“The people here was extremely nice and very polite the store was well-maintained and many had a little trouble getting through one of the hours but that may have been my big but not theirs really enjoyed shopping there looking forward to going back”
“Probably one of my favorite places to stop on my way through town on my motorcycle going to Hamilton from Richmond! They make amazing food and have tons of options for decent pricing.”
“Most friendliest, earth-conscious, coolest, cutest store in Oxford! Amazing variety of products, extremely helpful staff, and the good folks who make all the delicious, healthy soups are my favorite people on earth. If I could give Moon 100 stars I surely would!”
“This store has very nice employees. Lots of merchandise to choose from. There was quite a few big boxes in different aisles I think for restocking. Those boxes made it very difficult to get around the store. I also was unable to see or reach a few items. I would recommend a little more organization or restock after hours.”
“My husband, kids and I went to this specific Walmart to buy a Blackstone griddle as the one closest to us did not have the one we desired. A fella named Tyler was working the garden/outdoor area and was THE biggest help. So friendly! He helped us put everything we bought in our vehicle! This man needs a raise. He is an asset to this Walmart. Such a friendly person . Thank you Tyler, our family appreciates all the help you gave us!”
“Rachel, from the pharmacy, was so helpful, patient and kind. She helped me look for a specific supplement outside the pharmacy and worked to make sure we were charged properly for a prescription that ended up being more expensive than what we were used to. Thank you, Rachel”
“Hi! I stopped into the Express Handwash station today and KDS express did not disappoint me. They were all professional and worked hard and getting all dirt and bugs off of my car from the weekend travel. The price was on point in comparison to Shell On Ridgewood..I get a different price every time I go. ? thanks KDS..I will be back next week. Cami Hill”
“I stop here at least twice a week. My oasis. Here you'll find frozen meals for a quick supper, fresh milk, eggs, butter, bread; packaged cold cuts, good selection of canned goods and condiments; household essentials like ice trays, can opener, salt & pepper; chips, dips, and salsa, beef sticks, snack cake, nuts & pretzels; ice cream; microwave ready burgers/chicken sammies; soft drinks galore, beer, wine, lower proof liquor, bulk tobacco, cigarettes (some of the really good cheapo brands), little cigars, vapes; lottery scratch-offs. Prices are reasonable. The counter guys are nice and friendly. I'm sure I missed something. Oh yeah, there's always a bunch of bananas at checkout. I probably still missed something. Come on in and see for yourself.”
“please recognize Christina and Hannah for providing the best pharmacy experience...ALWAYS patient, caring and kind. Pharmacy staff members are the UNSUNG HEROES of the medical system, and these 2 professionals are no exception...thank you CHRISTINA & HANNAH :-)”
“Dig it. I get a dollar off every time I go... But do you know why? B/C I can't go in the grocery store without spending $300. Inflation and the Fed is bringing the middle class to it's knees. cmon' RFK!!! Save us!!!”
“My daughters and I stopped for a quick lunch. Our foid arrived quickly and the quinoa bowl was delicious. The owner, Cody, was extremely friendly! We will definitely be back.”
“I know the owner of this Marathon/Food Mart, and he is a good man. He is an excellent cook; the burgers are very good; made to order. He has great customer service. He is professional and very friendly. When you stop in, there is a small town, "down home" atmosphere. The price of gasoline is very competitive, and not just in Gratis, but in all of Preble County. Actually, the prices on everything in the store are competitive with any other place in the area. And that is not easy to do compared with the larger stores/gas stations, but he does it. The store is very clean considering that it is an older building. I have not ever seen it dirty; always clean floors, coolers, shelves, etc. I know that the owner takes pride in the cleanliness of his store. And the outside of the store is kept clean as well. The building could use a fresh coat of paint, but even so it is not that bad. The coolers are well stocked, and with a nice variety of products. The shelves also are well stocked, and considering the size of the store, he does a good job keeping them that way. Some of the smaller shelves may seem to be half empty, but that's to be expected when they contain some of the best selling products. Overall, I recommend stopping for gasoline (at good prices), or any other things that you may need from the store. It's a good place for a quick stop (cigarettes, snacks, drinks, alcohol) or even a fresh burger! The service is excellent, and you will not be disappointed. Stop in and support your locally owned establishment. Your business is greatly appreciated, and you will always get service with a smile.”
“When time is short and you need something quickly, this is a good place to stop. It is the only such store in West Alexandria, so there is no competition. At one time there was another "Dollar" store in town. It was a locally owned store; much smaller than Dollar General. The prices were really good at the other place, but they could not compete with the much larger (and varied) inventory of Dollar General. I hated to see the other store close. The owner held out as long as possible, but the closure was inevitable. That being said, it is good to have Dollar General in West Alexandria; saves having to drive to one in another town.”
“I recently made an order for pickup in the deli department on mother's day. When I got there some how my order wasn't ready and, some how lost. I was about to have a meltdown in the crying way because the day was not going well already. The staff quickly fixed the mistake and made everything right. I later received a phone call apology from the deli manager. I give the Eaton Krogers an A1-5 stars in good customer service. Mistake are made sometimes. Fixing the mistake is the kind of customer service that business should all try to do. Thanks Eaton Krogers!”
“Christina is the sweetest and most helpful pharmacist EVER! Through her hard work and dedication, she helped me save over $100 on my meds :D she absolutely made my day, such a friendly person and she made me smile all through the phone call!! Shoutout Christina, somebody give her a raise !”
“Good place to go for those last minute items you forgot at the grocery store! I was surprised at some of the items they do have because I hadn't been there for awhile. They have added to their inventory!! And !ike the name says.....Dollar general.....prices are really very affordable!! And every time I have been in there, the employees are very friendly!”
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.

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.
