“I have to give a huge shoutout to Sage at Casey’s General Store in Hurst, Illinois located off of Cambria Rd. (Hurts). Every time I stop in, he is incredibly personable with customers and makes the whole experience enjoyable. He actually remembers my order, which really says a lot about the level of care he puts into his job. He is always in a great mood and makes me feel even more at home. Sage always has a great sense of humor and keeps things light while still making sure everything is made exactly right. Whether he is making your pizza or simply ringing you out at the register. You can tell he genuinely wants customers to leave happy and we well, we always do. It’s rare to find service this friendly and consistent these days. If you’re in Hurst and stopping by Casey’s, you’ll know you’re in good hands when Sage is working!”

“I love this store. The people who own it and work here are so nice and from what I can tell, they make everyone feel welcome and comfortable. They have items I sometimes need after other stores are closed and they have good cigarette prices. The prices on other things are pretty good alsonl for an independent store this size. I also like that you can find food and drinks from other countries. I needed ice one time when the ice machine was broken and they bagged up some ice for me. Another time I was having trouble with my debit card and couldn't pay for the entire purchase for some reason. As I was fumbling for change in my purse, he gave me my item for the portion I had already paid. They are just great, good people.”

“I recently visited a Circle K gas station and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. From the moment I pulled in, everything about this location exceeded my expectations. First, the cleanliness stood out. The parking lot and fueling areas were spotless, free from litter and debris. The convenience store was equally immaculate, with well-organized shelves and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and a genuine offer to assist me. The cashier was efficient and courteous, making the checkout process quick and pleasant. What really set this Circle K apart was the variety and quality of products available. The convenience store had an impressive selection of snacks, beverages, and even some healthy options that are often hard to find at other gas stations. The coffee station was particularly noteworthy, offering a wide range of freshly brewed options and plenty of add-ons to customize your drink just the way you like it. The fueling experience was equally positive. The pumps were modern and well-maintained, with easy-to-read screens and clean nozzles. The prices were competitive, which is always a plus. Overall, this Circle K gas station provided an exceptional experience. The combination of cleanliness, friendly service, and a wide selection of quality products made it a standout. I highly recommend this location to anyone in need of fuel or a quick stop for refreshments.”

“The new guy in the pharmacy drive through window isn’t very friendly. He’s definitely someone who needs to work in the back and not directly with customers. He’s not done anything bad in particular, but he would be much better suited in a storage room or a basement or something. Four stars because this Walgreens is great. One star deducted for pharmacy man.”

“My late Sunday night visit to the Carbondale Wal-greens nearest SIU was quick and complete. But I ran into a complication that took a little bit longer to handle and the two Wal-Greens’ personnel were kind, patient and helpful. I believe the two personnel were named April (she just transferred to this location) and a white gentleman who was working the register. ROCKSTARS! Thank you”
