“This is incorrectly identified as a "gas" station. They are a farm supply store that happens to sell fuel. Don't expect to fill up after hours! If you are a farmer or otherwise take care of plants or animals, they probably have what you need.”

“Madison has awesome customer service! She went over and beyond to help me! I was asking her about a discount on the app that didn't seem to come up on the register when I was first trying to purchase. She went to her personal app to make sure it was giving the discount correctly. After that, we tried it again, and my app discount showed up. I think I probably didn't give it enough time to add/process the coupon into the system all the way. Either way, Madison is the best! I hope she becomes a manager one day because she will be great at that position. Kudos Madison!!!”

“My family had to use the Monticello Walgreens for a rapid covid test for a cruise. Everyone but my wife got their tests done at this location. The pharmacist told us they would ONLY call if the test was positive and we would receive an email for the test results within 3 hours. A few hours later, the pharmacist called to let us know that the Walgreens reporting system went down everywhere, but she could enter it in by hand and email it to us, which she did promptly. Thank you so much for making our testing an easy one. Now the Walgreens in MAUMELLE is where my wife went. She was told 3 hours later, she would receive the results. Long story short, the MAUMELLE Walgreens closed, and never sent her the results, and the morning of the cruise she had to pay at the Port for a rapid test before entering the ship. Thank you again Walgreens in Monticello, the crew in MAUMELLE could learn a lot from your team.”

“To all the haters out there Jenkins is the best gas station to shop at and no one is rude everyone is friendly. Everyone has a bad day occasionally and the prices we can’t help because from contracts to making sure we stay in the sale margin the prices may vary but Jenkins is the best gas station to stop at everyday. Don’t let the haters dictate where you stop at you can make that decision for your own self. Have a nice day everyone hope to see a lot more friendly faces come to Jenkins”

“Lottery of service. You get rude and good cashiers. Food service slows things down. Not always easy to get in and out. Does provide ethanol and non-ethanol gas options.”
