“This is a very strategically placed store if you're heading south. Very easy to quick go in and grab a snack or beverage before heading down the highway. There are self-checkouts and the restrooms were clean.”
“Good produce. Better than shopping at Walmart. Love grabbing meat from here... It's always good and there's usually deals. Very good cuts of steak. I like their chicken grillers. I like that they added some self checkout lanes so people with just a few items can check themselves out.”
“We LOVE this place! My grandmother used to take me here as a little girl, and a decade(+) later I’m sharing the same experiences with my daughter finally. The prices are jaw dropping in fairness (like 0.25-1.25 usually for most items in singles), and it’s always a mix up of fun things you may find! We’ve always found meal staples, and delicious candies to tempt my daughter just as they did to me back in the day. They always have baking staples, almost anything and everything you could think of involving baking besides the pan? Don’t even bother questioning it- I promise you they’ll have it, and at a better price than anywhere you could find unless you’re simply making that staple ingredient yourself already. Bulk amounts included, or the usual pantry size as well. I’ve never had a complaint, and even if I did right above checkout in a bold and welcoming statement is “not happy with a product? Return it for a FULL refund!” Which is such an ease to the mind. Yes, some of their products dates are past due-but my family has noticed no difference. And with that in mind of what is above me as I checkout, I have no doubt that we’d be met with complete understanding and assistance if we ever did notice a product on its way to becoming “off” I Highly recommend the peach rings, I wish I took a picture to add but they didn’t even last the 10 minute ride home. You know what scratch that. All of the candy. I recommend all of the candy, to try all flavors/shapes of the gummies, all yogurt pretzel flavors, the chocolate salted caramels? A new favorite in our home. We plop them into our morning coffee, we nibble them during evening family time, we reach for them simply when bored from how addicting they are. The lovely Amish gals have always been welcoming, even going above and beyond when I requested to learn the same knowledge of my previous family for future help on our home, through word of mouth and making connections. Leroy gave wonderful directions, was very helpful, and I’m thankful for everybody there who we’ve had the chance to meet so far. This will forever be our go to store, it’s simply pure peace to shop there. And to hear beautiful singing while you shop? My daughter was mesmerized after begging to hear what music amish might enjoy during their day, and it truly completed the tranquility of their store. I’ve never felt so relaxed, not barely surviving on anxiety and begging for my shopping list to shorten itself in a crowded store. I-for the first time in years went outside of my list by easily three times the amount ? goodness I must’ve spent $60 my first time back out of pure enjoyment. It was more therapeutic than going “therapy shopping” for clothes at a mall. (And I know, typically a $60 grocery trip isn’t much. But for the amount of stuff you leave with? I felt as though I should’ve spent $200-250 at least.) Highly recommend! We will return for as long as my family is living out here. so for as long as either they operate, or until I drop ?”

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.
