Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

On December 6 2024 at approximately 5:35 pm I purchased several bags of potato chips. Upon leaving the store I was bombarded by employees chasing me to my car accusing me of stealing the chips.

It was a big public scene and my reputation was tarnished in front of the citizens of the society in which I live. Upon providing them the receipt, I was brushed off rudely with no apology. The employees involved were a woman by the name of Cathy who was working register 3,another woman by the name of Ray alongside their manager by the name of Keith who chased me to my car and bombarded me with the accusations. I feel I was targeted being Im a African American who they would assume was in there just to shoplift.

I work hard for my money and I pay for the things I need.

Furthermore Im going to pursue this to a higher level with the corporate offices and make an official report with the Better Business Bureau. The staff there need to get their facts straight and not make such assumptions just by the way I look or my skin color. I will never again step foot in that store and will not recommend times supermarket in Kaneohe as a place to shop to anyone moving forward. It was a very humiliating experience for me that Ive NEVER had before.

Its very unfortunate to have to do this but there needs to be a message sent. Aloha!

User's recommendation: DO NOT shop at times supermarket in Kaneohe

Complaint: Line Long

AI Highlights
  • Wanted a quick buy of pancake mix and ice cream, but 2 registers caused a long line.
  • Customer walked out and asked for registers during peak hours.

7/19/24, 7:15 PM, Times Kamehameha Shopping. I would like to make a complaint about the experience I had today.

I intended to go in and out quickly, only needing to get pancake mix and ice cream. However, there were only 2 registers open, and the line was long, extending towards the back of the chilled area. I was so upset, I walked out.

It's just ridiculous that all I wanted was to get 2 items and the line was so long. Managers should notice this and open additional registers during peak busy hours.

Poor service

AI Highlights
  • Meds were called in around 10:30 and told to be ready after 2 PM.
  • I waited about 3.5 hours and a friend picked up the meds.

This morning I had oral surgery that required a lot of work. I asked the oral surgeon if they could call in the antibiotics and pain medication before I left the office so it would be ready when I got to Times Kailua.

They called it in at about 1030 and I got there at about 1230. At first I was told they did not have the prescription then after checking again they found it. I asked how soon could I get it and was told after two o'clock. I then told the clerk i would really like to have the pain medication sooner but she said there were two other people ahead of, She said to leave my phone number and they would call me as soon as it was ready.

My phone rang about 4 PM this afternoon but I couldn't answer it. when I finally went to see who called there was no message on my answering machine but I have caller ID so I saw the Kailua pharmacy number. I am a 24/7 caregiver for my wife and the caregiver that helps me leaves a 2 PM which is what I told the clerk from the beginning but she did not seem to care. I ended up calling a friend to pick-up my medication.

I suffered for 4 hours because of your poor customer service before I could take the medication.

My question is, if there was only two other customers in front of me, why did it take 3 1/2 hours to fill the prescription and why did the person who called not have the courtesy to leave a message instead of just hanging up. When Jim was there i never had this type of problem.

A picture of an I.D. is NOT the same thing as having the actual I.D.

in hand. Get your I.D.

replaced or at least present a passport and you won't have these problems anymore. People are not going to be willing to put their jobs on the line because you can't/won't get a valid I.D.

Lmao grow tf up & learn the law!! are you willing to pay my $2000 fine? Bye

Times Supermarket - Candle Review

AI Highlights
  • Signs showed $1.00 for Valentine candy.
  • I bought 2; scanned $1.50.
  • Staff refused to match the sign price and mentioned bait-and-switch is illegal.

Valentines candy on sale, with many signs for $1.00. Bought 2.

Scanned $1.50 at register. I was sent to customer service counter. She refused to believe me, so I went and got the signs. Then, I told her to go look that the signs indicated that price.

She told me,"It is already cheap, maam." Refused to adjust price to sign posted price. I do not care about the dollar, but the "bait and switch" is illegal.

Times Supermarket, Maui, "How may we gouge you?".

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Clerks are rude.
  • Prices are sky-high; vegetables are spoiled and dirty.
  • Bread is moldy.
  • Fish smells bad.

The Times Supermarket in Maui, across from Kaanapali Beach Club thinks it has a captive market north of Lahaina. The clerks are rude and insulting.

Prices are sky-high and the vegetables are spoiled and dirty. I bought a six pack of beer and the tops of the cans were filthy. The bread was moldy. You are better off driving the 4 miles to Lahaina to shop for groceries.

The fish smells bad. Selection is limited. The floors are dirty.

I saw one vegetable worker use the bathroom without washing his hands (no soap or paper towels in the restroom). The whole place just sucks!
