I have seen people discuss on mobile phone tariffs and all other stuff.Decided to start this thread to get peoples experiences on their supermarkets of choice.I find Tuskys more expensive than Ukwala .

I Hardly use Uchumi and Nakummatt due to Lack of a branch near my residence.People share your experiences here

I do not like Tuskys because they are always overcrowded and they have really bad customer service. There was one time i was treated like trash by the dude who packs items in paper bags at the till. I was sooooo pissed i didnt want to go back. And they look at you like 'uta do what??" i was soo pissed. Bado sijamsamehea.

I reeeeeeaaaallly like Nakumatt. They have great variety. You will never miss anything you want if you go to Nakumatt. But they are sooooo expensive. I like Naivas. It is a good supermarket well stocked, good service and affordable.

Tuskys stole from me! I will not forget and I will not forgive. Say goodbye to your devoted client!There's this new supermarket, also very small.I know of two of their branches one in donholm and another in imara daima. Its called Jaharis. Fair prices.

i was so annoyed the way they made me beg for a paper bag yet the goods i had were heavy i know its cutting on costs but surely?

I shop at Tuskys, but one day I bought KGas at 2000/- while at Kenol a few meters away, the same gas was going for 1800/-. Ever since, I have been thinking of buying stuff from the wholesale shops. if only my friends could agree we pool on shopping of common items,,, but then again, we use different products... I am still looking for a wholesale shop near my residence
