“Store is nice and great customer service. Today, i was in the store and it was very busy. I watch a Major walkout the store without paying $35 using the self checkout. ? I told the young associate and he ran after him. The Major returned, an as expected played dumb, but acknowledgeed it was his charge, so he paid. Great store, but it needs better security or a good camera system that would decrease stealing attempts.”
“Re:Jordan and Ron Tom Thumb Shalimar So I go into the store today and the cashier‘s name is Ron and he’s super friendly super personable patient great guy right off the bat then I go to pay for my purchase and he says hey do you wanna put in your rewards number and I said yes, did you guys are all pretty intense about this rewards number and he says well they’re you know great benefits. I you know support it and I wanna share it with you guys and plus we get you know a chance to win a bonus for whoever gets the most rewards numbers entered so first of all I love that he’s promoting the product of the rewards that’s awesome. Second of all the fact that the company was taking time to reward those who do you promote this? Well then I’m telling him this and he says well actually it’s just my local store. It’s my boss and I said well that’s amazing and he said well. My boss is amazing like he’s just anything that he gets and reward any bonus you know he shares with us because he said he couldn’t have it without us and I was so impressed and so speechless. Actually, I am just because I wish every place around like that because then every place would run like the Tom Thumb does and when you walk in there would be a Ron at every counter so his boss wasn’t there at the time but I said I’m definitely doing a Google review on you guys and what’s your bosses name which is why I learned that Jordan was his boss, but I am overall amazing experience. I wasn’t having a good or bad day to find, but after I left there, I was in a great mood and ready to tackle the day so thank you Ron thank you Jordan and this is the store. I will always go to even if I have to go a little bit out of my way to get there”
“Well, if you need more than gas, this is a great place to go. You can get fried chicken. All kind of roller food plus they have Slush Puppy and Slurpee. And that's something you don't see hardly anywhere. Plus the normal snacks and things. You would need at a gas station.”
“Should have done this awhile ago, while it's a Cumberland now the employees are the same as always and they're always pleasant. Gas station is nice and it's my preferred stop. Really enjoy the food options.”
“Pretty average gas station. I usually don't review gas stations but this one is right up the street from me. Store is decently clean. Items are pretty stocked up. Everything is good except for the staff. The female manager (Jennifer) seems to be a little short with me whenever I asked her a question but I didn't take it to heart. Customer service is very big when you work with tons of people everyday. Hopefully it gets better since I live very close to this store. Will update soon if I notice changes. Overall good gas station.”
“Just went into the store and asked Karina for help because I’ve been having trouble getting the deal on the cheaper one pack of cigarettes anyways Karina was pleasant and polite. Patient and walked me through it until we finally figured out how to get that deal and what I’ve been doing wrong thank you Karina mad props to keep up the good work”
“Great neighborhood drugstore. Everyone so helpful & Pharmacy is always on top of things. Always keep an eye open for the buy one get one free deals for great savings. Get the Walgreens APP & follow ads, sales & specials.”
“When i think back over the hundreds of years I've been driving for lyft, and the 10s of millions of Chevrons I've pulled into... This one is my favorite. Thanks guys for making it special. ❤️”
“Jackie does a great job and is so nice. She helped us find our drinks we were looking for and she gave me her honest opinion of what sunglasses fit my face. This store is very convenient on the island. It makes our stay that much better and keeps us from sitting in traffic to get to publix across the bridge.”
“This is a very old store it’s been here my whole life but this store is very clean and relaxed , organized and the owner has excellent customer service skills. But his Kitty cat guards the door and he’s super friendly. I’m so happy they bought it and made it inviting and they carry a large tobacco and vape selection. And lots swag to go with your goodies. Great addition to the neighborhood”
“The ladies that work at this location in Target CVS are awesome! They treat you like family, and nowadays that is rare in a business. Thank you ladies for always being so kind.?”
“There's this guy that lives outside behind the dumpster and if you give him 60 cents or a king cobra beer he'll sing you a song or do a pirate's dance”
“Very nice people, great selection, they always have what I need, they have a huge selection of Vapes and they are reasonably priced, great service great coffee! They are the only store in town that still have 2 Powerades for $3, I'm so glad I live so close it is so convenient for me♥️”
“This chain never disappoints. Their store is always clean. The bathrooms always are pretty clean. They’re very good at keeping things stopped. They have a good selection of fresh baked goods and a great coffee bar. They have good slushy’s and a good soda selection. The pricing on the drinks is reasonable. I mean you can get for like $1.29. You can get the largest drink and it comes in a Styrofoam cup that will last a good solid 12 hours like it gives yeti cups a run for its money. The workers in the store are very courteous and the parking lot is actually very clean and feels very safe.”
“One of the few places I am able to get a specific allergy medicine (OTC). Great staff here who are always helpful. Plus I am always impressed, mystified, puzzled, with all of the different kinds of items that are available in a "pharmacy-drug store". They have everything from sunscreens to make up to beer & wine to snacks to prescription meds to toys. Downside: if it's made in China you'll probably find it here. Regardless, it's solid place for needed prescriptions and necessities, especially if you're in a hurry... Great hours and close to Home Depot (a regular stop for me).”
“Coke here all the time when out and about in the area and need something simple. Gets pretty busy during tourist season, but it’s clean and well stocked. Always be careful entering and exiting here as the customers can kind of be rude and cut you off or take a hard turn to try and get in. The staff is great and the area is right in the beginning of the tourist area of Fort Walton. Pretty good place.”
“Been going to this CVS for almost 30 years, won’t dare go to another!! The Pharmacist Amber, is an absolute delight and a pleasure every time I see her smiling face. Knows me and my name by heart, not once steered me wrong and has always been so supportive with every medical decision I’ve made. She has a special place in my heart for eternity. Thank you Amber for being who you are and believing in me always. It means the world to me knowing I’ve got you for every question and concern I’ll ever have. CVS!!!! Amazing job!!! Amber you are a rare gem Thank you!!!”
“The employees at the drive-up window at CVS on Beal Parkway are always very friendly & very helpful. I pick up a prescription every month and I have never had “basic” experience. They go above and beyond every time.”
“The bathrooms were extremely clean and the service was outstanding. Food is always good. Just make sure that's what you're in the mood for. Oh, they have TV's in the bathrooms!”
“Avery at Walgreens was absolutely amazing. They were incredibly helpful, patient, and kind throughout the entire experience. You can tell Avery genuinely cares about customers and takes pride in their work. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was done correctly and made the visit feel easy and stress-free. Customer service like this is hard to find, and Avery truly made a difference. Walgreens is lucky to have them!”
“I think they're very friendly and polite . The young people actually adjusted the product on the shelf so that I could reach it without asking for help . I like these employees .”
“I tore my rotator cuff and went in for a shoulder sling. They had exactly what I needed. Seems like a very typical CVS, clean and well stocked. The employee knew exactly where to direct me for what I needed.”
“Visiting from out of town and realized that I must not have packed critical medication. I only needed a couple of days worth, but wasn't due for a refill because I'd just had it filled. The pharmacist was incredibly accommodating and sweet. I would highly recommend this CVS if you live in the area or if you're just visiting.”
“Great place with a unique selection of cigarettes if you're into that. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. If they don't carry what you want, they will order it for you.”
