“From the stores cleanliness to the workers this is my favorite Trader Joe’s. I made a mistake by going to the Chico one where the workers were really rude. I couldn’t believe it. lesson learned truly if you want to just grocery shopping in peace where the workers are really friendly and don’t treat you like you are a moron for asking a simple question and not in a bad mood I would just come to the Redding Trader Joe’s. Everyone is allowed to have bad days, but what people are not allowed is to take those bad days out on people. anyways my favorite Trader Joe’s is in Redding hands-down I love all the workers so friendly and the place is so clean. I needed to leave this review so the workers know they are seen and appreciated”
“After trying to afford groceries in Trinity County this place is a miracle. The food is always fresh the prices are excellent the service is wonderful. I've never been there when I didn't see a smiling face behind the register. They're always willing to go the extra mile to help. Great place to shop!”
“I was in there the other day looking for some stuff for a work function that I may have forgot about 😅 and Dena was such a massive help finding everything I needed.”
“The folks down at grocery outlet are always so kind, helpful and friendly. But this time a cashier by the name of Sylvia went above and beyond to ensure our shopping experience was exemplary. My wife and I would like to show our gratitude and appreciation for everyone down at our local grocery outlet.”
“It’s a good family friendly store to run in and out of cheap gas and it’s right on the side of the road so it’s easy access. Everybody loves Clear Creek market.”
“I love this new store! So close to my house and so convenient. The precut fruit is amazing here and of course everyone loves a good holiday sandwich with the famous Dutch crunch bread. The staff here is amazing!”
“We always enjoy the Friday trip-tip sandwiches, the meat is ways tender and delicious! So when it came time to smoke up some tri-tips for my father-in-law's 87th birthday celebration I picked up three large tri-tips from their meat counter. They absolutely did not disappoint! They came out tender and juicy from my wood fired smoker! Everyone in attendance was thrilled with the results! Thanks Kent's Meats for the quality meat for the occasion!”
“the woman working was really nice and asked us what we were looking for and showed us where in the store it was. she also gave us multiple recipe recommendations”
“This store is for the hard working under paid ! Prices say it all! And the success of this employee owned company that shares there profits with the workers that make it successful. Lower prices for groceries then any other large scale grocery chains. Proof I think that merging companies absolutely does not make lower prices for customers. WinCo beats them all ! And does it all by them self's! Kroger is a good example. Buy six party size bags of chips or mustard and get 1 free or half off. And don't forget the digital coupons! Shit I forgot my phone in the car damn. So much for the .50 eggs. Keeping track of paper adds and one day sales,must buy 3 gallons milk to save a couple dollars , 3 or 4 cases coke etc to get discounted or free one, oh and then the tricky all mighty digital coupons prices that trick you into thinking you getting a super deal. WinCo they just don't mess Found with all the tricky consumer comics. They have the lowest prices with no BS. Just saying find out for your self and shop at WinCo, convenient hrs too. They don't close. Doors on ether end always open. No walking to the wrong end of store and the doors you came in on are locked up. Merged giant company's cost jobs and deplete and take out competition once they're gone prices go back up. WinCo isn't greedy like others that blame higher prices on inflation like on local milk,eggs,butter. Just keep up with all greedy companies. Our local products are not tariffed and a dollar more diesel a gallon does not hurt reginal and local or long haul carriers so much as they blame it all on! A truck load of groceries go up by thousands $ when reality is the semi truck cost coast to coast up 6 or 7 hundred. It's all greed. Shop WinCo Sorry I got a bit carried away people!”
“***Britnie*** is the absolute sweetest & friendliest employee there. Always cheerful and has great customer service skills, even remembers our familys favorite items each time. Kylie, is also nice and there both very helpful each month we go pick up wic groceries.”
“I've been going to this store for 17 years now. They have gone thru many employees and much needed recent updates and remodeling. The employees are pretty nice and they know their regulars and they keep the store pretty clean. It's convenient if you live in the area because it's the only one around for a mile or 2.”
“Great people work there. I dropped my wallet in the parking lot yesterday.I came back today and it was right behind the counter.Talk about honest people. Everything was still in there.”
“BJ’s is our go to store not only do they have everything we need but they treat us like family. Can’t ask for anything better than to go some place and have them say good morning Kathryn, using your first name, they know us and we’re friends. Great store!!”
“This is my favorite place. To have a general store full of everything you need with reasonable prices,even better than large box stores,they have brought so many stores to shasta county ,the best are in rural areas where customers can afford to buy something for their families and not break the bank”
“Neighborhood corner market brings the purist American spirit. The local owner is one of the most approachable nicest small business owners putting forth the effort to treat his community with pleasant, helpful customer service and a feeling of the good ole days. We stopped in to have a bbq sandwich in honor of Veterans Day. The tri tip sandwich was like having one at grandpas! No therapist is as good as a great neighborhood market clerk!”
