“Let me tell y’all somethin’ right now: Rural King is like the redneck version of Disney World, only with more mud boots and less mouse ears. I walked in there for a bag of dog food and walked out with a machete, three ratchet straps, a 50-pound salt block, a bag of popcorn, and a flamingo pool float. I don't even got a pool. That store's got everything from baby chicks to camouflage lingerie (okay maybe not, but it should). The minute them automatic doors whooshed open and I smelled tractor grease and stale popcorn, I knew I was home. It's like heaven had a baby with a barn and stocked it with guns, boots, candy by the pound, and chainsaws you didn’t know you needed but suddenly had to have. Now, I got one beef with 'em: the damn chick bin. Every dang time we go in, my wife beelinin’ straight to them peepin’ little fluff nuggets like she’s Snow White with a debit card. She can’t resist ‘em. I’m out here tryin’ to get hydraulic fluid and she’s already named twelve chicks and is askin’ if we can build 'em bunk beds. Rural King, I love ya, but for the love of my wallet and sanity, can we get a “Wife-B-Gone” spray aisle? Maybe throw some razor wire and a mild electric fence ‘round the chick section so I don’t end up explainin’ to my accountant why we now own 37 hens named after country singers. 10 outta 10, would lose money there again.”

“I like the reward program to earn free stuff like gift cards and food or gas. Use your speedway card every time you shop and earn points and they have fountain pop which I like better then in a can or bottle.”

“Mike is a very good guy. I've known him for years and he knows about everyone locally or your family. Everyone likes going to him cause he is very friendly and he has cheapest prices. He is a small business that didn't change the way he does business. If you need something ask him cause he will do his best to help. Some took advantage of his kindness and some don't forget his kindness. If your in town and need cigarettes , alcohol, check cashed, etc. You go their you will be greeted and met with Mike Marchis most of the time.”

“Convenient quick stop for fuel and, snacks. Wanted to update my review. I stop here almost daily Monday-Friday on my way to work. The store is always clean and, I just can't say enough good things about the morning staff. They are amazing and, friendly. It's the best station along my route and, I pass along a lot on my way to AEP mountaineer. But, I always choose this station as my morning stop to pick up whatever I need. Thanks for hiring such a fantastic crew and, always having a clean store. One day they even had a pepperoni pizza instead of the delicous breakfast pizza fixed. I noticed it sold out immediately. Hope they make this a regular thing. I enjoyed a slice on my way to work. The pizza was the bomb. I would have never thought pepperoni pizza for breakfast but, glad I got to try it.”
