Rachel hello and thank you for your video 😄 anyway, I moved to Las Vegas and I have never been to Wincos so I will no longer shop at Sams club or food at Walmart. I will be going tomorrow. I am excited! Much cheaper prices. Thanks again 👍
@Recon6 oh wonderful! We love it. I am not sure if I mentioned it. They do not take credit cards. I think it's debit or cash only. There are a few quirks like that and bagging your own stuff.
They have serious turnover in the store. I even have a hard time finding reduced items. Freshness isn't a problem. The only reservation is the nice cuts of beef steak isn't the most flavorful, but I grew up eating small farm beef and am picky.
@@rachaeloregon38 I can imagine turnover is a bugaboo. Retail typically runs astronomically high attrition and turnover has always been a challenge. The WinCo in Tulsa appeared a few years ago but I just made my first stop in today. I had my bodycam along. I was pleasantly surprised by the apparent tidiness of the store and the prices on many items were better than Walmart or Reasor’s (small local operation). I get the part about being used to farm fresh meat compared to the store stuff.
Oh! Sorry. I ment the food. It Flys off the shelves so it's pretty fresh! It is an employee owned company, so the employees have been mostly the same forever. That turnover is borderline nonexistent. 😍
@@rachaeloregon38it depends vastly on location. The food does get cycled through very quickly though. I worked at a distribution center for Winco and in the time I worked there (a little over a year), they hired over a thousand people, of those thousand, only a few of them actually stayed. The stat a few months before I left was something along the lines of 1/13 people stay at least 3 months. But the warehouse suffered way higher employee turnover when compared to the store locations from what I understand. But we’d get new shipments on produce and other items multiple times each week from suppliers. A lot of the produce I stacked actually came from farms within like a 30 minute to an hour drive of the warehouse. The meat were from major suppliers (like probably every other grocery store) so I’m not sure how fresh/local those were. Edit: I will say the benefits were amazing. They had the best insurance policy I’ve seen to date, the stock compensation was nice, and the pay was also really good for what the job was. The issue was was mainly work life balance at that location (it got a lot better by the time I left) and their PTO policy.

@@rachaeloregon38 ok debit or cash and bag thank you!
What’s your experience and opinion on the freshness and quality of the meat and chicken from WinCo?
