H-E-B Cashier

I was embarrassed by a cashier by the name Miranda (register 11). I have SNAP benefits and used that to pay along with my partner card because I have a Daughter who works for the Company. I also used a digital coupon I had along with in store coupons. The only non food item I bought was a pack of toilet paper that was $1.87. At the end of the transaction, she told me my out of pocket balance was $12.22. I explained to her that I didn't get any non food items besides the toilet paper and if she could check the register or receipt. She said no she doesn't do that. I asked for a Manager and was told they don't do that either. I was so embarrassed! Luckily there was a sweet Boy behind me that offered to pay for me. And when she gave me the receipt; she tells me: Ohh.. you have $ 51.71 lest in your SNAP account. I explained to her then why wasn't that $10 charged into that account cause I knew I only owed about $2.00. She told me to check on my own because again she couldn't do that. Very, very unprofessional!

H-E-B Everything

I am extremely disappointed in Mi Tienda. Not just the first time but for the second time. The first time I shopped at the store I spent $300 on groceries. The way that you guys have the bakery separate from the grocery is a cause for concern.in large corporations like Walmart and Kroger they made it not only convenient but ethical for a consumer. Customers do not want to pay twice. I shouldn't have to pay at the bakery then pay for my groceries separate. That's not logical. It would be like going to McDonald's and having to purchase once for food and another for beverages. Just doesn't make sense. Anyways as I finished shopping with my husband I exited the grocery and then entered the bakery side. Upon walking into that area a Hispanic Manager immediately stared me down and I already knew what he was thinking so I pushed my cart in 100% visible location where the manager could see. My husband shopped for the bread and paid AGAIN! As soon as we went to walk out he locked my wheels as if I was a thief but remember I just spent $300. I was so angry and disappointed that humans treat other humans like scum over race. I told my husband I would never go back even though I literally live 1 street over. Today which has been months since my first visit I decided to give it a second shot. This time for a Western Union transaction. I waited for about 10 minutes in line only to be told to fill out a paper which is not required by any Western Union this is just Mi Tiendas process. Alondra B told me to move so she could service the woman behind me. Now let's get this straight. Is that proper customer service to require me to stand in line then be forced to fill out a "form" that isn't even required by WesternUnion and then service someone who was after me? When did that become a factor in customer service. I was frustrated but didn't say anything. I had the form to Alondra B and she tells me that the MTCN number has nothing under it. I ask her what I have a picture from my husband on the receipt. She tells me to move so I can call my husband. I asked for what and she rebuttals I don't know what for. So I ask her what number do you need and I ask to see the "form" that I filled out. I asked "which number?" What happened is she was looking at my phone number which was printed in the mobile number section instead of using the MTCN number. She never once apologized for her making the mistake. I asked why she had an attitude and she said she didn't. I asked for my information back the I was required to fill out and she said "No, it's our managements request to keep them". I spoke with the manager on duty who also lacked customer service skills. So there are a few issues here I'd like be looked at. First, why does Mi Tienda only hire or if any hires only Hispanic people. Isn't there a requirement to hire all backgrounds? Second, what happened to customer service? First come, first serve. Third, why is it ok for people who are not Hispanic to be treated poorly? And lastly, why is it ok for Mi Tienda to take my name, email, physical address, and phone number, and keep it? Please explain. The last two experiences I felt were racially charged and I feel horrible. It's even worse when you're children are half Mexican and you still get racism. I'd also like to add that I know for sure racism is going on because the Security company you employee I use to be associated with and know the "types" of people that management called in on... guess what they are mostly black or another race. I will continue to push this and possibly contacting others regarding this distasteful

H-E-B heb greek yogurt 4-pack

I love the HEB greek yogurt 4 pack of single serving cups, however the last several times I have received them they have had 2 issues. (I mostly order blueberry and raspberry flavors.)

1. they are not as full as they used to be. I know it is by weight, however the last several batches have BARELY been half full.
2. The raspberry flavor has no raspberry flavor. The one I am currently attempting to eat is almost white in color and tastes like plain greek yogurt with a SLIGHT hint at what could be a berry flavor. (lot #27, sell by Aug 2nd) But this is not the first batch I've gotten with hardly any raspberry flavoring.

I checked out at HEB on July 13, 2019 at 7:18pm. My total was $193.19. I gave the cashier $200.00 in cash. I wanted someone to look at the video and see if all that the cashier was doing with the cash I gave him was necessary. In my eyes it was embarrassing. Because if he thought the money I was giving him was counterfeit, that's not the way to check it. It...

H-E-B heb mayo, real mayonnaise, 32 oz.; upc [protected] 4

I'm in my 70's and I've eaten a LOT of mayonnaise in that time. Until about two months ago, THIS product was my favorite mayonnaise, even over all the big national brands and regional favorites (like "Blue Plate"). I highly recommended it to everyone.

