“It's the neighborhood convenience store open 24/7 for any last minute necessity. Don't ask a question, the attendants never have a clue about anything, even in their own business field but they're nice and polite”

“I remember when this shop first opened Real good genuine people I even passed out free waters for them. They donate food to the community is a type of store that you always wanna come into even if they don’t have what you got you will still buy something just because of it’s genuine.”

“I rarely ever leave reviews, even good ones, but I really have to give my kudos to the owner and his son (I think, haha!) They are the kindest people I have met in DeKalb so far, and they have helped me with things beyond shopping. The owner particularly has gone out of his way to help me with two very specific and unrelated problems I’ve had, and has shown me incredible compassion when he very reasonably could have turned me down. Not to mention they have pretty much everything you could need! I was able to grab laundry detergent and even a small dust pan at very affordable prices. They’re absolutely the place to go for convenience, and have a pretty decent selection of groceries and other household goods. I frequent this store not only because of that, but as a way to support them back for how lovely they have been to me. Thank you guys!!! :)”

“Love em or hate em, the people working here are the backbone of the community literally. Your kids would not be eating as much if this Casey's wasn't run like a US Navy Command post. To fight with another reviewer, you sure you're not the racist one? I don't care if they're happy, responsive or kind to be honest. These people stack bread rain and shine here, and provide what I consider an essential service. Every black woman in there would fight tigers and bears to keep their jobs and feed their kids. Their follow of procedure and shortness of service reflect that wholeheartedly. The dudes in the back follow good food safety practice and make decent pizza and to me? That's excellent service on Annie Glidden ?”

“There is a woman who works here and is truly the nicest person. I was a little overwhelmed with the extra care rewards, that I was already a member of, and she helped me learn how to use it. She was so kind and patient and I saved so much money. On another visit, I had to drop off a UPS package today and I encountered her again (I didn’t grab her name) but again couldn’t be friendlier or more helpful.”

“I've been going to this walgreens for 4 years and not have had a reason to write a review until now. I wish I had paid attention to their names but I know they will know who they are. My run in experience was an actual experience. We found what we needed, got the help we needed when asked, and the very pleasent woman that helped us gave us information that would be helpful for next time. It made me feel comfortable and not afraid to ask or need something. You know how in walmart or jewel some will scoff and help because it's their job. Well, i guess here they are happy to help. The checkout lady had the most gorgeous hair. She created conversation as well as placing our items in bags that were perfect for them. We had to walk up the stairs and she double badges the heavy items. Some cashiers won't. I really appreciate you both! Thank you! ❤️”

“I don't know why people are giving this place in 1 star review they must have been rude to the people that work there. Never had a bad experience with them at all.”

“True patriots!! They worked with me through the VA so I didn't have to drive 2 hours with pneumonia for medical. It was allot more work for them then an average civilian pick up. They helped me with great haste, happiness, and kindness. Walgreens refused to work with the VA and support combat vets. Like I said CVS=patriots. I no longer will give business to walgreens and I've already spread word to my fellow veterans, CVS, not walgreens.”

“Fas mart isn't fas mart anymore. It was bought. Not sure what it will he called now and I'm not sure who bought it but my cashier when I stopped by today was a complete sweetheart. Excited to see how they do.”

“I went to Casey's to fill up my tires with air, the air pump didn't seem to take quarters and all I had was card. The Assistant Manager by the name of Roman was so kind and payed for my air! He even put the air in my tires for me. He was so helpful and polite. I'm almost 90 years old and it's hard for me to bend down to put air in my tires but this young man saved the day going above and beyond for to help me. He deserves some sort of recognition so I'm leaving this review just for him. Thanks Roman!”

“The blonde woman behind the counter with blonde hair (kinda curly?) late 30s-40s I think? Anyways, she is SO darling and brought such happiness to our day. Super helpful as well”
