upstairs as the escalator is the step type and not a moving ramp. So
shop upstairs first, or leave your trolley at the bottom of the escalator.

customer services, where you can exchange your points for gifts, are on
the right as you walk in to the store.
There are often special promotions going on at this supermarket. And as
you approach the store, it is not unusual to see a couple of stands offering
