If anyone goes, please update us.

Do they deliver?

Hows the customer service?

Can you find things easily?

Do they sell any items that other supermarkets dont?

TIA

AFAIK, they don't deliver, at least not yet.

Considering I wasn't a difficult customer to service, I didn't run into problems. they seemed to be well staffed and friendly.

Things are very easy to find. The aisles are labeled well, the shelves are neat and I love the open freezer where you could really see every product.

They don't really sell items other stores don't carry unless you count the home stuff like ironing boards, hair accessories, tights, etc.

Just have to add that I did a stock up shopping last week. The plastic cutlery price is awesome : $3.49 for a box of 600 (usually the boxes are 400 pieces each at the same price). Arm and Hammer detergent was 9.99 and the grape juice was same price as Costco for the huge bottles of Kedem. Positiv lettuce was about .50 cheaper than other groceries. Yogurts were well priced too.

Very pleasant experience. Without delivery (I don't own a car) it's going to be tough to get me regularly but I heard they'll be adding that option using a 3rd party delivery service at a set price

Just wanted to point out that I did see next to the Rich's whip another variety of Rich's whip that was OUd and labeled as dairy. This was in the regular freezer, not the chalav Stam, so if it's a product you don't recognize, check the label.

And the plastic cutlery is a good price, but keep in mind that you can sometimes get the 400 count for $1.99 on sale at KRM.

I did not notice the jumbo grape juice when I was there. Good to know!

Last Thursday evening, when it was quite busy, a girl dropped a container of tomato dip. It splattered on the brand new refrigerators and floors. Within a minute, a young man came, bent down and wiped it up, all without saying a word of criticism to the girl. We were so impressed with his kindness and demeanor. The girl was enough embarrassed, she would've been humiliated if he would have scolded her. We complimented him.
We were impressed with the selection, prices, fish and meat was very fresh. Nice store, Great potential. I think they will tweak it as they see what the community needs.

Haven't checked out Bingo yet. However I saw pics. It's a total different type store to breadberry. Price too are way different. Many items are sold bulk or priced better in bulk.

It's a totally different type of store. It's like comparing a pizza store to Va Bene.

Breadberry is much much smaller and to the expensive side. They also have high end better quality foods.

Bingo is catering to the average customer . It is much cheaper and the concessions (meat etc) are not high quality.

How are they advertising their specials to the "average customer" who likes specials? I havent seen a single advertisement of theirs with specials, or even an ad with hours. Where should I be looking?

Hmmmm. Interesting! Theyre trying to keep the store a secret? Usually stores flood the circulars with ads even before they open.

You're right... it is strange-although the store was packed this week even without advertisements.

I wonder if they advertised in the publications that came out yesterday (Torah times etc)
I'll have to check...

I saw an add on facebook for them basically saying we are not spending tons of $$ on a grand opening so we can pass the savings on to you.

I understand it is a branch od "Osher Ad" here. They don't advertise with th eidea that they can then price cheaper.They depend on word of mouth. It seem sto work here.

Yeah, I don't think I'd heard of Osher Ad before running across one that had replaced a different supermarket. If they advertise here, it's in far fewer publications than many of the other chains do.
