“I stopped in to this mini mart which is a Mobil gas station; Dunkin Donut satellite; mini market; and a U-Haul dealer. I rented a cargo van to do a mini move and drove 130 miles. Soup to nuts, with insurance, and mileage fees was only $109. I couldn't be happier with the vehicle which only had 2,000 miles on the odometer, and the service I was provided from the manager. I will definitely come back.”
“Everything about this place is great. Tony is awesome, always very kind and respectful! They have a pretty good selection of items there.I would go about a dollar less on the ice cream...but that's on Ben & Jerry ;)”
“The bakery manager Amaya helped us so much and had great patience with all of our questions and very knowledgeable. store manger quality and should be noticed as a great leader not just a manger”
“This is probably my favorite Walmart that I've found in the Southern Connecticut/Fairfield County area so far! Having moved here from North Jersey, I was honestly pretty disappointed when I first started shopping at Walmart in my local town. I'm used to the larger Supercenters where you can get a full grocery shopping experience, produce, bakery, refrigerated and frozen foods, household items, clothing, etc., all under one roof. The first Walmart I visited here was much smaller and had a very limited grocery section, so it just wasn't what I was used to. I actually discovered the Naugatuck location because I mentioned this to a cashier at another Walmart, and she recommended that I try this one. I'm so glad she did! This location is much more like the Walmarts I'm familiar with from North Jersey. They have a large grocery section with fresh produce, bakery items, refrigerated and frozen foods, and then you still have the clothing, home, and other departments you'd expect from a Supercenter. It's really nice being able to get everything in one place. One thing that even surprised us was seeing a Charley’s inside the Walmart! 😂 We're used to seeing a Subway or sometimes nothing at all, so that was a fun little bonus. The only downside for us is the distance. It's about a 25–30 minute drive from where we live, so it's not somewhere we can just run to whenever we need a few things. But when we have the time to make the trip, this is definitely the Walmart I prefer. If you're in the Fairfield County/Southern Connecticut area and, like me, you've been disappointed by some of the smaller Walmarts around here, I would definitely recommend giving the Naugatuck location a try. If the drive is doable for you, it's worth it! Out of the Walmarts I've personally visited in this part of Connecticut, this one has come closest to giving me that true Super Walmart experience I'm used to.”
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 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.
