in all, IGA in New Haven is a solid choice for grocery shopping.
