“It's great to have in town. Limited selection but overall can find everything you need to make a meal, snack or dessert. It is a scaled down version of Hy-Vee. We love being able to pop in and grab something we need without having to travel farther for a bigger store.”
“This BP station is one of those small-town spots that reminds you why people still appreciate locally run businesses. It isn’t a massive travel-center style gas station, but that’s exactly what gives it its charm. Everything about it feels easy, familiar, and relaxed. The moment you walk inside, you get that hometown energy — the kind where employees actually look up, smile, and acknowledge that you walked in. It’s a simple thing, but it makes a huge difference when you’re used to the rushed, impersonal service you get in bigger city stations. The store is always clean, organized, and stocked with exactly what I expect a good gas station to have, without feeling cluttered. The pumps work properly, the lot is easy to pull into even with a larger vehicle, and the lighting outside is bright enough to feel safe at night without being overwhelming. You can tell the owners take pride in keeping the property in good shape. What really stood out to me was just how friendly the staff were. No forced customer service voice, no pretending — just genuine people treating customers like neighbors. In a small town like ours, that means something. It’s the kind of place you don’t mind stopping at even when you’re not in a rush, because it never feels chaotic or uncomfortable. If you’re passing through or live nearby, this BP is the perfect example of what a small-town gas station should be: clean, friendly, consistent, and welcoming every time.”
“The fruit and Vegies are really fresh, more than other stores in the area! Meat is good. Their staff is helpful. I can usually find specific items I have on my list! Although there isn't a bakery onsite, it's fresh and tasty.”

“Convenient location and friendly staff. They were able to help me find what I needed. Was a bit messy, but that's not unexpected and it seemed like they were moving inventory around for spring.”
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.

Kroger broke ground on the Canal Winchester location on March 19 at the southeast corner of Diley Road and Greengate Boulevard.

On top of the new openings, Loblaw will renovate another 191 stores and continue construction on a roughly 1.2 million-square-foot automated distribution center in Caledon, Ontario.
