I always shop at carrefour because they have a more complete arrays of items and food. Giant may be cheaper sometimes, but they have less items than carrefour, they're cashier service is poor )especially when it comes to putting the groceries in the bag, they often mix chemical items with food in one bag), they do have a confusing layout, they have less varieties of fresh food (I always thought that fresh food at carrefour are fresher than giant). Overall... I like carrefour better.

You are right, for the lay out carrefour is nicer than giant. For the price sometimes giant is cheaper than carrefour. Honestly, to buy some stuff I prefer to purchase in carrefour, but for meat, fish and chicken I always purchase in Giant since they are more fresh and cheaper. I think now, Giant can be found anywhere. I have 3 giants around my area. Before, it was Hero Supermarket, but now they changed to Giant. I think Giant and hero are the same management.

no it's ok comparison is the best thing we can do in order to get the best price for the best quality. well it's good you mention superindo i always do shopping in superindo since in cilandak it's the closest and the cheapest one. yes it has fresh fish and even meat. i bought once meat for Rendang and it's really good one. (if u love this topic please rate the topic as well as my comment on ur responses) :)

Not really. Sometimes we went to Giant at Cinere Mall or Bona Indah or Giant at Margo city. Please don't buy fish at Giant Cinere mall, I suggest buy at Super Indo, much better and more fresh. My twins love shopping at Carrefour. yeah for somekind of fruit or vegetable and other house hold stuff carrefour is cheaper compare with Giant or Super Indo. Another suggestion, please buy freshness fruit, vegetables and fish at Dbest supermarket. Sorry, woman is always compare everything :-)

I think it depends on some people’s preference and the availability in some areas. Carrefour can be found in many places and Giant in few places. I don't know about the prices, because some ladies sometimes complained about the prices were higher than some markets. Perhaps Carrefour indeed has very organized structures on the layout, the racks ordering and the cashiers. However, I keep hearing some people complained about some cashiers' service was poor in quality. * shrug * The only reason I always go to Carrefour is because it is near. Giant ... well, the racks' ordering is rather confusing, but maybe because I have been too accustomed with Carrefour's racks.

yes it's right. the availability is one of the big issue. racks layout has it big role in customer satisfaction. i kind of more like carrefour for this layout. well, we have some commons bongkar pasang.
