“There was a young lady stocking the shelves and I asked her where to locate an item. She wasn't sure so she stopped what she was doing and walked all over the store to help me find it. I believe her name was Nalayza. Thank you for your kindness and for going above and beyond!!”
“I have visited this store multiple times before doing this review. This store is exceptionally clean, well stocked, and has outstanding customer service. All refrigerators, open coolers, and freezers were operating in acceptable ranges, I could not find a single perishable item beyond its expiration date. All staff were knowledgeable on product placement within the store. I asked multiple employees from cashiers to the meat cutters where the whip cream was located because it's not with the milk as in most stores. They all knew where this was located. Prices were across the board lower on name brand products as well as store brand products. I came at different times of the day and this store was always consistent with quality, customer service, and cleanliness. Even the parking lot was clean with no stray carts. If you do not live near this store it is well worth the drive to come here. Also cashier 0220 was outstanding and went the extra mile for me !”
“Christian at the deli is awesome. He always slices my deli meats and cheeses super thin. Just the way I like. He is so friendly and helpful. I try to hit the deli on days he is behind the counter”
“I’ve been to Nature’s Own Market a few times, and they almost always have what I’m looking for. They offer a great variety of items. Today, the customer service was stellar! In the past, it was a bit bland, but that’s not the norm. I also love that they highlight and display community health events.”
“This is now my favorite store. The people who work there are so nice. Not the fastest cashiers, but I am retired and am not in a hurry. They have most things I need, fresh produce, and good prices in comparison to some other places. I love the shop and earn, too.”
“My wife and I ventured out nice and early on a Sunday morning for our weekly grocery run at ALDI. Going early is definitely the way to go if you can. We beat the crowds, parking was easy, and just about everything was fully stocked, especially the meat section. If you wait until later in the day, you’ll often find some items picked over and popular meats sold out until the next restock. The store is conveniently located off NC-501 and shares a parking lot with the CVS next door, although traffic on NC-501 can get pretty busy depending on the time of day. If you’ve never shopped at ALDI before, remember to bring your own reusable bags and a quarter for the shopping cart. Their no-frills approach—including no traditional bakery or full-service bakery or butcher counter—is one of the reasons they’re able to keep prices so low. We usually stock up on ground beef, chicken, seafood, and a variety of other weekly essentials, and we’ve found the quality to be consistently good for the price. The store offers both self-checkout and traditional cashier lanes, so you can choose whichever works best for you. It’s clean, well organized, and makes for a quick shopping trip. The Aberdeen location is open daily from 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM, making it easy to fit a grocery run into your schedule. I definitely recommend shopping first thing in the morning if you want the best selection, fully stocked shelves, and a stress-free shopping experience.”
