“AAFES Express is a very convenient option for the HMR community. It's like a standard shopette with a boost of stuff. I was in the area and hoped that the lines would be short so I wouldn't have to deal with the schofield lines, and it worked out. They have your standard shopette fare, drinks, candy, alcohol, and a limited supply of basic household things that a shopper might need to grab on the fly!”

“Most convenient quick stop on the way down to North Shore. Is the gas cheap? Nope. But it's of convenience that we frequent this location. They have an array of candy. Some remind me of the ones you could get from Whitmore Manapua man. Sometimes the pumps and parking stalls are packed and at other times we get lucky. Cashiers are straightforward and not friendly at all. A smile could change your whole day aunty.”

“Aloha gas Island Mart if you don't have time to go to Costco the next cheapest gas would be any Aloha gas station . If your a Foodland Maikai member just show the cashier your app and by paying cash only they will give you a 5cents discount. Nowadays every little helps because if the War in Ukraine keep going on our gas prices are going to keep going higher . So probably by this summer I predict it could by almost at $10 a gallon wow! Time to carpool or catch the bus lol”

“This is my go to 7-11. I go to this store and the other on kam hwy in Wahiawa once a day sometimes two or three times a day. We have to have ice at home and since we live in Whitmore we stop by to get our supplies before going home. We get the musubi, sandwhiches, drinks, and ice cream. I like their corn bread, Spanish rolls and pianamo rolls for breakfast with coffee. Very convenient when you are in a rush. Not to mention gas. Also customer service is awesome as the Aunties all know us since we been going there for years. Ever since my youngest daughter was in school, My husband used to take her there for after school snacks.”
