I simply do not understand the low ratings that others have given this Shoprite in Montgomery. I think it's a wonderful store. We've shopped there and only there for about 25 years even though I live in Princeton and could shop more local. It's clean. Prices are relatively good. Everyone who works there has always been kind and helpful to me. And they smile and say hi when we pass in the aisles. The deli gal always offers me "ends" for my kitties and other critters. All the food etc. is well organized, in fact I make my shopping list in the order I encounter items going from right to left through the store. And I love the music they play. Some of my favorite house plants I found there. It's fun to shop there. Parking is easy.

Tucked into an ancient strip mall, the ShopRite in Skillman has the chain's formula down to a tee -- groceries piled to the sky against a sepia-toned ambiance that says you're going to need a mariners sextant to find what you're looking for. If you close your eyes you can almost see the "greatest generation" housewives in their polyester house dresses pushing their carts up and down the dingy aisles, circa 1972, hoping to catch a deal on Marlboro cartons, SPAM, Cool Whip and an astronaut's sized bottle of Tang powder. So why the four stars? Especially, as prices here offer little solace from the ravages of inflation. In a word... solitude. There's so few people here that it's always an easy in and out with minimal fuss. I just kinda like that. Call me crazy and pass the SPAM.
