Gfs Market Place

I love this place! I don't need a membership to a bulk store but like to get certain items in larger quantities. First, the people here are absolutely fantastic! They greet you and are happy to help if you need something!Second, you must come here if you are having a party! Frozen dishes that you thaw, bake, and serve! I have received hundreds of compliments on the corn casserole, macaroni and cheese, and barbecue. You just can't beat it! Third, there are a couple of favorite items that I have to recommend. The huge bag of butter popcorn. It's cheap and delicious! The two bite brownies are amazing! I will never bake brownies again!

I want to like GFS more because they are a great place for somethings but others are over priced or of less quality than the Club stores.If your throwing a large picnic or party or need food supplies for a larger office they have you covered. But if your are doing something smaller like 10 people or less stick with the grocery store.Personally on the bulk food side of the store some items are great and some are not as good as the same thing from name brands bought in a grocery store.Things I do like:Pre-cooked meats like burgers or hot dogs in large quantities.large canned goods where you need a lot of the productpaper supplies like plates and napkinsbulk condimentsThings I avoid:breads and pasteriesFresh foods like fruits and vegetablessmaller canned itemssmaller condiments (larger than store sizes but not as good)off brand canned goods are over priced and sometimes of lessor qualitySome items like soda and chips are priced better elsewhereService is mostly good but I've confused the checkers on several occasions where and they seemed to get easily flustered for many checkouts that are larger or not of the normal family size. I find this amusing in that they promote themselves as being for business yet when I place business size orders or pick them up myself they seam easily overwhelmed and often require a manager to assist in finishing the transactions. On the other hand the Managers are always well trained and professional at any of the locations I have tried.
