“Love this place! Fresh & great quality meat! My tastebuds are forever changed. Stop buying lab grown meat from chain grocery stores and support your local butcher!!”
“Nice old school butcher shop feel. The meat all looked great, and I'm definitely going to go back for some steaks! This time I got a 10 lb rump roast that they cut for me right then and there. Easy going staff, family owned atmosphere.”
“Clean and friendly. Besides standard Asian grocery items. They offer fresh produce geared towards Asian cooking. They have some cooking supplies/dishes geared towards Asian cooking. They have a small butcher section in back. They do prepare and sell some fresh Asian sauces, food and Asian baked goods near the counter.”
“I went to purchase a flag but ended up buying a bouquet of flowers. There was a slight language barrier, but the staff was very helpful. Although they didn't have exactly what I needed, they did have a suitable alternative.”
“Aldi: Where Your Wallet Wins and Your Taste Buds Do the Happy Dance Aldi is the grocery store equivalent of that friend who shows up to the party with snacks you never thought you’d love, but now you can’t stop raving about. It’s small, it’s quirky, and it’ll save you more money than you thought possible while still letting you walk out with a cart full of goodies. First, the prices. Let’s just say your bank account will send you a thank-you card. You can get gourmet-quality food for what it costs to get a sad sandwich at a regular grocery store. Aldi’s secret? A mix of private labels and smart shopping, meaning you can snag that organic peanut butter without having to sell a kidney. The store layout? Simple, straightforward, and no-nonsense. You won’t find yourself wandering through endless aisles of impulse buys (unless, of course, you get distracted by the amazing middle aisle, which is like a treasure chest of random stuff you didn’t know you needed). Quality-wise, Aldi doesn't mess around. Sure, it’s not as fancy as Whole Foods, but you’re getting great value without having to leave your dignity at the door. Their produce is fresh, their dairy is top-notch, and let’s not even get started on their frozen section—it’s like a frozen food wonderland. Final Verdict: Aldi is like the underdog of the grocery store world—unassuming, but secretly amazing. 4/5 stars—because it’s everything you want in a grocery store, with a side of delightful surprise.”
“I had a full cart and it didn't cost an arm and a leg! And I didn't have Hardly any junk food besides two bags of cereal! I believe the names of the cashier and baggers names were Hayden and Brian/Bryan. They had a very positive and professional demeanor and I loved it! You could tell they're well taken care of and spoke highly of the company! Will be back!”
“Love this place. Anywhere else, my week's worth of groceries is around $120. Here, it ranges around $80 per week. The seasonal offerings keep our week-night menu fresh.”
“The store is clean and packed with southeast Asian foods, dry foods, various kinds of rice, common fresh vegetables, spices. Easy access and ample space for parking.”
“We have been dealing with IGA for many years but ever since Claudina became the manager of the deli and Bakery the product is better, fresher and the customer service is outstanding from her. She even went to work on her day off just to make sure that the order for our church activity was done right and on time. Jeff, the GM, delivered the order to our event on time. You have an outstanding asset in Claudina!!!”

“The Van Laar family members are some of the hardest working people I've ever met. I love stopping in their shop and picking up a fresh loaf of bread and farm produce. A local staple.”
“We have been shopping at Schnucks for the past four months while we’ve been in town, and we have truly enjoyed every visit! Being from out of town, we weren’t sure what to expect, but Schnucks had everything we liked and needed. The deli is absolutely amazing, the food is great, and the prices are good all around. The coupon and rewards program is also awesome! We’ve been able to save money while getting the things we already shop for, which makes such a difference. The store is always clean, organized, and easy to shop. The staff has been consistently friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Unfortunately, we have to return home now, and honestly, Schnucks is one of the things we’re really going to miss. Thank you to everyone who made our four months of shopping here such a great experience. We will definitely miss this store and hope to visit Schnucks again whenever we’re back in the area! ❤”
“Great variety of candy, toys and beverages. Never seen a collection of goods quite like this. Loved the music they played! The staff was helpful. Minor critique....floor needs a thorough cleaning.”
“Outstanding supermarket. Fabulous curated selection of every imaginable food. Extraordinary produce department. Best meat and seafood departments. Worth a visit”
“I just want to tell you; the food is great. Tonight I went to get cheese beef; peppers, dipping sauce "wow" that was good; until next time. Have a great day”
“Great Woodmans gas station Friendly employees One of the cheapest places to get gas in the entire area of Rockford Illinois. Great car wash services and oil change. Free vacuums. Located near Perryville road and I-90.”
“I'm 60 and I'm mind blown each time I enter this establishment it's been here my entire life very small changes but I have older siblings and they say the same when its not broke don't fix it”
“Exceptional experience. Very friendly staff, great location and lots of product. I go for the sushi they have and love it. Very helpful and kind staff. I highly recommend City Center Market its a one stop shop.”
“My visit to Schnucks Rockford Plaza at 2642 Charles Street was quick and easy, featuring friendly staff, fresh produce, and a clean layout. They have good staff and their prices are cheaper than walmart (or from what I've seen) and they have excellent ready to buy food in store as well.”
“We had another great experience shopping at Schnucks during our four months in town. Since we’re from out of town, it was really nice to find a grocery store that carried so many of the foods and products we enjoy. The deli was fantastic, the food was always great, and the prices were very reasonable. We also really loved the coupon and rewards program—it’s a great way to save money, and we definitely took advantage of it while we were here! The store was clean, organized, and well stocked, and the staff was always friendly and helpful. Everyone made us feel welcome. We’re getting ready to head back home, and we’re honestly going to miss having Schnucks nearby. We’re so glad we discovered Schnucks during our time here and will definitely think of it fondly. Thank you for making our shopping experiences so enjoyable! ❤”
“Is a wonderful friendly place for trying to find obscure, specialty dishes and halal foods. Kebabs are awesome. Lots of great spices. A Halal deli. Colognes and perfumes frome the middle east, lots of imported goods. Store is in the process of expanding. More new exciting stuff. Prices are reasonable.”
“Chiquita consistently delivers high-quality products at competitive prices. Furthermore, the staff consistently provides exceptional customer service, from initial greeting to checkout. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment.”
“The first time I was in a Woodman's I was mind-blown at how massive they are ! To those outside of the midwest I wonder what your grocery store equivalent is ? I've never been in a Wegman's but I imagine it is something on that scale. Costco is large too but in a different way.Not sure what to add about this Woodman's but I am always in awwww of how much there is here ! Hope the pic tour encourages you to find and share your surprises in here too !”
“The store was really filled! Had everything I needed! Was clean! I was looking for something. I asked a gentleman that's been working there since the day they opened. And he wouldn't acknowledge me. The people he was talking to was talking with there kids jumping in and out of boxes and I just needed help finding ice cream cones. I just don't think that' not good customer service. The same night. When I checked out. I didn't want or needed a bag. The cashier told me I had to pay and can't refund me.”
“This dollar general is like going to the circus that comes once a year ? except it’s everyday here!?? Love the characters that come in and out of here!??”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
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. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