However my last purchase of two 32 oz of this product was a disaster (more than a disappointment). The product was not even mayonnaise. It was thin and almost watery. It appeared to me, from the taste, that they had left out the egg yolks (or most of them). It tasted of little else than oil and vinegar. Ruined a recipe and part of a big meal.

I also called this one in to HEB Customer Service.

HEB, shouldn't there be someone at all of your suppliers who checks each batch of such a complex product and who knows the product and what it's supposed to taste like? This was just not even mayonnaise at all. It tasted like the (cheaper) "salad dressing" but without the sweetener.

The week of July 22nd I went to the smaller HEB in San Marcos with my daughter who is about to attend Texas State in the fall. We were standing in line when the cashier, Monica, starts talking to what I'm guessing is her manager some girl in a different colored shirt about smoking weed together. They went on and on about how they haven't smoke with each...

Good morning, I hate to say this but being that this store is apart of where I live I feel that I have no other choice but to. I don't know what has happened in this store over the last month or two but the store looks like crap!

H-E-B heb buddy training pants

I purchased the Big pack of H.E.Buddy training pants size 4t to 5t. Out of the brand new pack 6 have ripped at the stretchy sides when attempting to pull them up. I would like to suggest that the sides be increased in length to allow for better stretch at pull up. I bought the large pack on a budget and am throwing away unused training pants due to defective sides.

Bananas were bruised and a couple from the bunch of 5 were mushy on the tips. One tomato had a greenish yellow color on a third of it. Watermelon was too ripe. I know fruit is a gamble, however you can clearly see the bananas were bruised and the tomato is not not ripe. I purchased all organic so it cost a little more. When you pay a bit more for organic...

H-E-B found a big piece of plastic in salad bag

Found a big piece of plastic in HEB organic salad bag. Luckily it got on my husband's plate & he was able to remove the piece from his mouth. I stopped at the store with the bag & the plastic piece & I was told the manager will call me however no response. I am not going to buy the salad bag anymore. They need to do a better quality control. I am paying a high price for it.

H-E-B curbside pickup at dripping springs store

I placed an order today for curbside pick up. I ordered the Bolthouse farms baby carrots and instead received the Kerns baby carrots. I was not informed of the change. Several times before I have received the KERNS brand and they are ALWAYS slimy and disgusting. I always have to throw the bag away as they are unfit to eat. I do not know why you carry that brand as they are never of any decent quality. I am upset that I received this brand and will have to throw them away. If i had been notified about the substitution, I would not have purchased them.

H-E-B pharmacy technician not giving me all information

So I called HEB rx 4 days ago, which I've been using for the last 12 years now .Amber, an rx tech answered the phone did not give me all the information that I needed. Although I didn't ask for it, I asked if the doctor had called any of my refills for the three medications that I've been on for approximately two years now. She said no he didn't . Yet, she neglected to tell me that I had refills. So I've gone without my pain meds for 3 days now because of this, As well as calling my doctors office in raising Cane's that they had not called in my medication! How embarrassing! Just because she didn't give me the information that was right in front of her when she pulled up my birthday!

H-E-B the way I was treated by an employee

I went to HEB #692 ( 3590 College St Beaumont, Tx 77801) yesterday 5/26/19. I was picking out a watermelon. There were several different displays. There was a digital coupon for a free watermelon knife with the purchase of a super sized watermelon. We asked a employee named Joseph how much the watermelons were in the front display and he said they were all the same price $5.97 but the watermelon knifes were only for the smaller seedless ones. I asked I'd they were the same price then why couldn't the coupon be used for either. His only response was because it is what it is. I ended up picking out one of each and 2 of the knives since the coupon was unlimited. Joseph literally in my face walked to each register and told them that the knife was only for the smaller watermelon. How humiliating to do that in my face with no good reason. The person that checked me out rang up both watermelons and the coupon did work on both so I am not sure why Joseph was so rude when he didn't even know what he was talking about. I also bought $300 in gift cards. Those I could have bought anywhere. If you want people to continue to use your store then someone may need to speak to Joseph about the way he treats your customers. As we were leaving he was misleading another customer, but I spoke up since he was telling them wrong.

H-E-B checkout

The man running the checkout isles at 4:30 on Friday April 26, 2019 needs to be retrained or at least talked to. He had only 2 lanes opened, customers with carts completely full of items. Lanes where so full that we were dripping into the food isles. However he kept picking random women out and letting them go into the 15 items or less lanes while others had been standing in line longer than them. Heb on 2nd st in McAllen Tx 702. I had to leave my items without paying because I had been waiting long enough already and couldn't wait anymore. The fact that he had no problem letting the other customers see what he was doing really says a lot about how he simply did not care about the wait. Not only that, he had no one sacking groceries, cashiers were sacking the groceries. It was really Disappointing to be treated that way.
