### 4/5 — Thankful for app, but takes FOREVER

*2024-11-26, version 9.0.0*

I’m so glad this app exists, but it takes forever to process. I’ve been waiting for my cart to process and pay for over 45 now. Soooooo slow. I could have drove to the store, shopped, paid, drove home and unloaded the groceries in the time it takes to check out on the app.

Fantastic employees great Starbucks

### 5/5 — The employees are awesome

*2024-05-26*

I tend to visit VG’s in the evening. I like the fact that, while they’re restocking the shelves, the employees are nice enough to say, “ Hi!” David and Bonnie ALWAYS have something positive to say. I just KNOW that VG’s is happy to have me there.

### 5/5 — Friendly Knowledgeable Workers Ready to Help

*2024-04-26, version 7.1.0*

Everyone is friendly and it’s relaxing to shop because the VGs staff works around me and cares about my shopping experience. I’ve shopped there for decades. The manager is terrific! He teaches by example! He’s always working, always has time for every customer and treats his crew like family. Fantastic deli, dips and bakery!

### 5/5 — Great Store

*2024-03-28, version 7.0.1*

I have been shopping for at least 18 years here. Wouldn’t shop anywhere else.

### 5/5 — Great Service!

*2024-03-13, version 6.2.1*

I don’t use it often enough! But when I do, I’m always happy with the service!

### 5/5 — Bags

*2024-03-09, version 6.2.1*

Enjoy shopping at VGs but was disappointed that they no longer had reusable shopping bags available to buy!

### 5/5 — VG’s Caro store

*2024-02-17, version 6.2.1*

I give the Caro Vg’s store 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
I’ve been shopping there ever sence it opened and was Shop Right ! It’s a great place to work. I worked there for over 30 years.  I’m retired now.
Thank you for the great service and opportunity!

### 5/5 — Love VG’s

*2024-02-17, version 6.2.1*

Customer service is out of this world at Clio VG’s. All staff are helpful and polite in a very genuine way. I think local grocery stores where staff recognizes you is what is needed in this crazy world.

### 1/5 — Can’t even log in or create a new account

*2026-05-30, version 11.5.0*

Useless app

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2023-12-18, version 6.2.1*

I have had the VG’s savings card to take advantage of the in store specials for years. Recently they started advertising digital only discounts on items in the store. Signage is not very clear which is card vs digital. 
In order to take advantage of the digital, I attempted to setup this app. Because I have an email already established it wouldn’t let me setup an account. Tried asking for a new password attached to my email multiple times but never got a response.

### 1/5 — Rx Refill no longer working

*2023-06-08, version 5.2.4*

I use this app almost exclusively for refilling my prescription, however, for the last few times I've needed a refill I keep getting the error which forces me to call it in.

### 1/5 — Can’t create an account

*2023-01-21, version 4.17.0*

As I’ve had the card for years. Because the app recognizes it’s an existing card it won’t allow me to create an account. I’ve never had an actual account but I tried my email and as suspected no existing account. So how can I use your app?  Guess I’ll stick to Meijer, and Sam’s. Never had any issues with their apps.

### 1/5 — Quit working

*2022-02-17, version 4.13.0*

It worked great for awhile. Hadn’t worked since the last app update

### 1/5 — Updated Version

*2020-03-09, version 3.4.1*

After the update, the app won’t work on my phone. Every time I get into the app it says an unexpected error occurred and to restart. When I hit the restart button, nothing happens. This is not cool.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2019-11-15, version 3.1.0*

I have tried several times.  Downloaded, uninstalled, downloaded, uninstalled, etc.  I either get the white screen, or I try to tap on anything and nothing happens.

### 2/5 — Been a VG’ shopper for 20+ years

*2020-03-08*

I have been shopping at vgs for over 20 years. I take care of a disabled sibling so finding time to grocery shop is sometimes difficult. I was very happy to start being able to use VG’s for home grocery delivery. However my last experience with them left a lot to be desired. 

I did not get the customary text alert that my order was on its way. My brother has a basement apartment in our condo, so I just go upstairs and wait for the delivery when I get the alert. I was called by vgs and said that they attempted to deliver my order but no one was home. I was home. Was told that they do not send messages that an order is on its way, I have the texts still from previous orders that show they do. I was going to call the 800 number to leave a complaint, but decided this was the better place to do that. 

I will be using Instacart from now on for my grocery deliveries, I never have problems with them.

### 2/5 — Problems

*2019-02-09, version 2.1.1*

Love this app for the fast lane—when it works!!
Most of the time my screen is just white-just white-nothing on it.  I have backed it out and re-downloaded it several times but this just keeps happening.  Very frustrating

### 2/5 — Fast lane

*2018-03-18, version 1.0.2*

I am unable to sign in to order through fast lane on my iPhone. I am able to put in my if and password but there is no “submit” button to complete the sign in.

VGs is always a good place to shop. Good food and specialty items and the employees are helpful and nice.

### 5/5 — The employees are awesome

*2024-07-02, version 7.2.0*

I tend to visit VG’s in the evening. I like the fact that, while they’re restocking the shelves, the employees are nice enough to say, “ Hi!” David and Bonnie ALWAYS have something positive to say. I just KNOW that VG’s is happy to have me there. However, when I asked for a rain check for hamburger that was on sale for $1.97 / pound (sold in 3lb tubes), someone told David that he couldn’t give me one because VG’s wouldn’t be getting any more. Well, SURPRISE!!!! VG’s has it on sale this week for $2.77 / pound in 3lb tubes. UNFAIR !!!!!!

### 5/5 — Love the Roasted Chickens

*2024-07-02, version 7.2.0*

Love all the meats and sale items. We love the roasted chicken and so does my Dog Daisy who gets one a week.

### 5/5 — Savings

### 5/5 — Great store!

*2024-07-01, version 7.2.0*

This store is always clean and stocked. The bakery is the best in town. Most delicious donuts and baked goods. The deli counter has great fried chicken and all the sides to go with it. Staff are always smiling, working hard, always willing to help.
