A few week back my mother went to this shaw, buying few things and this is when the trouble start. my mother give the cashier a 100 dollar bill, she bought less then 40$ of items and the cashier gave only 2 20$ bill and the rest of the bill and changes is not important. heres what my mother not do, she did budge at all when she receive those bill and found only two 20s ($40) after buying less than 40$ of things and paying with a 100.

so she ask the cashier about her 20 bill and the cashier said she already give my mother all the change. she knew my mother never move her hand and still deny it please note that my mother is wearing a short sleeve shirt during this incident.

so they argue for few minutes and the cashier claim that her money drawer has the right amount of cash so the manage came and check the drawer and still claim to have the right ammount and they refuse to give my mother her money so my mother told them that she will never go to this market ever again, tis is when the manager start throwing stuff at around.

my guess is that the cashier accidently gave someone an extra 20 and not notice so when my mother come here its the right amount in here drawer or maybe the cashier like to pocket money once a while pocket some money or they just pretend they know the how much is in there and said its the right amount i mean theres so many transaction during the time how could they know the ammount thats in the drawer unless most customer pay with credit card and my mother was the only one paying cash

few of my mothers friend warn her about this market though but my mother dont believe it, plus my friend told me the same thing, but heres the funny thing we are all asian. to be more specific we are all chinese.

maybe its a coincidence, or maybe the market like to target asian to rip off

I may never know the truth but if you go down there, make sure you pay by credit card just to be careful
if you pay by cash just make sure when you get your change, count it in their face or something

also you can avoid this by paying at the self service machine

I'm not sure if you guys feel proud of yourself, but I'm in fourth grade, plus i know the medicine cause my thinking problem.
took me over a month to coop with the insult you guys gave me.

my mother yell at me for submitting that story just because i was trying to help. and now i required therapy, i never knew a text based put-down can affect me so greatly.

rest assured this will be the last time i post here knowing that only angry and disgruntle victim visit this site.

anyway all i remember is that this shaw is near jfk red line stop of the mbta.

so i check the shaw site for store closest to home so since the next stop of jfk stop is quincy adam and quincy center i thought that was it.

I also use google earth application and apparently a shaw address are still listed there.
not more than a week ago i notice the map used in google earth are 4 years old as i remember that there's a condo around 500 tremont st of roxbury now, and since its not visible on the map of the google earth program I know now that they use old sattelite projected map.

First of all there is no longer a Shaws in Quincy and the address that you have Shaws listed is the Quincy Credit Union and has been now for 3 years. There are no Supermarkets on Quincy Ave with the exception of the Kan Man Market which is owned and operated by Asians. Get your story straight and tell it intelligently so that people can understand it.

How about re-writing your "complaint" so that it is possible for people to comprehend. Try stating the facts, leaving out erroneous unimportant details ... and a little punctuation and grammar wouldn't hurt either. I gave up reading your saga after the first paragrah as it appears to be nonsense!