“Best produce in town. Strange check out procedures is the only reason I don't give 5 stars. Rarely do they have more than 1 check out open. The lines get long”
“It's a typical liquor store family owned business. There is deli foods and typical brands of alcohol/tobacco and food products as well as a small assortment of canned and non perishable food options. The family that works at this location have owned other stores for many years and are known to be honest and reputable in business.”
“I had a really rough week and wanted to pick up sandwiches for me and my poor sister (who has the flu) after locking myself out of work and dropping my busted car off at the shop all in 1 morning. When I got to the counter, I realized there was something weird about my sandwich order and called my sister to double check. Jodi (I am sure I'm spelling her name wrong) at the sandwich counter heard my confusion on the phone, and stopped to check on me. I told her there were twice as many sandwiches in my bag than I wanted and it looked like the order got duplicated. She dropped everything she was doing to help me. Together we looked for a manager to help. While we were looking, Jodi got asked a question by another customer and helped them quickly and efficiently. She was extremely friendly and handled the question with grace and patience despite being busy with me. We fixed the mistake and I only paid for the 2 sandwiches I wanted. Shout out to Jodi for that because I'm about to be broke after I pick my car up. I hope someone behind the counter got the extra 2 sandwiches for lunch :) This story is just one of many good ones I have about interactions with employees at this location. I come here often because it's down the street from my office. The customer service is always incredible, and the store is always extremely clean. Thank you all!!”
“We have been going here for years.I tell everyone who loves tamales that these are the best in the west!!And when your there don’t forget to say hi to Ernesto.He always gives us great customer service and fills your pico de gallo to the rim.Thank you Carrilos.”
“Gas prices are average to high. Pump setup is great. The store itself gets a markdown one star because their selection of cooler beverages is often lacking particular brands or flavors that should be there but rarely are...in spite of this, they have a great beer cave with more exotic flavors or varieties you may not find at the grocery store.Four stars is for the awesome staff, clean store, and they serve some great breakfast burritos in the morning, or a nice snack like pizza sticks or chicken strips around lunch. They even take the effort to provide a selection of dipping sauces. The fountain selection is regular but another highlight is they always have frazil, very important for a hot day, delicious slushe! Doughnuts delivered daily. They close early Sunday.”
“So grateful to have a grocery store that supports WIC in their drive thru. So convenient when you have two little ones sleeping in the car!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!”
“Absolutely hands down the best grocery store in Redding for variety and quality. When cost is not a factor Raleys is the place to be. I have found unique foods in every department that has me constantly scouring the store to find whats new and exciting. I will say I have found killer deals to go hand in hand with uniqueness. Steve is an amazing Store Manager who has made this store so successful.”
“We were visiting family and stopped by for groceries. Candace was the cashier assisting us. She was very friendly and welcoming. We purchased several items for the weekend and she was patient while us checking us out and gave us recipes. We will return just to see Candace again. The store is also very clean and organized.”
“Needed a CDCR check vashed and he cashed it no problem made things super simple and quick no stress! And was able to grab something to drink and if needed could have got a pretty wide variety of things!”
“Had a issue Owner contacted me i still believe their buttons need to be marked better and when there's 3 buttons 87 89 91 octane the higher octane are to the right in succession small to big so it was partially my error and there marking and layout of buttons for their response time and help i will change my review from 1 star to 4 since customers do matter at this store thank you”
“This great Save Mart has a super nice meat department with good looking cuts all displayed attractively. Prime grades are pricey but that's what you get. The service from the butcher was friendly and he wrapped the meat well. For Saturday night dinner, I got a prime grade rib eye and a choice grade filet Mignon. I had a BBQ expert do the cooking, perfect med rare edge to edge, no brown parts! Even though it was sort of pricey, these were some super tasty steaks and I'm glad to have this Save Mart here in Redding.”
“Take a short stumble down to fast track to see the friendly and sexy staff . A wide variety of beer and liquor will keep your spirits high and your eyes crossed.All food is prepared by their five stay cheifs on staff. Highly recommend, "would visit again"”
“I just mentioned this gas station in a post about Valero and their $6.09 a gallon gas....it's only $5.09 a gallon at Safeway....maybe if we could take Safeway into working with Shasta College in Redding....students could go further on the gas cards they recieve”
“It is Sunday 9/20/25 6:30pm. The gentleman at the counter is by himself and got 13 people through the line efficiently and was a pleasure to talk to. You guys better check this and promote him or give him a raise”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
