Great Value Milk 1% Low-fat, Half Gallon, 64 fl oz

Let me be frank, in today's grocery cost environment I prefer this milk item because it is one dollar cheaper and just as good as the NC family grocery store one mile away. After Helene I use a smaller fridge and this size is purchased for fitment reasons. Walmart Brand Milk has a linear price increment (a half gallon cost about half as much as a gallon). My big family franchise store one mile away charges 2/3 as much for the half gallon as the one gallon. I buy 3 half gallons at a time so I'm getting a $3 savings each order. The half gallon sizes seem to stay fresh longer than the gallon size. Also, I find week to week, Walmart grocery prices are more stable than my NC family owned grocery that is one mile away.

this is another item like the eggs that is hard to order and expect a decent delivery of a product. my milk always goes bad way before the expiration date. but sometimes the expiration date is just a few days beyond the delivery date. I ordered small containers because I'm by myself and I don't drink the milk up quickly. but I know because I can't go in the store myself and pick the ones with the latest dates on them I have to get what you send me. but the fact that you're great value 1% or 2%, court or half gallon, whatever I order goes bad within a few days. I don't know if it's because you don't pack your Frozen and cold foods in a cooler for delivery or if it's because the shopper buys or picks up all of the milk and cheese and refrigerator and Frozen items first and then walks around with them at room temperature until the entire order is finished. if that's how you guys do your shopping you should teach them not to pick up any milk or dairy products such as ice cream, until the last minute. I used to get my groceries from Stop %26 Shop, the nice thing about that is that the Shopper worked at the store and collected the items, and took them to a room where they had freezers and refrigerators and all the delivery people had to do was come in and pick up the proper bags for the proper recipients, and then deliver it. and all the deliveries came in coolers. big giant coolers with big giant ice packs. and they had a cart to bring the coolers up to the apartment door or to the house, wherever they needed to go they didn't leave it downstairs sitting on the floor because they refused to come into a multi-unit building or leave their car in a non parking area. I sure wish you guys had that kind of delivery and packing service. feel like I should go back to Stop %26 Shop.
