I'd like to share my opinion with these fraudsters but i'll leave them to do their business. Please stop spraying chemicals on your produce.

The bulk area is great; the meat department has a few great guys who are helpful. The produce department for a farmers' market type of store is awful. Products are very average and the customer servi... See more

I've read online that sale prices are not reflected at checkout. Today was the first day that I compared, and sure enough, I was being overcharged by a couple of bucks, just on one item. God knows how... See more

Sprouts Plastic Bag Scam

Sprouts continues to scam it's customers with a bogus fee for grocery bags. They want to charge you for the plastic bags or have you buy reusables. They try to tell you this is for the environment but, if that were true, they would have transitioned to paper bags and they would have changed their packaging. Over half of what they sell comes in a plastic container. This is just another scam that may make their corporate leftist feel good while placing all the burden on the customer.

Supplements

Hi!! I must say that as a fitness enthusiast sprouts is amazing. When I need any supplements there is s gentlemen named nick who is extremely helpful. He’s very knowledgeable and eager to help. His customer service is unequivocally the best. I never struggle to find anything. Also, he will help you find the Best Buy for your dollar. He’s the man to see at sprouts if you need supplements.

I bought beef kabobs at $8.99 per sale…

I bought beef kabobs at $8.99 per sale price! Served them to guests. OMG we could hardly chew threw them. I was mortified to say the least. AWEFUL. Don't

2nd time I tried to review. Really? I bought steak kabobs for a family get together. . . at $8.99 per lb on sale. They were so bad and so chewy that no one could finish their meal. How terrible is that. Your prices suck for what you get and the quality. I put you right in line as Walmart. At least they stand behind their products. Only one checker as well. Standing in line for 13 minutes. Wow, You've gone to hell in a hand basket. Not returning. EVER. I'm sure you won't post this. Money is far more important, right?

think just because it's Sprouts that it's good. . . it sucked? Veggies and fruit was just like shopping at Walmart. Save your hard earned cash.

Absurdly high prices

Two years ago Dublin store had Kals Nutritional yeast $11 ish. Your new store on S Nevada just opened. Price on same item $23 ish dollars. Told “inflation”. Went to Natural Grocers a few blocks away. Lo and behold, same brand, same product $11 ish. Saw no great bargains. PRICES HIGHER than King Soopers on bread I want Dave’s.

Very unhappy with sprouts just charging…

Very unhappy with sprouts just charging a dime for a bag without telling me. I had a few items and could have walked out with them. It was only a dime but it was my dime! I didn't need a dime bag littering up my place. There are other places to shop.

The sprouts in Brandon Florida used to…

The sprouts in Brandon Florida used to be a nice store to shop in not anymore, I had to have the cashier repeat herself twice because I don’t understand somebody when they don’t open their mouth and actually speak, mumbling is not my language and my hearing is perfectly fine! What the employee was trying to explain was that I needed to pay 10 cents for a bag, what the heck!! Really this company is a joke!! I had 4 items and an umbrella was I supposed to balance the items I got on my head, absolutely ridiculous!!

i've shopped at sprouts quite a bit

i've shopped at sprouts quite a bit. I enjoy their meat products. Today at checkout I saw that they are asking me to round out for some sort of donation for kids. This is an obvious scam. It's just a way to get money into the pockets of administrators and executives through BS accounting tricks. I don't enjoy being scammed when I go to a store. I will never shop at sprouts again because of the scam that they put on the register at check out. They are dishonest company. I would advise not shopping there. The prices are too high anyways.

Reliable produce market

Reliable produce market. You do get what you need. At the same time not much positive surprise either.

Seems like shifting target customer to more highly educated, physically fit or healthy oriented and higher in social-economic status. As long as you are in the range of ideal customer for them Sprouts Farmers Market is great. If not probably not.

10cents for plastic bag? Welcome to international standards.

Go back to California

I went to Sprouts today to pick up a few items. When I arrived at the register the cashier asked me if I wanted a bag and inform me that they were 10 cents each. Just another liberal socialist Komifornia store. This is Arizona, not California. We don't even charge CRV fees. Get out of our state. You've lost another customer.

