“This is my local store. Justin, Melissa, Jessica, and Sarah are the best! The employees at this store are always helpful and on task, it's always clean and if something isn't in stock, they will take the time to help you find a suitable replacement. Friendly and welcoming, this is definitely a good place to shop”
“I just shopped for the first time here last week. I live in Hattiesburg but I found it was well worth the drive. I will be back. The meat is fresh, produce is great and the selection of groceries are great. I found the employees quite friendly. I saw a couple negative reviews and I wanted to check it out for myself. I found the cashiers really nice and they waited on me pretty quickly. There was a lady behind the counter who was really friendly and the lady at the first register was really helpful, even offer me help when I got their Niagara water which wad only $1.99, wow. I fund the prices very good even with their 10% markup. I have worked in groceries stores before and that is not much of a markup. I find their prices great an their staff really helpful. Thanks to the lady that help me with my groceries to my car. Here I am writing a book. I am bad that way but I will end and saying, you can't go wrong with this little store. Two of my Facebook friends work there. I don't know them well but Vicky and Kim keep up the good work and the ladies at the first register last Thursday and the lady that sold me my money order, thank you.”
