Borowiak IGA in other cities:
IGA is one of a few grocery stores we have in the area, Grayville, Albion area. IGA in Grayville closed down, owned by the same family. I guess its an okay grocery store for a small town. I went looking for Little Debbie cakes, they didnt have a single kind of Little Debbies, it did have a few bags of Hostess Donuts and cakes, that was it, they have a fairly decent Deli, its just an old small town grocery store.
Wayyyy over priced. Gouging our elderly, and now without Gravills IGA everyone be they elderly or any other age and with out transportation, or of those that cannot afford a vehiclle.. Well they cannot even get to the dollar general where its all thats left there to shop for food. And if they cant get there they cant get to other parts of other towns to shop either. And Im done shopping at Borowiaks..Period!! HIWAY ROBBERY. . I cant afford to.
IGA is a sad excuse for a small town grocery store. The produce selection is not only abysmal, but often of poor quality and expensive. All of the frozen food is disgusting. I dont know what the problem is between the products being shipped and arriving in IGAs freezers, but all of the frozen products seem as though theyve thawed and refrozen, leaving them at a subpar level of quality. On more than one occasion, I have walked through the aisles and found food far past its expiration date, which should not remain on shelves if they are being stocked properly. In fact, Ive seen molded beef jerky hanging on the aisle end caps. Additionally, most of the cashiers are brief and unprofessional. Almost every time I go to the checkout and there are two cashiers in lanes side by side, the cashiers are too busy gossiping to each other to even greet me, instead leaving me awkwardly standing in between them while they finish their conversation and I await my total. Ive been to other IGAs, and in towns where they have to compete with other grocery stores, the overall quality of the stores seem to be better, so obviously they are aware of how to run a store. The Borowiaks know that they are the only grocery store within 15 miles, and they take advantage of this fact, forcing customers to exchange quality for convenience.

2021-10-27They sold me bread that was Five days past expiration date I didn’t think to look Because there was three of the same brand Didn’t see that it Was past the expiration date till I got home. I called him and told them Tell me there’s nothing they can do. I gave them two stars because the employees was friendly and nice. Their prices are Ridiculous at least double if not triple that you would pay at Walmart.

2021-07-06You wont get Walmart prices, but the freezer section wasnt all freezer burnt, like my previous IGA. If you dont want to drive 25-30 miles to Walmart, this is a good alternative

2017-06-18I love this store for its great chicken and fish from the deli. They also have great potato wedges I generally dont like potato wedges I buy, but these are made with real potatoes and are very good. The store itself is a little high priced, but very clean with a friendly staff. They also run very good sales on meat in bulk.
