    This community store is a complete ripoff. The guys that work there and own it are named "Mr ****" and "*****" and every single day they keep changing prices. Charging different people different prices. For example, if I was to buy a sprite, a pack of Newports cigarettes and a honey bun, the total would come up to something like $12.84. But if u go back to the same store and buy the exact same thing 2 hours later then the price will be different. Sometimes it'll be more expensive than the $12.84 spent 2 hours before or sometimes it'll be less expensive than the 2 hours spent before. This is constant. This happens every single day. Multiple times a day and people around here and sick of getting ripped off. This neighborhood has people who don't have transportation and this is the only store that they can walk to. Please help! They have no prices listen on any items in the store.

    My name is ******* ******. I am the owner of B&J Grocery. I have been working at B&J grocery for 7 years and I have never received any complaints. At B&J we value customer service and customer satisfaction. My store is located in a rough area and I have always been a supporter to my community so it saddens me that someone would take time out of his day to file an untruthful  complaint. Mr **** ******* is a local he comes to our store daily and 70% of the time he is short but we always let him slide for example he comes to our store and buys cigarette and chips and the total is 7.50 he would only have 6.50 so we let him slide tell him not to worry about it then the next day he comes he wants it for 6.50 since he got it for 6.50 the first time. We realized that Mr **** ******* is trying to take advantage of us so we told him we will no longer let him slide so he went and filed a complaint with the BBB.
