“Mike’s market is a great place to shop! Yes, it is a little more expensive than going to a big grocery chain, but that is to be expected when it is the only grocery store in town. They are convenient and when I’m short on something it’s a quick drive there and back. They usually have everything I need. They also do a lot for the small community of Bismarck. I would recommend to anyone.”
“The staff there are all great. They are overworked to say the least. I believe a company that wealthy, could surely afford to hire staff to come in and stock shelves and put away the supplies. Instead, they rely on the 2 cashiers they have per shift to handle customers and handle stocking. It is nearly all females that work down there, and stocking some of the items is difficult for them. Perhaps if Dollar General cared more for the employees they would have a lower turn over rate.”
“It's a very clean store with discounted prices. At checkout, you can also get some free items they have set aside. I got 2 loaves of bread, and 2 small containers of Choban yogurt. Just make sure to watch the expiration date on items. BTW, they also had a few toys there that were nice.”
“The assistant manager Elizabeth is a very great employee that truly cares about her customers as well as her store. She works very hard to create a great shopping experience for everyone who enters.”
“The PARK HILLS store is fantastic! Since I was wrongfully banned from Farmington HARPS (see other reviews) I had to go to Park hills as my husband and I do all the shopping for my disabled parents and there are items that I can only get at Harps, unfortunately. But, the PH store was fabulous and clean. Plus side is...no one bullied me online after I left!”
“Love the surprise coupons on random products. Just because. You have to look for them on Wednesday and Sundays. 1$ off and sometimes 50% off. They won't scan that way, you have to call attendant, better off just going to regular checkout line because you'll have to call them over regardless.”
“Great staff. I will say that I see way to many empty slots where products should be. Often, I can not buy what I need as shelves are empty. This is a relatively new store and manager says they don't order, but the home office does. Really frustrating. Thanks”
“This is my store. Idc how far I have to drive. Nick is absolutely, hands down the best employee, then Dan. Love Sarah. They are always going above and beyond for me and my kids. Keep up the good work.”
“The Manager there is VERY knowledgeable and very HELPFUL, she tries to run a great store and after the remodel it is an even better place to find what you need. GREAT PLACE>>”
“Very friendly and great customer service! I will absolutely be coming back to this Dollar General again. Very well stocked and had everything that I needed. Thank you so much for everything!”
“I have updated my review from 1 star, to 5. As a forest native, I’m happy to report that with The recent new remodel this Summer 2024, comes a cleaner and more organized store. I personally enjoy the Autumn & holiday inspired mugs, & appreciate that they arent all religious themed. They are very well made, & im slowly growing my collection. Something I’d like to touch on specifically, is a product we’ve had to avoid for the past 7 years now.. which is your bread. Before the remodel, the bread specifically tasted as if you were storing it with the strongest of fabric softener. I’m very happy to say that all of the BREAD items now sold at Dollar General in pilot knob NO LONGER TASTES OF FABRIC SOFTENER. Its is now Clean fluffy fresh bread. Used to, we’d have to make a separate trip all the way to Save A Lot just to pick up bread items because of this issue. I am also happy with the selection that I was presented with, and the cleaner store. But mainly, & most importantly, The Friendlier staff. The cashier who checked us out, was very friendly, courteous, and funny. He took care with my items and related to how good the Ramen was that my husband picked up for me. I enjoyed my trip this time. And I hope it stays like this. I would like to request If I may, that you keep a better stock of your smiles butterscotch discs, Your shin black Ramen packets, And if you could find Southgate Brunswick stew and beef stew, I wouldn’t have a reason to go to Town & Country anymore. I’m very thankful that I no longer have to go across town just to get bread. And I’m also pleased to report, that no employee was high. lol giving a more stress free grocery trip. thank you?”
“The girls that work at the cadet store keep it so nice and clean some of the other store should take note but we wouldn't want to mention any other stores by name Farmington”
“It's Walmart come on, just about has everything! I love the Walmart + it helps me with everything I need. I can get delivery or curbside or shipping. I love it dont know what i would do without it! It also has alot of perks for doing walmart+”
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.