Latest Sprouts scam

Sprouts is already overpriced and overwoke. I go there once in a while knowing I will be gouged but I begrudgingly accept it for food with less chemicals. Imagine my suprise at the checkout when they are now charging .10 per bag as some sort of “save the environment” con. That was the last straw. Like they don’t make enough by overpricing their stock. I am done with them as this latest scam is more than I can stomach. Shame on them for extorting 10 cents from people who really can’t afford it. If they really care about the environment, go paper! Scumbag move Sprouts!

Sprouts is now charging 10cents a bag…

Sprouts is now charging 10cents a bag to bag our groceries. I was until this point a loyal customer with Sprouts. The 10 cents a bag is a total insult. I complained twice to Sprouts on their website and they have not bothered to get back to me. This is a horrible policy and I will be shopping at Whole Foods for now on. Unless someone wakes up and stops charging me for bags to bag my groceries.

I shopped at Sprouts over the weekend

I shopped at Sprouts over the weekend, and I was shocked about how they charged me 10 cent for a plastic bag for the groceries I purchased there.
So, now I will have to just bring my own bags to this grocery store...It looks like times are getting hard for this grocery stores too...what a shame.

Good produce and organic items

Good produce and other organic items with convenient location. A bit pricey but quality has not dropped. Other countries are far ahead of the US in trying to reduce plastic bag debris/pollution. Kudos to Sprouts for trying to make a difference with their new bag policy. Will help retrain me to bring my cloth bags.

One lost customer.

First they stopped carrying meat without added growth hormones.
Now they've joined the global warming bandwagon with the plastic bags.

Charging 10 cents for plastic bags now!

Okay.. I shop at Sprouts because it is mostly organic and is close to where I live. Just stopped in today and spent $250 and she asked if I would like to buy a bag to put my groceries in! Not a insulated bag or anything like that. Just the plastic cheap bags that have always been free. As of May 29, 2023, Sprouts now charges 10 cents a bag! Sorry Sprouts, I'll drive the extra couple of miles and will start spending my money at Whole Foods. As if groceries aren't expensive enough now, now they want to make more money off of us by charging 10 cents for a cheap little plastic grocery bag. Boycott Sprouts and hopefully they get the message and change this craziness back to the way almost every other grocery does... you buy groceries, they give you a bag to put your purchase in.
Not only do we have to ring our own groceries and bag them, now we have to pay for those plastic bags!!!

Stop Being So Lazy

This is Branham Sprouts. Went there first day of a sale for bacon, Wednesday. Bacon behind the case was leftovers, gone through many times, scraps. Wanted 4 lbs. Asked for new bag where bacon will be stacked. Plan on freezing in portions when I got home. Was told by the lady helping me, no, there's no more. Didnt want to bother. So she continues to bag 2 lbs x 2 for me. I realize she didnt have enough to give me 4 lbs total. She will have to open a new package. Mind you, first day of a week-long sale. So I turned around and said forget it. Im going to another Sprouts. Yeah, great customer service. NOT.

I was harassed about my service animal

I was harassed about my service animal. I have shopped at Sprouts for many years, never had a problem until tonight at 4020 S Rainbow Blvd. around 4:30/5 p.m. I was harassed by "Nick" "security" and "Sherri" a "manager" asking me if my dog had a leash. My dog is ADA trained and they did not ask the legal appropriate questions. Nick continued to stand guard treating me like a criminal demanding a leash. I called my dog trainer asking him what I should do. He told me they don't know the laws so just ignore them and walk away. As I started to walk away "Nick" smirked at me and said, "Ma'am yea I know you just called your husband". Absolutely appalled at their behavior toward me and seriously shocked at their lack of knowledge of the ADA laws!!!!

Very disappointed

Very disappointed. This store is just about marketing and spreading a lie; it has nothing to offer, and it has nothing to do with a farmer's market. It is just mini Whole foods with fewer choices and expensive Items. Their fruits and vegetables are the same as the ones you find in any other store: Walmart and Publix..their prices are the same or high compared to any other store, and the choices are limited. If they had anything good to offer they will not need to put out so many ads, they are everywhere. This is what corporate America became: spend $millions to promote lies. I visited their store 1 time, I will never go back again.
