Department Stores in Shenandoah, IA

“If you go to this store with super high expectations you may be dissatisfied, however, when you think of it as a relatively small town walmart experience it's great. They have most necessities and household supplies. (More by far than hyvee for example) It's super nice to have this right down the road. I have been impressed by the cashiers as well. Of course if you are a grump they might not seem super friendly either, but a little kindness goes a long way. I have two small children and it is very rare to go through checkout without serval different employees offering to help me load things onto the checkout belt, get an extra cart, help me out, or help load my groceries. You don't find that at every Walmart. It definitely makes shopping with children a little less daunting to know that people understand and are willing to help! I have been somewhat disappointed with their fruit at times, however, there is usually at least some higher quality options. Better than having to take the kids into two stores, right? I use their pharmacy for everything as well. I am terrible at remembering refills and, embarrassing enough,there have been serval times I have just one pill left and I call in and they have gone out of their way to make sure I can get it by the next day. As stated earlier, a little kindness and understanding goes a long way. These people are just doing their jobs. Most of them probably didn't dream of working at a Walmart and aren't getting paid what they should be. Many times there aren't enough employees to go around and many of them have to work extra hours to cover. Be a bright spot in their day!”
