+1. Northborough Walmart is the best supercenter that is close by and the produce is pretty ok! For more of a quick errand, the West Boylston Walmart (by the movie theater) isn't bad either.
(edit): if you go further down rt. 9 towards Westborough, there are some other stores like Burlington Coat Factory, Lowes, a Dollar Tree?)

No, I actually respect that part of town. The metro Boston yuppies have already taken over the northern part of Kelly Square, even though this part has problems I find that alot of the people that live over there are tough and impoverished but lots of good, real people.

During the Christmas season, the target had more people in it than I've ever seen before. More people on the days before Christmas compared to even Black Friday. Plus they blocked off the main corridor because of the lines. Staff likely felt no motivation to clean up during this period. Also the milk aisle at that target smells horrific.

Reply to Solar providers recommendations? by TechNicolas
You're right to stay away from the door knocking salespeople. For anything these days! The time to go solar is good but there could be future incentives coming for MA. To search for clean energy incentives by ZIP use dsireusa.org and here is a helpful infographic breaking down the solar tax credit which is part of the inflation reduction act:
Probably the biggest thing to watch out for is getting locked into a solar lease. If possible buy your solar PV equipment outright. Solar leases come with penalties for early termination. I work in the solar industry, in the training sector and write to a global audience on everything solar PV. It would be a conflict of interest to recommend specific companies. It's best to gather 3-5 quotes from large to small solar companies for the best balance of customer service and cost. Energysage is trusted by many Redditors to compare solar quotes by location, get $25 off by clicking this link. For another option in gathering solar quotes, EnergyPal helps to leave the final decision of the solar company selected, totally in your hands. Get a $500 gift card from them by using the link mentioned. Always ask these questions of any solar installer when gathering your quotes :
Are you approved, licensed and insured to operate in my state/county/city?
Ask for their license and policy number and verify that it’s in good standing with the appropriate licensing board and insurance providers.
Is my roof a good fit for a solar PV array?
Realistically, most solar panels can be arranged to capture the greatest amount of energy with adjustable racking technology and other assessment tools. In the end, some homes will have better solar coverage of their roof over others. Using a tool like Project Sunroof can help you assess on your own and without a salesperson. If your roof is covered in shade by large trees or a nearby building, north facing or in poor condition it may be not suitable for solar installation. Installing a new roof and solar system at the same time can be a cost effective way to combat climate change and lower your carbon footprint.
What happens if I want to sell my property or move out?
Look for specifics in your contract and ask for them to be explicitly noted. If there are any penalties or fees you’ll see them here. Another important point is the ability to move out of the property and rent it to tenants. In this case, the options should be stated as applicable. Perhaps you wish to have your tenant pay the electric bill but you wish to continue with the financing payments for the PV system. Learn all of these details up front and from the contract’s top to bottom.
Do you use contractors to install the equipment?
Using a third party contractor can bring opportunity for uncertified or unlicensed/uninsured workers on your property.
What type of warranty does the system and install come with?
Warranties and guarantees can vary greatly. They can exclude certain components and not provide a point of contact should something go wrong. Get as many details in writing as possible before signing a contract.
What is your estimated timeline for project completion?
Timelines can vary greatly and can influence total cost. Watch out for the estimated timeline and that it works with your schedule.
Can you provide the total cost of the system to me in digital or paper format?
If you are looking to finance or lease your system ask about any required down payment and how much monthly payments will be. Any state/federal/provincial tax credits/benefits should also be detailed here. We strongly advise readers to own their equipment outright to avoid any additional hidden costs or penalties/fees should they want to exit the contract or sell their property.

Knives and sharp objects are significantly easier and cheaper to get a hold of than a firearm. I believe (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong) that most slashing / stabbings are generally with stuff like kitchen/steak knives.

Customers treat the stores like trash and the staff can’t keep up with the destruction they cause. Same with the Worcester WalMart, usually looks like a war zone in there.

Who cares? As long as the store is nicer who cares what the bumper stickers in the parking lot are?

You pick up the TV and you walk out because Walmart's policy for dealing with this stuff is to document it, call the police, and not have a confrontation with the thief.

Ask your primary care doctor about taking naltrexone, it's helped me cut down on alcohol intake considerably. My goal was not to abstain entirely so it might not be an option if that's your goal. Either way, good luck to you!

I go to the Northborough Walmart and Target. They’re right across the street from each other! Plus a bunch of other grocery stores, restaurants and shops along rt 9.
